For a test i imported 11 images form my Lumix G9 and the reduced free memory is noticeable, in this case arround 260MB. Importing images will reduce the free memory on the iPad.

The main disadvantage is the display which is not calibrated.īut with this you have the basics for a mobile processing. Meanwhile the image processing ooportunities in Lightroom CC were improved a lot so at least you can do first processing on the go like on a vacation or on a trip.

One can select the images to import and you can choose an enlarged display to judge sharpness and so on of the images ready to import. Lightroom CC or better Lightroom Creative Cloud (i would prefer it if Adobe kept their original name Lightroom Mobile for the app) is of course available for iPadOS and meanwhile you can directly import your images into Lightroom CC without the loop way over the photos folder. I you are a subscriber of the photography plan you might as well give Lightroom CC on the iPad a try, that is preparing the processing on the iPad and later on finalize the processing on a desktop pcc after the images are synched on the Creative cloud to Lightroom Classic.īut there still remain two limitations that is the data connection on the mobile side and the data volume and on the other hand that the photography plan only offers 20 GB of cloud space. In particular the display size make it more useful compared to a mobile phone. The iPad Air is powerful enough to process your raw files an this tablet. With my iPad Air i wanted to try out, how weel the tablet does on image processing with Lightroom CC.
