    Great video. I went from iPhone 12 Pro to a 15 Pro Max, and the difference in the quality of the video is tremendous. Now, I have to say the option to record the files externally from the phone itself is a plus. Nothing else really makes a big difference because you can use apps to do most of the stuff.

    I prefer using a mic and ssd on a hub. There is a HUGE difference between a tiny iPhone cage and an fx3 rigged up.
    I got the neewer cage, and a K&F VND, and I can use the cold shoes to put mic and ssd, and it’s a tiny bit bigger, but the beauty of the cage is you slide your phone in when you want to film and out when you are done.
    I am looking at using the 180 degree adapter for the hub, then another for the ssd.

    Thanks for pointing me in the direction of using the small NVME SSD and enclosure. I had been doing something exactly the same using both thumb drives for iPhone 13 and a Crucial X9 pro / X10 pro SSDs with a MagSafe wallet. Having a compact iPhone setup in your pocket yields a lot of good B roll shots for me when I least expect it. I also use the Hohen M6 and the one LUT. Having the BMC app also generate proxy files for ProRes is a big benefit when I bring everything into Resolve. So much power and technology at our disposal these days. The whole landscape for the little guy film maker has changed drastically the last few years.

I will use my iPhone 15 Pro Max for handheld shooting with little to no accessories since it's a pain in the ass to mount anything without a cage and a bunch of shit dangling and sticking out from it. I guess if you already have the phone and don't wanna spend the cash on the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 creator combo and an additional DJI Mic 2, then you can rig out the phone instead on the cheap.

    Amazing guidance for the specific use case you laid out, brilliant. In my case, I'd love to shoot with log and and ND filter, but I would like the ability to record sound internally. Looking at the record modes on the 15pro, I see that it can shoot log in 1080, potentially negating the need for a external SSD if the clips were somewhat short, like a cinematic shot of my toddler picking her nose at the beach and then pissing her pants. I have a small pocketable microphone I could plug in to get around the phone's mic being blocked by the ND filter? What do you think? I know some footage looks best when downsampled from 4K to 1080, so I really don't know if the image quality we're after demands 4K recording, in which case, I'll have to potentially bin this whole thing. Home movies without sound just seems kind of sad.

    • @thesavagefilmmaker
      @thesavagefilmmaker  3 месяца назад

      Yes will work absolutely. I record straight into cam if I don't have my SSD setup to hand in 4k Pro res LT, and then you can utilise the USB C for audio. And look, there's also absolutely nothing wrong with 1080 in my opinion. Nice even smaller setup with only the ND filter.

      I use both of those adapters, they are not wide angle, they are just ND filters to control the amount of light you are letting into the lens. Each adapter is a different strength, If I were to pick one, I'd go with the 6-9 stop ND the stronger one as I use it most often.

    I got the setup. my remaining issue is how to deal with storing the setup when not in use specifically the backside of the nd filter when not being used. is there perhaps a lens cap that can be placed over the back when its not being used do not really want to take the filter on and off every time i use it but that may be the best way

    Hello - great video ! I purchased several of these also to find the best option, and I established that cosmetically, the JEYI enclosure was the lightest, more direct and compact way to record ProRest video into my iPhone Pro Max 15. My joy at their great design quickly turned to disappointment when each attempt to record ProRes gave me the "write speeds too slow" dialog after spinning to process the file. I am using a Sabrent Rocket 2230 and the JEYi connects, lights correctly etc. Based on your recommendations and tests, I do not quite understand why the write speeds are not sufficient ? Thank you for any help...

    • @thesavagefilmmaker
      @thesavagefilmmaker  Месяц назад +1

      I'm afraid I can't vouch for the Sabrent version as that's not the one I use. However I do agree it should be fast enough, are you filming pro res LT or Pro ress 422 HQ? I don't normally use HQ. The other failure point may be the connector between the hard drive and the phone. If this cable isn't fast enough then that could be causing the problem.

      @@thesavagefilmmaker Thank you kindly for your response... I have tried all 3 ProRes settings... same result. For the USB-C, tried both the exact adapter you are using and also plugging the Jeyi directly into the Iphone... with the same result. Incidentally, the Sabrent rocket works fine with its own housing (www.amazon.ca/dp/B0D54XG52K?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details ) but I so much prefer your solution, more elegant, compact... the only thing left would be to try another SSD ( like the Kingston you are using perhaps)...

      So for those with the issue that the phone won't read the SSD when plugged in. You just need to format/initialise the SSD drive using your computer first. On mac this simply means plugging the SSD in, opening 'Disk Utility' selecting the SSD drive and formatting it to ExFat and naming it. Once formatted it will be readable by your Iphone. I don't own a PC but believe you can do exactly the same process using Disk Management with Window.

      Weight is not very noticeable, power drain... well you'll still get plenty of time, my phone would last at least half a day filming on and off with it, without charge and still last the whole day if I was only occasionally filming with it. To put it into perspective, using this as a C-cam I wouldn't need to charge it until the end of the day.

    Hi man! , this is the best video I have seen so far on this topic (and I have seen a lot of them since I am analyzing in depth the possibilities of iPhone 15 vs Osmo Pocket 3). impressive work. instant subscription! thank you.
    The main reason why I started this analysis is that I'm going to start an interview project on RUclips. which I want to record with two cameras: one frontal and another that goes from 45 degrees to 90 degrees framing the interviewee.
    Watching this video led me to visit your channel and watch the video “IPhone 15 Pro: A true Cinema Camera?” ¨
    in which you mention at 3´ and 26 ¨ that the iPhone 15 does not perform as well as a camera for portraits and close-ups and that is something fundamental for my project, since I do not want the iPhone and its camera man to be so close to the interviewed.
    Do you think that if I added some iPhone lenses to this setup that you propose here, it could improve this problem? If so, do you consider any superior to others?
    Because until now the comparison between the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and the iPhone 15 Pro, considering the pros and cons of both for my project, the setup that you put together works better for me. It's just that this problem of close-ups and portraits has caused me to rethink whether this is the best for me.
    Would you be so kind as to give me your opinion on this matter, please?
    I thank you at the same time as I apologize for the length of the text.
    Cheers! 😄

    • @thesavagefilmmaker
      @thesavagefilmmaker  5 месяцев назад

      I think the iphone is not the best camera for your specefic use case. I also don't think the Osmo Pocket 3 is that good an option. They will both be good for the wide angle and they will both be not so good for the close-up angle (if you are using two) I do not have much experience with Iphone lenses, but from what I've seen, they are not amazing quality. Personally I'd recommend find a couple of cheaper 'normal' camera's for interviews, or use one Iphone and one normal camera. Something like the Blackmagic pocket 4k and a lens will cost potentially less than the iphone and could be a good alternative for the type of project you're talking about.

    This is cool and all but really that practical compared to carrying around a DJI Pocket 3. 4K 60FPS shot in Log on a mechanical gimbal that could fit in a big pocket.
    I purchased the iPhone 15 Pro for my property videos because it has the largest wide-angle lens on the market right now. I pair it with my Insta360 Flow and Rodecaster Mic Pro for great audio and video.
    I have the DJI Pocket 3 for every other type of video I'm interested in capturing on the go.
    Thanks for the video. It was interesting to see different ways to tackle these problems.

Also Your phone is always in your pocket the DJI Pocket 3 is an extra thing to have in your pocket. But if your system works for you, more power to you.
