You need to check if such Macs are good and will work as you want. I do not see much problem working with ProRes using Windows.
Normal Mac usable for editing is 2-3x of same Windows note. At least this was last time I checked.
OK, if it is Prores and H.264 only can look for 8550U based laptops.
Will be hard to find proper, as you need used or refurbished.
Well, the Im trying to give the bmpcc a new lease in life and it would be perfect for this intended purpuse, small light, small lenses, great image. I dont need raw for this ofcourse I`ll be recording in prores LT most probably.
The suggested laptop I have already checked out, but it is too big. I have a sports bike, with small side bags and it needs to fit in there so it must be under 13" and even that is cuting it real close. I would use a phone to do this, but I don`t recall any apps being able to edit and grade prores.
Best idea of you travel a lot and few funds can be ditch bmpcc and raw:-)
Go with H.264 or ProRes route and use any refurbished 4 core notebook with separate Nvidia GPU.
