That said I am guessing the the M2 Pro chip Mini would also be faster at 4k
What is curious to me is why even the new M2 MB Pros still have only a 1080 web came and not 4K given my old iPhone 10 s can do 30 fps 4K

i do some 4K editing on a Mac Studio (base M1 Max, only upgrade is SSD to 1TB) and it's been an absolute pleasure. luckily, mine does not have any fan issues, even while exporting. it's definitely more computer than i need, but it was also the best option when my previous computer died in April 2022.
there are a few reasons for the 1080p camera:
- 4K is overkill for most
- Serious streamers that do need 4K use an MFT or DSLR
- Apple is pushing the Continuity Camera feature (iPhone as Mac webcam) and it works shockingly well
