- In this video we will use the iPhone 15 Pro Max in a professional environment to see if it is possible to finally replace a cinema camera with just a smartphone. In other words, we will film a commercial for one of our clients using only clips shot with this phone.

Nice job, well presented and I would like to see a Blackmagic camera app tutorial for the basics. I have it and it looks intense. I edit in Davinci Resolve.
Assolutamente fantastico! I'm compiling a list of iPhone Filmmaking Experts (Gurus), and you are one of the top three... maybe my fav.
Grazie 🙏
Really well done! This is the best overview I've seen of the current realities and capabilities of using an iPhone in a professional way along with the new great Blackmagic Camera app. And I've viewed many videos now. Thanks. Subscribed.
Thanks 🙏!
Why upload in highly compressed 1080p? TH-cam's compression is so bad it basically looks like 720p, that is 1/8th the resolution of 4k...
I've watched many things in 720p and this footage looks way better.
I understand what you're saying, although really High quality video to begin with, will still compress down well compared with lesser quality video compressed down.
Again, I see your point, but many TV's/monitors, phones and tablets that this video will be watched on; can't handle more that 1080p without glitching...like mine.
So, for a TH-cam video, I think this is fine and got the point across.
Saying that, I did check to see if it was uploaded in a higher definition than 1080p and was surprised it was not. Those folk (possibly yourself) with a large 4k TV, will be disappointed not having that choice, so again, I understand where you're comming from Kim.
I agree. To me any video demostrating how cinematic video is produced should always be uploaded in 4K. Why not? I can really tell the difference right off. These days most everyone has a 4K TV or monitor.
Amazing output! I started with filming and use only the iPhone15pro for the beginning and you inspirited me. Can you tell us if you used for the final video some extra gear, linke gimbal, lenses something like that? Many thanks in advance! Please do more content like that!
Hi thanks! I planend to use a nd filter but i ended up not using it because we had to run trough locations. The only extra gear was a ssd to save the prores files.
@@atlas-stories thanks. I bought an DJI gimbal. Not sure if I would need it.
Brilliant video
Amazing video! Thanks so much mate!
How does HEVC Log (Blackmagic) compare to ProRes Log? Particularly for grading and final output. As you mention, the difference in file sizes are extreme. Thanks, and great video!
Good question. I will test that cos i'm curious too. I have the feeling though that the HEVC bitrate is too low to allow a basic color correction without it falling apart. If I need to save space I would probably choose Prores 422 with the Blackmagic app which would cut the file size by 40% compared to apple's Prores HQ
I think the biggest problem with ProRes is it's impracticality. 12gb for 1 minute of 4k60 is just ridiculous. Also with the iPhone incapable of shooting in 4k120fps like the Sony Xperia series, I still find those smartphone with their built in pro cinema controls to still be the best option offered on mobile devices. They just don't get as much fanfare because of Sony's lack of marketing and weaker computational processing. Otherwise, the Sony Xperia 1 V has the most cinematic video straight out of camera.
It looks nice but some shots clearly still look like overprocessed phone footage. Have you considered trying an android phone with the motioncam app to shoot cdng raw video? If you do you'll realise sensor size doesn't matter much. Even a small mediocre camera sensor from a $200 android phone is capable of shooting footage that looks beautiful and natural if you shoot unprocessed cdng raw video with it - i.e. looks the same as something shot with Magic Lantern on a Canon DSLR.
Of course you're limited to shooting in good lighting conditions, and the shooting experience isn't very good. But other limitations like lack of shallow DOF or limited dynamic range start to matter less when raw video from Android phones looks so good
Thanks for the suggestion. I haven't considered it mostly because i'm afraid of cdng file size and all its workflow implications. But you've triggered my curiosity and i'll take a look.
@@atlas-stories file sizes are huge but not much more than prores 422hq, as I believe it might be lossless compressed raw. You do need a phone with enough storage space, or one with a fast enough Usb-c port to record on an ssd. The most annoying thing is you have convert the footage from a proprietary raw format into cdng, you can do that in the phone or with software on your a computer
Informative.
In what format do you save the edited videos and how big are the files after editing?
The edited video is H264 mp4 with 15.000 kb/s, file size is 122 MB.
Best nutshell
Well, that all seemed very professional, and you are recommending this phone camera to people just starting on
a career in filnmaking.- so why then do you ppronounce the 5X lensas 'five ecks' when it should be 5 TIMES. It's the multiplication symbol after all. Too many reviewers are falling into this trap and people are just copying it...
you're right, it's 5 times
Thanks!@@atlas-stories
It's a filmmaker not a filmaker
