this is HUGE. I think not many people can appreciate the difference between a "normal" camera and a phone camera, but when you're a cinematographer you notice immediately. Apple log takes iPhone so many steps forward in terms of looking like an actual cine camera.

The lack of sharpness makes the apple log look SO much better than anything ever shot on a smartphone!

[Foodgeek]

Apple Log just hit Flimic Pro. Now we're just missing record to external drive :D

[DennisSchmitz]

4:51 quite impressive how much better the Apple Log graded image looks. Shadows are super clean for a phone in this situation. Results I would otherwise only get with MotionCam on Android which is very difficult to deal with.

This is fantastic!

[gravitymediapro]

Great, great test - thank you! I think Filmic Pro may need to change back to the freemium model sooner vs later.

[robborr]

Im confused by your discussion on the Filmic Pro vs native camera because Filmic Pro gives me the option of shooting in both Pro Res 709 and Apple Pro Res Log. Filmic Pro offers both

[tuanofakind]

Great video ! I initially thought you were only going to compare FiLMiC Pro with the native iPhone app and was about to ask you to compare FiLMiC Pro with the Blackmagic app, but we can see here that the difference between the two like the actual log performance and disabling digital sharpening/noise reduction is very obvious. I was wondering if you could go even further to compare the two apps' features, especially quality/bitrate options, the ability to lock shutter speed while keeping ISO on auto for vlogging/varying lighting, the remote control with another phone feature etc... That'd be perfect, thank you !

Does shooting in log finally allow us to disable dynamic tone mapping and get useable manual exposure footage in high contrast settings?

[limebulls]

Do you use variable ND filters for the iPhone? What filters and adapters to attach it to the iPhone do you recommend?

[DigiDriftZone]

Fantastic video and Apple Log is certainly not a gimmick. The iPhone certainly can be used in a lot more situations now, but with that said, the utlrawide and tele lenses are pretty bad (13mm f/10 and 77mm f/24 or 120mm f/21 on the Max equivalents to FF). But even the primary camera is still only a 24mm f/6.3 FF equivalent which does limit you quite a lot with what you can use it for.

Other than if I forgot my proper camera, I can't see a situation where I would prefer to use an iPhone over say an also very compact Sony ZV-E1 and a tiny f/2.8 prime.

Would love to see the background work with LUTs etc.

[steven_yoon]

Apple LOG is so mindblowing... and I think this is one of the most impressive leap in video since the first gen iPhone. Do you agree? :)

[slackliner]

Anywhere raw video files available to download of Apple Log from iPhone 15P ?

[SirKayTravels]

Ok so, how can one get the apple log thing on Iphone 14 pro max or it's only for the 15? I've just downloaded the BM App & If I choose the HVEC 265 or 264 does it mean I'm already shooting Apple Log?

[AlanBerry]

Thanks for doing this. I was wondering about it.

[EmadApple]

I am planning to purchase your LUTs for apple log but I have 2 questions
1- can i trust the auto exposure in the Blackmagic app coz i will be filming my self?
2. Which setting i should go with to use Lumafusion
1080p. H264 or h265 or proress 444?

[Fishcakebuttie]

Love a video on if it’s possible to record external Drive and still record sound on a external shotgun mic due to there only been one USDC port.

[MaximoJoshua]

I wish there was some way to get a hold of some raw apple log footage...even just the color charts would be amazing

[LouisLuzuka]

I’m a little confused about finding the right shutter with apple log, how do you shoot 180 degree shutter 😮in the native app

[JeffreySutton]

I love your content. You answered my question. Thank you once again. - What do you think about shooting apple log on the Moment Pro Camera app? Will the image look the same as the Black Magic app?
