iPhone 16 Pro has the same features of iPhone 15 Pro. Everything in this video is still accurate. Title has changed so people can still learn the things said in this video. It all applies still.
Looking at the side-by-side comparison starting at 7 mins mark, I find the Apple log side to be faded vs the regular side. I'm not sure if you labeled it wrong, but the right side looks more vibrant while the left side looks faded.
I CAN CONFIRM.... I have successfully recorded to a UHS-1 Micro SD Card (not a uhs-2) using ProRes. Here is what I have/did: - iPhone 15 Pro, white, 512GB - SanDisk Extreme Pro 512GB Micro SD card V30 ($52 bucks on Amazon) - UNI SD USB-C Card reader adapter ($12 bucks on Amazon) The iPhone was set to ProRes, LOG, 4k24, main camera. (91 minutes with 512GB micro SD Card) I formatted the card in my MacBook Pro 13" M1 to ExFAT. Popped the card in the reader, plugged the reader into the iPhone and recorded 1 full minute of video. No errors, no stopping. Playback was smooth. CONCLUSION: NO, you do not need an SSD drive. And also, NO you do not need a faster UHS-2 SD Card. As long as you have a fast UHS-1 card, you can do it. NOTE: This will not work with 4k30 or 4k60. If you set your camera to one of those, it WILL record, but your resulting file will end up being some wonky frame rate around 24p'ish. Basically, the iPhone will drop frame rate before it stops recording. So if you need to record 4k30 or 60, you will need a UHS-2 SD Card or an SSD. But 4k24p works just fine using a cheap Micro SD Card UHS-1.
@@Fmdk99 yes. That would work with all ProRes framerates. However that would be awkwardly dangerous sticking out the bottom of the phone. Be sure to use a 5” extension.
The log looks gorgeous. I can’t believe Apple hasn’t done a more traditional “Cinema profile” in all these years. Like Cinetone or Eterna. That auto HDR has been plaguing me ever since it came out as well.
Anyone using an Iphone 14 pro max does not need to replace his phone until the 16 series. Bcz in reality there is no such big diff in 14pro max and 15 pro max.. and for zoom videos or photos S22 and S23 Ultra is the best Option..
I feel like it needs a technical LUT or something to get it into the ballpark. I would think an inexperienced person would likely get better results shooting baked in and tweaking from there. That pastel look aint it. Looks not good.
I've noticed that RUclipsrs who discuss mobile phone video recording never mention the jittery effect that occurs when panning left to right. It seems that the phone camera's shutter speed may be the culprit. It's frustrating to see video examples that are either in slow motion or completely still like a webcam, as this doesn't accurately represent the normal video experience. It's crazy that phone manufacturers or reviewers aren't being honest about this common issue when promoting new models. Personally, the jittery effect makes me feel dizzy. It would be great if someone could ever address this problem.
Oh yeah totally. It’s a shutter speed issue that can be fixed with Blackmagic camera app or filmic pro. I just used the built in app for this quick example. Unfortunately Apple doesn’t allow for manual shutter speed adjustment.
I’ve noticed that sometimes, but it’s far far more noticeable on my Galaxy S23 Ultra. And my Pixel six Pro versus iPhones, my 14 Pro Max and 15 Pro Max now it’s far far less noticeable and much smoother compared to android overall.
I was already looking up USB MicroSD adapters to use with iPhone 15 Pro rather than a long cable for an external drive. I really want it to be as minimal as possible. Glad to know you can use SD/MicroSD instead of just a full size drive.
Becca from The Verge noticed that if your medium isn't fast enough, it will fall back to 30 fps without any notification. Probably something to be aware of when recording to an SD card. They might be too slow in some cases. In addition make sure that you have the proper cable.
Something that would be even better is to just get the Sharge Disk M.2 NVMe SSD enclosure that has a USB-C male port. You can hot swap the SSDs and it’s a tiny box that’ll plug directly into the bottom of the phone, no mounting necessary and way faster write speeds than SD cards
Why has no one talked about this device? Everyone is showing the most insane clunky and fail prone setups with these huge cables hanging off the phone.
