Did…Did he give the answer in the first 30 seconds…..RESPECT 😂still watching the full video tho
Hey! Thank you for not being a complainer like a lot of the folks reviewing these today. So much nitpicking. You’re very positive and helpful. It’s appreciated
Exactly, he's always very positive. Even when he's discussing a downside he doesn't get harsh with his criticisms.
Thank you so much for this video! It is so helpful just to watch how editing is done.
Impressive H.265 render times for an "entry level" machine. That little tiny chip is awesome!
Oh yes! My M1 MacBook Air renders video in just one third of the time it'd take to render the same video on my 2012 quad-core i7 Mac Mini desktop!
Alternative title: *12 minutes of Gary editing a video on his new iMac*
Thanks for the awesome video Gary! Really enjoyed seeing your editing process because I don’t know much about it. 👌🙂
The moment you want to buy one of these macs but you know you don't need it.
Honestly me with the 16 inch macbook m1s

The new iPad Pro is a better buy... 120hz XDR is insane
@@conrado800 Nah!
@@conrado800 Let’s get both. 😎
Thanks for making this. I was set on waiting for the presumed higher-end iMac, but now I’m definitely rethinking!
I believe you’re the only review for now that does treat this computer as a real iMac( the beast) and not as a cute-coloured souvenir to put on the desk.
this is why you are my new or going forward fave tech reviewer. Please, let me preface by saying my intention is not to rip on other reviewers. you have appeared with these other people on pods or panels. You guys are smart to stick together vs compete as the space is getting super crowded. I LOVE LOVE what you just did. you reviewed this iMac by doing something you would ACTUALLY do on it. I own a small agency and right now we are all using m1 mba and we ordered iMacs. The mba with the m1 does everything we want and more. It does graphic design, web, video editing. I do not need to know the Geekbench. Now I will say all apps I am using now are M1 native (BYE BYE ADOBE!) and they are so snappy. anyways just wanted to sa thanks and enjoy how you geek out without geeking out in a way that if the design is not Darth Vader approved you throw a hissy fit. great job!
Sir, this was such a great real view into how this works. Thank you.
I've been looking for a video like this to evaluate iMac & video editing. Not sure why I didn't see it sooner. Thanks for the video.
The vibrant back of the iMac looks like it was made to be in the frame of videos. The little pop of colour looks so much better than an abyss in one of the corners which makes you wonder if your screen is alright
You rock, dude! Love your reviews!
Thanks for this very good review of the iMac 2021 using Final Cut Pro. You hit what I'm looking for in a review--how fast and smooth editing 4K videos. Again thank you.
Thank you bro for this video !!! You got style 🔥 👍 .
You're so great! Thank you for you time and effort you put into these videos!
He gets paid for it, so why wouldn’t he put time and effort into it?
@@mattpergolski4759 What...? So let me get this straight, just because he gets paid for it, I can't appreciate the work he does.
You are surely a sad, sad boy. So much negativity. I hope you can get out of whatever rut you are in and rise above it.
@@mattpergolski4759 He does not get paid for it.
Everything is so smooth with M1.. This is a brand new fresh start for Mac
Thank you! You are providing an amazing service!!!!
Bro Awsome!! Loved the video and i was actually waitng for someone to review this Imac wrt Editing. Please tell me can this Imac works same as in Adobe Premiere with the same footage, coz i work in Adobe apps, also am a Graphic Designer.. will it be good if i buy it or shud i wait!!
That’s good to see. Got an 8 core 16gb unified 1tb ssd in purple on pre-order. Logic will be the primary use but do want to get more into the video editing
What was the price for all that?
Dang I'm still trying to learn final cut pro from LinkedIn learning and you're putting a contact faster than I can think. Quality videos as always!!! Debating on upgrading?? from iMac i7 2.6Ghz with 16 GB RAM and dual fusion drive to the Mac Mini M1 or iMac. I will have to reexplore your vids on those and thanks for the accessories review just got the MX Master 3 and I love it!!!
Thanks for this great review, you rock!!!!!!
I love how you seem to genuinely love the content you create! ANd I love seeing you edit in real time! Hope to see more videos like that :)
nice to see the magic being made behind the curtain. I'm just a viewer with no film editing whatsoever. Everything looks great
I have absolutely no idea what he just did with color correction or anything like that, but this absolutely made me want a product I 200% do not need
Thank you for answering my question!
These M1 machines are game changers to say the least! I’m able to run my entire RUclips channel completely mobile just using my smart phone And MacBook Air
Love the vids man
Of course you can do video editing on that. Same chip as the M1 MacBook Pro. It run faster than that too since it doesn’t have to worry about powering a battery. It’s plugged into the wall all day.
