Absolutely fantastic once more! Thank you, Simon. I'll share a link to this tutorial across all the Facebook groups to which I belong, including my own.
Great video! I use shutter angle because it will remain consistent as I change frame rate. So if I’m at 24p, a 180° shutter is approximately 1/48, but if I go to 60p and want a consistent look, 180° should be 1/120. A small detail, but useful.
Thank you. Just replaced my 11 Pro 64gb with 15 Pro Max 1TB. I was gifted a Lumix S5 with 50mm last year but sadly I haven’t used it much. It’s great and all but I’m contemplating on selling it. I’m more of a run and gun type, and with the S5 in a cage, I don’t really like taking it everywhere with me. The iPhone with this app, case with ND filters attachment and smaller/lighter accessories maybe a gimbal, it suits me better. We’ll see.
Thank you for such detailed video, Simon! I have an issue with black magic camera app on my iPhone. I hope you will see my message, bcz I can’t find a solution for my problem so far 😢. I deleted from Blackmagic camera all the videos I took, but memory of this app is still full. How to clear the space of the app? 😔🙏
In simple terms you need more disk space on your phone. Either by deleting stuff or hooking up an external ssd drive. If you take the route with the external drive though beware you will need external power for your ssd. Also note some ssd drives will not be recognised by your phone (assuming it's an iPhone).
I would like to keep my camera (iPhone) fixed in one position, I guess I do that by going to “camera / lock current orientation”? And thanks for the VERY useful video!
Leaving a comment as your videos have been really helpful in understanding my two newest bits of kit - iPhone Pro (using this app) and DJI pocket. Genuinely great, efficient, clearly instructed, informative videos. Rarity on RUclips!
I have been using this app for a couple of weeks. I have found that there is a a slight mismstch between video and sound. The sound is slightly ahead if the video. Anyone else found this? I am using 25 FPS and 48 kHz with the iPhone microphone set on Auto.
Simon: great video as always . Am I right in thinking there is no slow motion recoirding setting?. ( Other than record at 4k 60 fps and then slow it downmanually in post?) Thanks!
For pulling focus on the 15 pro and up I have seen good luck with the Tilta Nucleus nano 2 wireless as it can connect to any black Magic Camera (and iPhone camera app) and pull focus like normal. Albeit, a pricey endeavor but works across iPhone and other professional set ups.
Amazing. every video you make is soo well-thought. Thanks. Question. How can I white balance using a grey card with Black Magic Cam app? In Filmic Pro, you zoom in to cover the screen with the grey card, then enable auto white balance, then lock it, and then zoom out back again. Does it make sense to use the same process work in Black Magic cam app? Thank you so much for your time!
Great coverage, one question thought, my false color scale is hidden under the apple camera black oval on the left hand side, any thoughts on why that may be? iPhone 15 pro max thank you
thank you for your tutorial; I wonder if it is possible to manage the depth of field, to obtain the bokeh like in the cinema mode of the native iPhone app?
Hi Simon, great tutorial, one thing I noticed using the 'cinematic' or 'extreme' modes in stabilisation, you can't use the lock focus and exposure feature, as soon as you hit record it just goes out of focus, at least that is what happens on my Iphone 15 Pro Max anyway, it's fine in standard and off modes, have you noticed this at all?
strange, I wonder if it's a bug with the Pro Max? I uninstalled and reinstalled the app to see if that was the problem, but it was still the same, the lock focus and exposure in the native iPhone app works fine.@@HorrocksoniPhone
Awesome video as always! I seem to have a problem or there is a bug. When I overexpose using shutter speed I don’t get zebras. Only when I use the faux exposure compensation slider.
Simon, hoping you can help me brainstorm a solution. I'd like to use my iPhone 16 as a camera for a video podcast etc. To do that, I need to be able to use my iPhone 16 and the BlackMagic Camera App as a webcam in order to record video directly on the Mac or through Riverside app/web client etc. If I plug usb-c to usb-c it only works for the regular video app and not BM. I am also using a usb-c audio interface to record audio. Any help/suggestions/brainstorms is GREATLY appreciated!
While you are correct about the need to keep ISO as low as possible to reduce noise on a normal digital camera, the iPhone 15 Pro, at least, makes that decision more complex. Even when shooting outdoors during the day, Gerald Undone in his "Dynamic Range Test" here on RUclips found that setting the ISO to 1250 optimizes Dynamic Range when shooting Apple Log. And of course, when doing that outside, an ND filter would be required.