Was great to see that log removed the sharpened phone look! Pro res is great and all, but those data rates are insane. I would love to see LOG on regular H.265. That would be insanely useful for projects that max quality is not needed but also wont look like it was shot on a phone.
That's what I love about the iPhone 4 4s.I have some exposure control and can increase or decrease it to my liking. There is a reason why a lot of people like shooting with that phone because of the experience. I have the 11 pro and and hate taking pics with it because it does everything and hate the sharpness look.
Apple has decidedly distinguished the pro models from the base iPhones in the iPhone 15 range. There's so much possibility now with the iPhone 15 pro max. A bigger case than can house a portable external SSD and SD card and mic ports plus a small battery bank will really bring out more utility from this powerful smartphone
nothing pro in iphone just fancy name to lure dumb customers will you belive in apple lies nothing powerful in iphone 😂 q17 overheating trotled garbage mess
I mean... I also ordered an iPhone 15 Pro exactly for those reasons... But it's still funny that recording to an SD Card and USB-C are a feature again... They already have been there years ago... And just were removed so that companies may ask you for way more money than they should.
Wow. I am actually very surprised at how good the colours look while recording in log, it's much better than standard. The only thing is the amount of storage it takes up because of the raw format. The only thing is that some people don't want to upgrade their phone so a cheaper alternative to shoot in raw video is just to use an old digic 5 canon camera with magic lantern.
I got the 16 pro in natural titanium 1tb. I filmed an unboxing and first impressions on my channel. So far this phone has been comfortable in my hands and the camera quality is perfection, lol.
That's awesome! Check out my friend @Stalman's video he posted today that goes over some really essential video and photo settings that help get the best results! ruclips.net/video/4TpfJuZ7YTY/видео.html&ab_channel=TylerStalman Happy for you!
I could see a Smallrig or Ulanzi accessory cage that could be developed incorporating all of this. I already was eyeing one kit that includes a holder for the SSD drive, but with enough room for the MagSafe battery pack on the back of the phone; as great as the battery life is on an iPhone, it does drain quickly when taking a lot of video.
Watching this on my iPhone, the standard footage looks way better. And I don’t notice any exposure shifting. For a quick shot the standard profile is amazing. But yes if you know what you’re doing, then the log format is very useful.
I've got the same 128gb phone and I've been messing around with the external recording. I put in a usb-c thumb drive with 1TB and could record to it, showing 119 minutes 4k. The read write is slow though. Here's what I noticed. If I record something and unplug too fast I don't get the whole recording, if I wait a while I do get the whole recording, but there is nothing telling you when the data transfer is done. I've ordered the usb-c to sd card reader because I have a bunch of fast sd cards. My plan is to get a spare case and attach the reader to it then tie back the cord, I'm hoping to use it on my osmo gimbal :)
Basically what Im noticing too. The speed at which you can hit record again after you stop will depend on the speeds of the the drive you use. The T5 can stop and start almost instantly, while the slower cards, I will hit stop and then some will take 10 seconds and others 30 seconds, but the native app will be frozen until it saves the video and you are able to hit record again. Depending on the use case and what footage you need that day, you can definitely get away with using the slower storage options, but if you need quick stop and start recording, you need to make sure you get a really fast storage option like the T5.
Thanks for the lock white balance when recording heads up I have just turned it on on my 12 pro Max and will be doing the same on my 15 pro max when it arrives.
@@AdamLMorewell I did not see it in the video but it absolutely remains in my 13 so I guess is fix now. Looks like Apple fixed it without saying anything about it to avoid recognizing that huge bug in their previous iPhones. Sneaky company lol
Standard footage isn't too bad at all, I wish it could adjust the contrast, saturation and sharpneness. At least sharpeness. Great video! Thx for sharing!
