Blackmagic Design Releases iPhone Camera App for Cinematic Video Creation

Blackmagic Design, renowned for its top-tier video editing software DaVinci Resolve, has introduced a new camera app for iPhone, promising professional-grade video creation for platforms like YouTube and TikTok. The Blackmagic Camera app brings studio-level controls and cinematic aesthetics to mobile video production.

 

Elevating Mobile Video Production

 

 

In today’s digital landscape, audiences have increasingly high expectations for video content. Whether it’s an online ad, a social media post, or a YouTube video, quality matters. However, many smartphone cameras fall short of delivering the high-quality visuals expected by viewers, often necessitating substantial investments in professional digital cameras.

This is where the Blackmagic Camera app steps in, aiming to bridge the gap. The app empowers users to capture smartphone videos that rival professional digital film cameras, complete with an interface reminiscent of Blackmagic’s own high-end camera lineup.

 

Powerful Features at Your Fingertips

 

 

According to Blackmagic Design, users can effortlessly adjust crucial settings such as frame rate, shutter angle, white balance, and ISO with a single tap. Additionally, the app supports recording directly to Blackmagic Cloud in industry-standard 10-bit Apple ProRes formats, including up to 4K resolution.

The app boasts impressive capabilities, including frame rates of up to 60fps, a broad range of shutter speeds spanning from 1/24th to 1/8000th, and various tint and white balance presets to enhance video capture. Content creators will appreciate seamless integration with Blackmagic’s cloud storage, facilitating collaborative video editing in DaVinci Resolve. Users can also efficiently manage clips through the app’s professional media management tool. However, it’s worth noting that the app supports iPhones running iOS 16.6 or above.

 

A Strong Presence in the Apple Ecosystem

Blackmagic Design has been making strides in the Apple ecosystem. In December 2022, the company launched DaVinci Resolve for iPad, a full-featured video editing app that mirrors its desktop counterpart in terms of capabilities. This move further solidifies Blackmagic’s commitment to providing high-quality video editing and production tools to Apple users.