Oooooh! 2 vids in day, let's goooo!!!
Hey @TheEveryDayDad really nice video!!
What about the 7GPU spec model? Also if we do the same thing with Adobe Premiere - how long that takes?
I have been looking for a Gary “the making of” video! Would like to learn how to do this.. would love to learn from you.
Hey Gary. Love your videos. I have a question for you. Do you think you would ever use the camera on the iMac for you RUclips Channel. I ordered the new iMac and I need to decide whether to use the built-in camera now that it is 1080p or continue using my GH5S which I absolutely love using.
Great video as always. And may I ask how many core of GPU is this one? 7 or 8? And is that still 8 GB Ram or 16GB Ram?
I have the MacBook Pro M1, it's so good for editing my videos. Would you recommend upgrading to 16gb MBP at some point? I only got 8gb and it's ok for now but sometimes lags on iMovie. Thanks
I'm editing on a 2015 Macbook Pro 13 base model, so when I finally get my new Apple Silicon upgrade, it's gonna be glorious 😍
I love the white bezels, wish we could get them on the iphone again.
0:07 You're The Everyday Dad. I'm sure you can figure out how to slam the Mac.
This channel seems to be the only place that asks all the questions I myself ask.
How do you cut all three timelines at the same time? 🤔 does the cursor have to be an a specific spot between the timelines?
The Orange color is so good ❤🥵
🧡
I would get orange or purple!!! torn! lol
I prefer the yellow
Hi there! 👋 Thanks so much for posting this video 😀 This is super helpful! Do you happen to have True Tone on or off? I know this can affect colour accuracy for creative work. I’d be interested to hear what brightness level you have yours on too (e.g auto or on a specific setting) - I ask this because I’m on the autistic spectrum and am struggling to find the right settings. Thanks so much! Amy 😀🎉
So you have processed your video to H265. How long does it take for You Tube to render your 10 bit 4k file for viewing for us to watch?
Will the 16gb be enough to edit in Davinci Resolve Ultra HD Blackmagic Raw?
Is 16GB a limitation for these m1 devices w.r.t the future? If I were to buy this as my primary editing machine and use it for atleast 5 years, will this non-upgradable ram affect my workflow?
So helpful because I'll be using my iMac specifically for video editing! Also I had to skip to after you were talking about the multi-cam stuff because it hurt my head its so confusing 😣😂
Could I use the same MacBook pro or iMac with M1 for video editing (logic pro x) and music production (Ableton 11)?
Same iMac (16gb upgraded) for both?
Just want I want to see. My iMac should be here in 2 weeks and really can’t what. I got it for learning final cut. 👍
Okay, so Watching you edit (I'm new to FCP) as you were cutting like that and highlighting the tracks shot that you wanted to show how do you do that?
Hello from Spain! Do you think does it work well with Avid Media Composer or Adobe Premiere? Thanks.
This is super impressive, I’d love to see the same project rendered on the other M1 computers to see how they compare!
I love watching your videos
Thank you so much...
is the cheapest version would be as good for 4k video edition?
The one that has m1 7 cores instead of 8 and 8gb Ram only???
I have just got the Mac Pro 13 with m1 and this is my first Mac .I can not get the video from a Sony camera into my Mac do you have a video on how to do this . I am not liking the computer because of that what is the hack, but loving it for everything else... HELP
bruh, that is so awesome dude
I have an 13”, early 2015 with i7 and 8gb ram.. Should I upgrade or what for m1x? Just want a Lightroom editing machine
50th like.Been waiting for this one! Great Video Gary!
Great vid bro. I've been on the 2016 MBP for 5 years now. Editing ALL my stuff over here...never thought of a desktop, until today. Hmmm. Is it time to nail myself to the studio?! Thanks for not making this easy bro ;)
What key combination is for cutting all three timelines at once?
Ah, this answers my question about the M1 iMac and FCPX. 👍
Can (should I ) it work with optimised media only with the M1 iMac in FCPX?
I am interested to know how the ethernet connection works through the "MagSafe" power connection. And is this the system apple will use for future Macbook Pro? Could it be that the rumoured Macbook Pro with HDMI and other ports will be done through the power brick like the new iMac? Rumours also mention that MagSafe is coming back to the Macbook Pro. Just putting 1 and 1 together :)
I have a 2015 27in iMac that I do my video editing on and I'm fairly sure the new base model blows it out of the water.
THIS...or a mac mini and a regular monitor? whats better?
the thing with Final Cut is that it's so good it does miracles with the not-so-dedicated GPU in the M1
i'm wondering how well a 3D rendering app like Blender would perform on this beast. cuz i have an old intel macbook pro and i'm scared shitless of my one and only workstation heating up when I hit render.