USB C opens up some good options. I just tried a CFExpress Type B reader and a 512 GB Angelbird card in my iPhone 15 Pro Max and it worked perfectly. People are also using Crucial SSD and have printed holders & interface already out there.
You can get very short USB-C cords and a MagSafe magnet (for those phones that don't have MagSafe but still want MagSafe stuff) to use on the SSD. It actually works!
Pro tip: An easier solution would be to get a Kingston USB SD card reader and then a USB to USB Type C adapter and just stick in in your iPhone. It will eliminate any kind of wires or the need to mount the reader you have. ;)
Yeah or something like the: ‘Alogic ULCSDMN-SGR’ or “Anker SD Card Reader, 2-in-1 USB C Memory Card Reader for SDXC, SDHC, SD, MMC, RS-MMC, Micro SDXC, Micro SD, Micro SDHC Card, and UHS-I Card” to eliminate that second adapter
The graded log footage looks so much better. Which makes me wonder… couldn’t they eventually build a graded log option into the iPhone? I see no reason why you shouldn’t be able to get that look without having to grade it yourself on a computer
I was already excited for the new phone, but seeing how you utilize this new feature and putting it to work, I’m GEEKING OUT!!! Subscribed for more future iPhone content.
What’s the data rate on these formats? Gotta make sure the media you’re using is up to snuff to handle it. Not sure if Apple uses a buffer when writing to disk, or if dropped frames are a risk.
The T7 has lower sustained writing speed than the T5. Perhaps lower write cache. T7 drops significantly below their specifications after a while in a session. It’s not really an upgrade. It’s more of a cheaper alternative. For sustained data rate T5 is still the better choice, in my opinion.
There are some nice reasons to use ProRes, but the real quality and post process control comes from using ProRes RAW, which I don’t think the iPhone can do? Log is simply the removal of saturation and contrast to gain “space” to save a bit more dynamic range, also a smart option.
Thanks for this. One thing I'm not clear on: if you're using the USB port for external recording, how do you use wireless mics? The receiver normally plugs into the lightning/usb port, so how do you get around that?
Wonder how many things that usb port can do simultaneously. Imagine recording to sd, and also audio out and mic input and hdmi out for monitoring, AND charging at the same time
i'm sure somebody else has mentioned it but it looks like the microSD card was the slowest speed kind not extreme pro or uhs II, I'm thinking that it would work with the right card capability!
Great video! You answered the question I had about recording ProRes with the 128gb version. Could you record regular 4k externally? probably not, just asking. Thanks!
Wow I noticed the default grading looked WAY better on my TV, and checked on my iPhone 15 and they both looked fine but the right side still looked “nicer”. Is it a case of grading to suit the purpose? A “studio” shot or other indoor environment probably doesn’t need or want the full range of reality recreation you get outside - it’s not an impressive location scene. Anyway let me know - if it’s an interesting philosophical point, make a video about it?
