The BMC app has changed my entire workflow. Having the capability to automatically generate the proxy files and write them to the SSD or at times a thumb drive makes my timeline streamlined. I can take the SSD and go directly to Davinci Resolve. I have multiple cameras and I can easily do Multicam using the BMC app. The hardware support with Tentacle syncs my Sound Devices Mix Pre to the frame level and there is also one other hardware option that really is a good one is Nucleus M - This has been an easy transition from my studio work using BM cameras to field work using the app and my new iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max. In addition when I need a Multicam shoot, I can bring in my iPhone 13 mini and the app also runs on my iPad Pro. So a lightweight capability that is really is game changing for me. Free is the Wow! Subscriptions are the Devil's work.

Hi 👋 Simon. I just joined your Patreon. I look forward to learning about smartphone film production. I’m excited. Thanks

BM is free there is no comparison tbh 😂

A good review - thanks

Nice video. Could you please do a comparison with photoapps to for iPhone?

Awesome video. Filmic Pro seems to still have more features so far... but I stopped using it the minute they introduced subscriptions. For me, the Black Magic app is the way to go especially in the light that eventually, i want a Black magic camera.

Please do a comparison video between Blackmagic Cam, Flimic Pro and CinemaP3 app

Thanks for video. Will filmic write to ssd?

Filmic lost me as a user when they went to the subscription model. A one time per year, *reasonable* maintenance fee for updates / upgrades, great. But their pricing model is, per Tropic Thunder - *FULL RETARDANT* and warning was, never go full retard. As for the Black Magic Cloud; I have need for that; so I’ll not be getting sucked into that. I use DaVinci Resolve, and will be upgrading to the Studio version. So, they will get some money from me for the applications that I use. I think they deserve it for the quality their products are.

BMC supports tilta nucleus m and nano for remote focus pulling...that is a nice bit of hardware support. The camera app is 100% free, BM Cloud costs money (even if you never use the app, its a standalone product)...and the camera has an integration if you are a BM cloud subscriber.

Filmic Pro is the only one app that supports gimbals like Dji Osmo.

I've been researching camera apps lately. I've installed the Black Magic Camera app because everyone says it's good, but it doesn't seem to autofocus when taking close-ups. I think I'm more comfortable with the original camera app for taking videos, but am I doing something wrong?

How do you snap a photo with any of these apps ?

Hello Simon! Excellent content! I am a newbie to mobile film-making & photography. Have been tinkering with the BM app to practice shooting vidoes in manual (15 pro max) & will continue to do so. I am looking for a one stop app for manual photography as well something that gives me manual control & a beginner friendly interface (no Ai & all the that). I see you mention the Moment Pro app. Would that be sufficient or could you please suggest a few more names? Thank you!

Can you control the input gain of an external mic?

Very good insight into the app. You have the option of connecting a Tentacle Track e as external audio with timecode...

Blackmagic Camera App vs Beastcam... Which is better?

R.I.P Flimic pro.

Hello! thank you for the video! I’ve already asked this question in your previous video😅 And a few people was wondering about that as well😊 Could you answer please : I have a regular iPhone 13, so it can’t record in a prores quality, but when I tested this new Blackmagic camera app, I’ve tried to record in Apple ProRes codec (4444) and in a standard photo gallery video file was marked as «prores» All I know is that prores is used to make better colour grade when edit video So my questions are: 1). Is it «real» ProRes? 2). It it worth shoot in this codec with my phone at all? 3). If yes - which option of these ProRes codecs should I choose ?😅 Thank you in advance!🙏

The BMC does not have a function that Filmic does have, which is the ability to push the BitRate limit in Filmic Pro for h264/65. It can record up to 100mbps, whereas in BLC it's limited to only 50mbps without the possibility of changing this

How did you get stabilization to look so smooth. I’ve tried everything on the app but no matter which settings I choose, standard, cinematic, extreme, the footage is still super shaky.

For me, Filmic Pro is still better; I tested BM too, but I wasn't satisfied with the result.

I bought Filmic Pro a bunch of years ago but I ditched Filmic when they went to subscription model since I HATE apps that have subscription. So I think Filmic shot themself in the foot.

Filmic Pro ist eine tolle app. Die habe ich mal fuer 15 Euro gekauft, aber das Abomodell war viel zu teuer, das war ihr Tod. Filmic Pro hat aber ein paar super nervige Nachteile, die von den Entwicklern nie angegangen wurden, z.B. das sich nach jedem Take die Belichtungszeit verstellt hat, die konnte man nämlich nicht fix einstellen. Super ist, dass man mit dem rechten Daumen ganz leicht zoomen konnte, das geht mit der BM app nicht oder noch nicht?

Tested on iPhone 12 and 13 pro

Can i shoot log in regular iphone 15 ? Is there any other option to shoot log on regular 15 model ? ( Real log note that fake flat look )

Apple log with h265 seems like the most sense - ProRes takes up too much memory

Why can I not get BM to go completely horizontal?

Bye FilmicPro

RIP Filmic Pro Today Filmic’s Entire Staff Laid Off by Parent Company Bending Spoons

the log from the blackmagic app is not the same log from the native app

Filmic Pro can burn in hell.
