The touch screen is a dream for dodging and burning, cloning, masking all that stuff....and having full fledged photo apps and operating system is a must. focalpointsphoto.com

I didn't know touch screens are useful for post-processing. Show how little I know. When you see my camera gear you'll think I'm a pro.

IDK if the touch screen, per se, is all that useful. A finger is not a very accurate tool for making fine selections. However, the stylus is very accurate, once you get used to it. -- Mark | Gear | Flickr

A finger is not a very accurate tool for making fine selections. However, the stylus is very accurate, once you get used to it. Unfortunately, the Surface gets very expensive when you configure with a minimum usable amount of storage, and they are not upgradeable. All you can do is stick an SD card in for extra storage. I bought an i5/8gb/256gb model from Costco at a good price. Put a 256gb SD card in it. It's usable for LR and PS, but I have to dump the card after every race. Just order a 1TB SD Micro on sale from B&H. That should give me some much needed space. Yes no finger. Surface pen is great though. focalpointsphoto.com

Ah, I have the tablet version, so the SD card slot is always available. But it only has one USB 3.0 port, so I have to use a USB/media hub to copy from my camera SD cards to the tablet's SD card and to my external SSD backup drive. Takes a long time, especially since I also setup one or two action cams to record video while I shoot stills. -- Mark | Gear | Flickr