Nice! Is that the Pro Max or just Pro? How’s thermal management when recording 4K? Does the phone heats up after a while? Also would like to know if you can record LOG but in HEVC
I’m liking my SanDisk iXpand Luxe for the iPhone. Easy to clip on a keychain. USB C flash drive is my favorite method right now. Hope this helps someone. 👍
I’ve found a new favorite RUclips channel! I appreciate your insight & knowledge, my friend! I’m old & usually, just in the way-but I love to learn, which gets a little harder with every passing year. I am divorced & we had no kids, so I sit at home a lot trying to broaden my horizons, all while trying to contribute something to society! BTW, is that a Tennessee cap I spy?! It certainly seems like it, however, Texas has been trying to steal our Power T away for a few years. If so, welcome to the SEC 🎉
I guess it makes sense if you have a few UHS-II cards spare, anything slower will skip frames from my tests. So cost wise its better to go SSD with T7/T9 ect and get 4tb for about the same price as a 256gb uhs-ii v90. Also theres plenty of short 10gbs cables and angled connectors to make a neat solution for handheld use
I just tested external recording prores log on Samsung T7, using original cable vs samsuung t7 cable. I saw that the iphone original cable will cause frame drop intensively and it took much longer to write to T7 after click stop recording when the usb-c gen 2 cable finishes saving the file to T7 right after I click stop recording without losing any frames. Therefore, using another usb-c cable for iphone pro (max) is the must to utilize its features
The original cable is is USB 2.0 (480Mbits/s, or 60Mbytes/s). 4K60 Log takes up about 100MBytes every second, so that'll be what causes the stuttering as there is literal data being lost in the process. Additionally, USB 2.0 is incredibly unstable, it rarely ever gets the 480mbps at consistent rates. That'd be why you're getting issues (Apple does state to use a higher speed cable on their product page)
I’m imagining a case that has a m.2 style (2230?) ssd with USB-C that also allows for charging pass through? Somehow, that drive could quickly come out (solutions for this do exist) and be popped into a faster enclosure at the computer to quickly dump the drive. It’ll probably make the most sense to go SD Card due to it being cheaper, smaller, having less heat and more handable than m.2 drives. It is a neat idea to think of though, especially as SSDs get cheaper. You wouldn’t even need to go NVMe over SATA if you didn’t want to. But if you’re recording a lot at once? Just put a PCIe gen5 NVMe SSD in there and record normally while the dump station goes crazy.
In fact, I have some DIY units with Kingston SSDs and an AliExpress case that costs approximately $70 for 1TB.They work very well, I even think it is better since the 10gbps USB gives you a better workflow than an SD for the same price
It's so hilarious to see iPhone users freaking out about features that Android has had for decades. I've literally been using SD cards and USB drives as portable storages since around 2008 with my Androids. And now that Apple finally included USB-C they'll finally find out all things we've been doing for years. Gotta love it
1. Can we record regular 4k video to the card reader/SSD.......the non Prores video 2. If we use the USB port for recording video .how would we use the wireless mic receiver into the phone
Hey man, excellent content on this topic, thanks! What file format do you use, ExFat or APFS? I’m looking to do the same for my iPhone, iPad and macbook.
@@rexmanigsaca398 i bought a pixel just to get rid of this thief ecosystem ... You need to pay for an app because your 4k 60 fps video are not showing in your phone because they are to big ? Seriously , iphone never again lol
Stalman's video with the Apple Log clip Post-Processed looks great. I'll probably copy iPhonedo's samsung drive mounting idea (w/ a magsafe sticker on the drive), but the cable system still needs clean up.
😮🙂👏 This is definitely a better option for us. We have lots of SD space to spare so keeping the dongle in our kit makes more sense for workflow. Awesome vid!
You should look at 2230 size M.2 drives with a little case! I've gotten a very quick 1tb drive to work and I know more is supported if you hook up to power and external storage at the same time with a USB C hub :)
Can iPhone 15 Pro Max record ProRes 30 fps 4K (no 60 fps) to iPhone 15 Pro Max internal storage instead of to the USB-C external storage? iPhone 13 Pro Max & iPhone 14 Pro Max can record ProRes 30 fps 4k to internal storages 256 GB or higher.
The cable that comes with the iPhone is only a basic charging cable. I would not trust it for data. Buy a more recently made cable that can handle high-speed transfers. Also, please don't do any critical work until you do a test recording and check it for dropped frames.
Nice! How does the iPhone 15 Pro / Pro Max balance on something like a DJI Osmo Mobile 6 with the SD card reader hanging off? Would love to see a video around using a gimbal with these SD card / SSD setups.
Great video, thx. I would try, if that exist, a longer usb-c cable and leave my card reader or my ssd drive in my pocket when filming. This is more discreet when traveling... in order to avoid theft.

What’s the data rate on these formats? Gotta make sure the media you’re using is up to snuff to handle it. Not sure if Apple uses a buffer when writing to disk, or if dropped frames are a risk.