Can you make a Final cut pro tutorial
plenty online
it's super easy to learn
Yeah he’s got super fluid efficient workflow that’s how it’s done!
Better Performance Not Better Quality in FCP just wondering did you try Better Quality or was that a problem ?
Think im going to need a color grade tutorial from you!!
can the keyboard used on the other mac like a macbook air? is the touch id function
on the other mac?
Has anyone run Blackmagic Disk Speed tests on external SSDs yet? Does the M1 iMac throttle Thunderbolt/USB I/O speeds like the other M1 machines, or has this been addressed?
If they had target display mode for my work computer I would ditch just about everything else I have to use it as my main computer. It would be so nice to just have a super easy all-in-one.
My 2015 iMac struggles with editing 1080p in iMovie. Do you think I need to upgrade or try Resolve? I think I have base specs 8gb ram i5 processor
If your imac has a hard time with imovie, resolve is a more demanding app, and if you can, you should upgrade to this, but if you are only doing 1080p editing, a 2017 or 2018 model should do which you can find in the Market for cheaper, but since they are all apple products, the price difference shouldn't be that big so long story short, the m1 is really worth it
Word, you should upgrade man. Especially if your only really concerned with video editing and not gaming or anything like that then m1 is a good way to go. You can even edit 4k video on it, so it will probably last you a good couple of years
I do not understand that . My 15inch mid 2014 i7 macbookpro with 16 GB ram smoothly edits 4k video in iMovie and fcp. How many programs do you have in the background? I make sure that when I edit video that there are no other programs open, except for safari and mail.
Probably the i5 dual core model, I doubt yours is a dual core
@@Theo5555 Mostly none. Make sure the programs are shut-off. I only use it for video editing. I use my work computer for everything else.
I like your video 💖 , i have 2 questions.
1. What device did you use to record the screen?
2. Why the screen recording looks little blurry?
I noticed that as well. Everything in the video is sharp, ( watching in 4k on a 5k monitor) , except the screen recording files are all blurry??
I have a very important question, how do you get photos from a canon camera on to the iMac m1 considering it doesn't have usb or a card slot?????? I need your help!!!
USB-A to USB-C adapter. It's a short cable. You might as well get a dongle with a bunch of ports, though.
Hi, could you do maybe a video featuring the best ecosystem with the imac?
The iMac display looks pretty bright!
Man, you really need to start using the multicam feature!!! So much easier. Great video, thanks!
Very curious to know about your external screen recording device. Actually what you use for external screen recording?
❤from 🇮🇳
Hopefully you ordered the red, cause it goes so well with your wooden desk 🙏
He said it would be green or orange
Do you record all of your videos in 30fps or just 4k?
Hi , can you plz make a final cut pro tutorial step by step ?
They look lovely I’m just not sure why I would need one ? If I just had a Mac mini or a MacBook Pro and hooked it up to a good monitor would there be any performance difference? As you say maybe there is a use case for some people but a permanent workstation seems very old school now days.
the monitor they come with is exceptional and you can’t get one with all the specs and features that the imac monitor comes with, especially at the price point of the imac with everything else built in and included too.
different people, different requirements (: but the imac is actually quite a good deal for a lot of people
@@papervws never really looked at the spec from a screen point of view but it’s a good point 👌🏻 guess I value the mobility a bit more overall
@@matth8205 me too, i have an M1 MBP myself also and woudlnt want any other M1 computer more than this one(:
@@papervws yeah I picked up an M1 air and to be fair it’s fantastic for everything I need
How’s the display holding up ? 4.5K versus the screen on the M1 Air ? Does driving the 4.5K screen slowed the GPU down ?
awesome video as always - just dropping a comment for the algorithm ;)
wow are you using an external recorder like Ninja 5, to actually record your Mac's screen ?? I didn't know you could do that ?
What was the size of hard drive on this one?
Is there alot of performance difference between 512 GB and 256 GB? Someone please help me figure it out? I want it for video and photo editing
Can this handle 4:22 10 bit files from a Sony a7s3?
Nice & Thanks :)
You're Flash Man! 🔥
why are u not using MCP for all the video layers?
Great video. The new iMac works with sidecar on my 2020 iPad Pro, correct?
Correct
@@manuellemus8542 Okay thanks! Just had to make sure.
Happy for you …blessings 🙏
Would like to see same workflow on the 8GB version
Does anyone know if this is the base model?
That's a super simple project, I'd like to see something more complex.
Commenting on every new video until we get a camera review: day 45
If only he had talked about the camera on the iMac, then your quest would be fulfilled
It’s good. Other reviewers have gone over and compared it.
Keep it up Joshua.. eventually it will work
BAHAHAH STOP
I’m with you, where is my vlogging test ?
