It also has a built-in AV1 Decoder! This is the first time Apple has indicated they're going to start using AV1!

The video side of things is super interesting - 4k60 ProRes is an absolutely insane amount of data (something like 12GB/s IIRC?), and the addition of ACES really makes it usable for professional work where a larger mirrorless from Sony/Panasonic/Nikon/Canon wouldn't be practical.

I also found it very interesting that their pics of this feature were with Davinci Resolve on the screen and not Final cut Pro - I guess when it comes to colour, there's no better tool.

Are you serious on 12 GB/s? Does the memory even have that much bandwidth?
Google says it's 12Gbps
Oops, yes indeed! Was working from memory and should’ve checked.
Oh it’s Gbps not GBps.