The T7 has lower sustained writing speed than the T5. Perhaps lower write cache. T7 drops significantly below their specifications after a while in a session. It’s not really an upgrade. It’s more of a cheaper alternative. For sustained data rate T5 is still the better choice, in my opinion.
Great tip! Thanks!
You can use a usbc thumb drive simply plugged in !! Totally works!
Apple Log looks amazing. Looks like proshot from a DLSR/Film
There are some nice reasons to use ProRes, but the real quality and post process control comes from using ProRes RAW, which I don’t think the iPhone can do? Log is simply the removal of saturation and contrast to gain “space” to save a bit more dynamic range, also a smart option.
Thanks for this. One thing I'm not clear on: if you're using the USB port for external recording, how do you use wireless mics? The receiver normally plugs into the lightning/usb port, so how do you get around that?
USB-C hub works great.
Wonder how many things that usb port can do simultaneously. Imagine recording to sd, and also audio out and mic input and hdmi out for monitoring, AND charging at the same time
lol same thing I’m thinking, someone might be able to test this out with a USB C hub with all of these inputs on there.
Is there ANY way, to manually tell the iPhone, that it shall record to the external drive?! Would be VERY handsome in photo mode as well!
You can record to a SanDisk - Ultra Dual Drive Luxe 1TB flash drive. It's only $120 and it makes for a good way to grip your phone while recording
This is a fantastic feature for iPhones! Can this also work if you want to shoot standard 4K video directly to a SD card too?
i'm sure somebody else has mentioned it but it looks like the microSD card was the slowest speed kind not extreme pro or uhs II, I'm thinking that it would work with the right card capability!
Yes! Make sure it's 200MB/S at least
MicroSD works for me perfectly. I use it everyday.
A grip at the bottom would block the mics. This won’t be an issue if using external ones, something to consider though.
Great video! You answered the question I had about recording ProRes with the 128gb version. Could you record regular 4k externally? probably not, just asking. Thanks!
Wow I noticed the default grading looked WAY better on my TV, and checked on my iPhone 15 and they both looked fine but the right side still looked “nicer”. Is it a case of grading to suit the purpose? A “studio” shot or other indoor environment probably doesn’t need or want the full range of reality recreation you get outside - it’s not an impressive location scene. Anyway let me know - if it’s an interesting philosophical point, make a video about it?
Nice! Is that the Pro Max or just Pro? How’s thermal management when recording 4K? Does the phone heats up after a while? Also would like to know if you can record LOG but in HEVC
Just the pro.
Not sure on thermals. Haven’t done extensive testing. It heats up for sure. Can’t do log HEVC unfortunately
@@davidaltizer thanks! Good info!
I’m liking my SanDisk iXpand Luxe for the iPhone. Easy to clip on a keychain. USB C flash drive is my favorite method right now. Hope this helps someone. 👍
I’ve found a new favorite RUclips channel! I appreciate your insight & knowledge, my friend! I’m old & usually, just in the way-but I love to learn, which gets a little harder with every passing year. I am divorced & we had no kids, so I sit at home a lot trying to broaden my horizons, all while trying to contribute something to society!
BTW, is that a Tennessee cap I spy?! It certainly seems like it, however, Texas has been trying to steal our Power T away for a few years.
