I go between windows and OsX every day. Amazes me the "I hate windows" or "I hate OsX" comments. They both work incredibly well and are both incredibly stable.

Apple do not recommend these machines for Logic Pro or Final Cut Pro, as the integrated graphics card is not suitable for transcoding video (yes, Final Cut Pro uses the graphics card processor not the CPU).
They are more than capable of handling photo editing on Adobe Creative Cloud, however there's a major drawback to the 2015 21.5" iMacs.
No memory upgrades (soldered) - Default 8GB configuration.
No hard disk upgrades (unless you want to take a hair dryer and crack open the front bezel)
Also the 1TB non-Fusion drive is going to be incredibly slow.
Voted hot for what it it is, but it's not a video workhorse. Sorry.

how do these run with a 1.6Ghz processor? my 2012 MacBook i7 2.2Ghz isn't exactly a beast

You cannot compare processors by clock speed, too many other factors

It won't run any better. The cpu/gpu on this machines is extremely weak, basically they are fancy-looking web browsing/light office work computers. It does not have an ssd so it will also have subpar boot and app-launching time. If anybody is considering this I would strongly recommend going the extra mile and buying the 2.8ghz quad core, if not the retina, as they are much better value propositions. I can't think of any scenario besides bulk buying where this particular version of what is otherwise a great machine would be a smart buy.