Quick question, i don’t know how to clear the camera setting on the camera page, or do i have to go into setting every time to “reset camera setting” and do all my camera settings again to film the next scene. Pls help
Sir apple said that 15 pro 128gb can't shoot LOG at 4k, is it possible thru blackmagic camera app ? Is it possible to edit videos freely on iPhone without heavy computer system? I have ryzen 5 laptop Reply me what the ground reality,is there any other issues with 128gb ..I am going to buy 15 pro for filming instead of camera . What you think? Is there app like mcpro24fps for 15 pro ? What configuration you phone belongs to
Hi Simon, great video...thanks for everything you do. Quick question, when I set my resolution to HD (1080p), I don't see the 120fps, I still see it up to 60fps. What am I missing?
do you know why when I take a video with the application when I upload it to my photo gallery The file size is much smaller than that on the application
Hi Simon, I really enjoy your videos - so thorough and well presented. I noticed that the BM app (and also the Filmic pro) doesn't do as good a job as the native iphone 15 pro max on the 0.5 for macro shots - for example for the exact same shot when I switch between the native to the BM app it doesn't seem to capture at all well - it struggles to focus and much less detail - why is that I wonder? I am finding for macro shots the native app is better unless I am missing something...?
Thanks 🙏 this is what I do but I can’t control shutter or ISO on the native IOS app so I am struggling to do any decent macro shots. Why can’t BM do this if Apple can? Just wondering? Would you agree that for macro video I am probably better off using a DSLR given these limitations?
Cara eu peguei alguns Luts testei vários e todos ficam com as cores estouradas, fica uma parada muito artificial e feia, será que tem alguma configuração errada ?
I have a 16 pro and I noticed that all of the footage does not look very sharp and that the focus assist turns off anytime you hit record, which kind of defeats the purpose. Am I missing something? Also a lot of digital noise.
Trying Blackmagic on my iPhone 13 Pro Max following your excellent video. All works well except I have no audio on playback. Level meters on record work and display as expected but on playback there is no audio and the speaker icon is greyed out? Anyone any idea what's wrong? Videos recorded with the standard iPhone camera app are fine.
@@HorrocksoniPhone Yes, I know. Thanks, but I was wondering if it could be done winth the same app, like the native cameras on iPhones or Pixels do, etc.
Amazing video! Any chance someone can help - using the blackmagic iphone app on an iphone 12 mini, when I lower the resolution from 4k to HD, the available recording time does not increase. Any idea why? (When I lower the bit rate, it does reduce though)
When I toggle on DisplayLUT the camera displays everything neon red/blue. Also I don’t have an option for Same as Caption under Color Space Tag. Why to both?
Hi Simon, as always, it was an excellent easy-to-understand but comprehensive tutorial; thank you. I used to be able to get the ISO and Shutter Speed, actually I use Angle to be Auto but now I can't set ISO to Auto when shutter speed is set to Auto, even after watching your video frame by frame. I am pulling my hair out at my potential stupidity. :-) The option does not show when click on the +/- icon.
I have been following your guide - newbie here! I have imported a lut to Blackmagic camera app and selected “record lut to clip” - however if I try to share the video to stories in Instagram it shows it without the lut applied and I’m unsure why? Anyone able to help?
Hello Simón! Do you know how I can connect two dji mic 2 microphones in the Blackmagic Camera app on my IPhone to do interviews? I've tried but it only lets me connect one microphone. Thank you very much
you mean 2 transmitters and 1 receiver connected to the iPhone? You should be able to set the DJI to split the mics so one is recorded on the left channel and one on the right channel. That's the only way to record 2 separate channels of audio onto an iPhone
Which iPhone was this done with? I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max, and Blackmagic came with the Apple Log to Rec709, but I don't thing the 13 does Apple Log, and so I'm not getting that grayed out effect when I use that lUT...
Hi, I just downloaded the Blackmagic Camera app on my iPhone 16 Pro and I have an issue with the UI, it is not rotating to a horizontal (landscape). I have tried all the settings but I see no way to see the same screen UI as yours. Can anyone help? Thanks a lot.

In simple terms you need more disk space on your phone. Either by deleting stuff or hooking up an external ssd drive.
If you take the route with the external drive though beware you will need external power for your ssd.
Also note some ssd drives will not be recognised by your phone (assuming it's an iPhone).
Full range of focus!!!
That's needed
exactly! Hope they fix it (but doubt it)