If so, welcome to the SEC 🎉
I guess it makes sense if you have a few UHS-II cards spare, anything slower will skip frames from my tests. So cost wise its better to go SSD with T7/T9 ect and get 4tb for about the same price as a 256gb uhs-ii v90. Also theres plenty of short 10gbs cables and angled connectors to make a neat solution for handheld use
I just tested external recording prores log on Samsung T7, using original cable vs samsuung t7 cable. I saw that the iphone original cable will cause frame drop intensively and it took much longer to write to T7 after click stop recording when the usb-c gen 2 cable finishes saving the file to T7 right after I click stop recording without losing any frames. Therefore, using another usb-c cable for iphone pro (max) is the must to utilize its features
The original cable is is USB 2.0 (480Mbits/s, or 60Mbytes/s). 4K60 Log takes up about 100MBytes every second, so that'll be what causes the stuttering as there is literal data being lost in the process. Additionally, USB 2.0 is incredibly unstable, it rarely ever gets the 480mbps at consistent rates. That'd be why you're getting issues (Apple does state to use a higher speed cable on their product page)
I use a Kingston SSD high speed thumb drive and it works amazing with ProRes 4k 60 fps
I’m imagining a case that has a m.2 style (2230?) ssd with USB-C that also allows for charging pass through? Somehow, that drive could quickly come out (solutions for this do exist) and be popped into a faster enclosure at the computer to quickly dump the drive.
It’ll probably make the most sense to go SD Card due to it being cheaper, smaller, having less heat and more handable than m.2 drives.
It is a neat idea to think of though, especially as SSDs get cheaper. You wouldn’t even need to go NVMe over SATA if you didn’t want to. But if you’re recording a lot at once? Just put a PCIe gen5 NVMe SSD in there and record normally while the dump station goes crazy.
In fact, I have some DIY units with Kingston SSDs and an AliExpress case that costs approximately $70 for 1TB.They work very well, I even think it is better since the 10gbps USB gives you a better workflow than an SD for the same price
Wow! But imagine there would be something like a cloud storage :O that would even be more insane, instant access on your laptop! that be crazy!!
You mean like the free Blackmagic Camera App and Blackmagic Cloud that was released a couple of days ago?
To my humble, untrained eye , I prefer that stock footage rather than the log video in your side by side.
It's so hilarious to see iPhone users freaking out about features that Android has had for decades. I've literally been using SD cards and USB drives as portable storages since around 2008 with my Androids. And now that Apple finally included USB-C they'll finally find out all things we've been doing for years. Gotta love it
1. Can we record regular 4k video to the card reader/SSD.......the non Prores video
2. If we use the USB port for recording video .how would we use the wireless mic receiver into the phone
Apples multi AV adaptor
7:31 - just stick a MagSafe sticker on the T5. Easy mounting to the back of the phone.
Yeah but I’m excited for whatever cases come out with SD cards or something. Could be cool. Convert iPhone to a more “normal” camera
Hey man, excellent content on this topic, thanks! What file format do you use, ExFat or APFS? I’m looking to do the same for my iPhone, iPad and macbook.
Make a case with a dual card slot reader and you can use it for weddings
Try a U-shaped USB-C male-to-male adapter for the SSD drive - should work well.
There is this amazing feature in Android phones, where you can plug in micro SD cards by default! lol Some even have headphone jacks. Brilliant.
I still don't get it why people still buy iPhone these days. I mean their tech is way behind and unstable compared to some high end Android phones.
@@rexmanigsaca398 i bought a pixel just to get rid of this thief ecosystem ... You need to pay for an app because your 4k 60 fps video are not showing in your phone because they are to big ? Seriously , iphone never again lol
@@rexmanigsaca398because iPhone is better, so we wait till they give us whatever features
The problem is that most flagship Android phones have ditched the microSD card slot. The only one that still has it is the Xperia.
Stalman's video with the Apple Log clip Post-Processed looks great. I'll probably copy iPhonedo's samsung drive mounting idea (w/ a magsafe sticker on the drive), but the cable system still needs clean up.
Is there an easy solution for using the one port for the SDCard and having a port for the microphone when using a iPhone camera cage/rig?
Thank you so much you just save me so much money now I can use 4k and log with a mini sd card I had laying around instead of buying a ssd
You can also buy a type c with no wire to ssd card reader.
😮🙂👏 This is definitely a better option for us. We have lots of SD space to spare so keeping the dongle in our kit makes more sense for workflow. Awesome vid!
fantastic! yes totally. just make sure the cards are at least 200mb/s
I just wanted to ask for this, thank you!!! @@davidaltizer At least 200 then?....
