FCP for iPad Pro - 11" or 12.9"?

[HMI]

I'm thinking of getting a new iPad Pro soon, and want to try the new "FCP for iPad."

Would the 11" be adequate for screen real estate and usability, or will I need to upgrade to the 12.9" to be hassle-free?

Please share your thoughts and experiences.

Thanks!

And just for the fun of it: (Why not use a Poll?)

I don't have either but I would imagine the more screen real estate the better. The 12.9" also has a reference colour mode too IIRC.

Are you going to pair them with a Magic Keyboard out of curiosity?

I can't see the point of trying to edit video on an iPad. How are you even going to get the footage into it? You need klutzy workarounds and dongles just to copy files from SD cards, and then you max out at 8 gb ram and trivial amounts of storage. I use a 2TB SSD, and still struggle with running out of space.

To use FCP regularly I'd definitely get a Mac. If I had to use it on an iPad, the more screen the better.

You can't use FCP occasionally. You'd constantly get stuck on finding where they keep moving features and buttons, and you'd never get things done.

Yeah, that's exactly how I use it!
