If you go to the product website they do offer an adapter for either 17mm thread, M-series or T-series lenses... Next the question is whether they'll offer a DOF adapter for bigger lenses like BeastGrip.

Agree about the handle - for it's size could definitely have the features you mentioned... I'm also concerned that it is so large that it would be visible in the frame of the ultra-wide lens. Definitely any cage or rig has to watch out for how far out from the lens assembly it goes for any attached lens or filter, especially if you hope to use the full field of view of the ultra-wide. Kondor Blue is doing some interesting accessories for smartphone cages and handles, so they're another company to keep an eye on.

Yup, that's right.

me too ! 😉

@@aircinetik No one wants to attach an SSD with a grip like they do here! Give me a magsafe SSD that fits where that wallet does....and plugs into the battery handle with a pass through or something.

The USB-C hub in the video is noted that it is not the final design. Timestamp 9:24

Yes it does, it has a record button on the top of the handle.

@@BandH great! Does it trigger the iOS camera app to take photos? I.e. does it use the ios api to shoot photo? Foes anyone know or has anyone tried testing the button for photography?

Looks like it will support the 17mm mount as well as Moment’s M & T series. But no 37mm mount

@@BandH thank you for filling me in on that part I missed.

You can mount different types of lenses on the Khronos cage, with M Series and T Series Lens Adapters, as well as a 17mm Thread Adapter for usage outside the Khronos line. >Mark

@@BandH Thank you for this. Tilta updated their website providing greater info on their Amazing iPhone Camera Cage. Thank You!

My question is what the fan will do to the audio recording - you'll probably have no choice but to do external sound recording on other devices.

The metal backing by itself is likely an effective heat sink already. Cooling it further will make it that much more effective.

@@therobprattWell yeah… all this gear is for a cinematic rig. Nobody who buys this is trying to use their iPhone’s internal mic in the first place.

There’s a lens mount adapter

Needs to be able to use regular round filters as well so I can use my VNDs

Well, isn’t that just a dinosaur statement?

I stopped using the "C-word"... For a great video you need a great story. You can literally shoot it on box, if the story is good it will captivate your audience. It's never about gear!

Lo mismo decían los coloristas hace 15 años atras, la cosa avanza, hay publicistas que dicen ser cineastas, etc

I guess that depends on the definition of ‘cinematic’ and what yourself as an individual interprets as a cinematic image. There are many factors involved in making a good and pleasing image. Cinematic may be regarded as an image with good depth of field hence bringing a character out from the background, an image that’s got an aspect ratio more accustomed to cinema like 2.39:1 or is it the dynamic range that gives us good blacks and creamy highlight roll off, or the grade? All said and done in the right hands the iPhone 15 pro max can give you those things. Yes it’s a ridiculously small sensor that has of course has limitations, highlight roll off isn’t great and super dark scenes won’t be the best BUT when you look back at some of the tools used in cinema from years ago I can guarantee the ProRes log image out of this phone is way better. Case in point, 28 Days Later shot on an early low definition Canon XL1, no body questioned the results of that, The Possession of Hannah Grace was shot entirely on Sony A7sii’s an 8 bit camera, the film looks amazing. Not to mention how many productions used the Canon 5D Mkii in its day! So while I’m not having a rant here in disagreement, just saying times are changing, and whilst even Apple probably never intended the iPhone 15 pro max to be used as a cinema camera it’s great to see people having the balls to use it as such. After all people would have laughed at the thought of the Sony FX3 being used to shoot an iMax film but non the less it’s happened.. it’s only a matter of time a feature film will be shot on the iPhone and the audience won’t even realise as long as the story is engaging and the acting is on point!