@@davidaltizer so 200mb/s cards isn't enough, is it David?
now imagine if the phone just had an sd-slot. should be a pro feature tbh, considering that the cameras are the main selling feature of them.
I would love for the DJI Osmo to have some type of SD card input so therefore you have your gimbal iPhone, 15 and storage all in one kit
At 10:00 I think you need a UHS -II SD card with second row of pins. You used only SD reader with 1 row of pins-slow slow.
I got Micro SD to work, albeit it was an Aliexpress setup so 4k 120 FPS had issues.
you can use a usb c hub on the Iphone 15 try it, I am using a anker 7 in 1 hub
So right , future gear or cages will rock,
Hey...those with the 13 and 14 Iphone models can record to SD cards with the Blackmagic Camera App. I have been using it for months now.
You should look at 2230 size M.2 drives with a little case! I've gotten a very quick 1tb drive to work and I know more is supported if you hook up to power and external storage at the same time with a USB C hub :)
for sure! much cheaper! just wanted to share my findings with SD. thought it was cool!
I think you'll find that an Extreme Pro Micro SD card will work fine. The EXtreme probably isn't fast enough.
i have started using a thumb drive (usb c) which is so much better than SD card
Can iPhone 15 Pro Max record ProRes 30 fps 4K (no 60 fps) to iPhone 15 Pro Max internal storage instead of to the USB-C external storage? iPhone 13 Pro Max & iPhone 14 Pro Max can record ProRes 30 fps 4k to internal storages 256 GB or higher.
The cable that comes with the iPhone is only a basic charging cable. I would not trust it for data. Buy a more recently made cable that can handle high-speed transfers. Also, please don't do any critical work until you do a test recording and check it for dropped frames.
What I get excited is adding an external battery to the bed of the CyberTruck to double its range.
This is awesome! Cant wait for cases to be made
Wow Just WOW! Great video mate, new sub here, cheers from Western Australia 🇦🇺✌🏻😎
Nice work! Excited to see what else we can plug into these little beasts...
My Samsung Galaxy has a built in SD card slot and you guys are plugging in that dongle thingy :)
Nice! How does the iPhone 15 Pro / Pro Max balance on something like a DJI Osmo Mobile 6 with the SD card reader hanging off? Would love to see a video around using a gimbal with these SD card / SSD setups.
Good question
Pro max with no accessories is too heavy for OM6
I wonder if using the apple MagSafe wallet upside down then sliding in the SD card reader would be a good solution before a proper solution is made
you're a genius
I know close to nothing about photography/videography. For the iphone 15 pro max, would using a usb type c flash drive be the same as this?
I think those golden sandisk SD mini cards you tried at the end are not fast enough
Probably need a v30 or v60 card.
Great video, thx. I would try, if that exist, a longer usb-c cable and leave my card reader or my ssd drive in my pocket when filming. This is more discreet when traveling... in order to avoid theft.
The error is based on the format of the card. Reformat it to exFAT and you should be good to go.
It's funny that I'm filming on an LG v60 straight to an SD card...
Seriously underrated gem when combined with MC 0:05 pro24 or motioncam
Yeah but Apple Log is unmatched. I've never seen such a powerful beautiful profile.
it's nice, but shoot raw with motioncam on android or shoot HLG2020 HDR10 on mcpro24 apps. @@davidaltizer not saying apple log isn't great, it's just funny to me that the biggest change for iphone users is the ability to use USB-C. seems.....kinda..ya know
You are running Tyler's iphone 15 video in the back. Smooth!!😀
He’s the GOAT!
Nice insights! Great job putting this together, love how the footage looks! 👏
I tested a variety of options and hands down SSD drives perform the best. I got a 1TB Samsung i7 and it has superior performance over SD cards.
for sure. just wanted to point out an interesting use case
Cool video. Can you record to external WITHOUT using prores log?
That is so awesome to know. I didn’t realize they had a usbc to sd reader writer
