Introducing Digital Film for iPhone and iPad!
Blackmagic Camera unlocks the power of your iPhone and iPad by adding digital film camera controls and operating systems! Now you can create the same cinematic ‘look’ as Hollywood feature films. You get the same intuitive and user friendly interface as Blackmagic Design’s award winning cameras. So it’s just like using a professional digital film camera! This means you can adjust settings such as frame rate, shutter angle, white balance and ISO all in a single tap. Or record directly to Blackmagic Cloud in industry standard 10-bit Apple ProRes files up to 4K! Recording to Blackmagic Cloud Storage lets you collaborate on DaVinci Resolve projects with editors anywhere in the world, all at the same time!
Get the "Hollywood Look" with Digital Film!
Blackmagic Camera puts the professional features you need for feature film, television and documentaries in your pocket. Now you can create YouTube and TikTok content with a cinematic look, and broadcast quality ENG! Imagine having a run and gun camera on hand to capture breaking news whenever it happens! Or use Blackmagic Camera as a B Cam to capture angles that are difficult to reach with traditional cameras, while still retaining control of important settings. Best of all, recording to Blackmagic Cloud allows you to get your footage to the newsroom or post production studio in minutes.
Interactive Controls for Fast Setup
Blackmagic Camera has all the controls you need to quickly setup and start shooting! Everything is interactive, so you can tap any item and instantly change settings without searching through confusing menus! The HUD shows status and record parameters, histogram, focus peaking indicators, levels, frame guides and more. Show or hide the HUD by swiping up or down. You can auto focus by tapping the screen in the area you want to focus. You can shoot in 16:9 or vertical aspect ratios, plus you can shoot 16:9 while holding your phone vertically if you want to shoot unobtrusively.
On Screen Heads Up Display
The heads up display, or HUD, controls have the most important camera controls such as lens selection, frame rate, shutter angle, timecode, ISO, white balance, gain and audio levels. You can adjust settings such as exposure by touching the ISO indicator, or you can change the audio levels simply by touching the audio meters. Everything is interactive, so if you tap any item you can instantaneously change its settings without having to search through complex menus!
Camera Setup Menus
The settings tab unlocks the full power of your phone’s camera, with quick access to advanced settings such as monitoring, audio, camera setup, recording and more! The record tab gives you total control over video resolution and recording format including industry standard Apple ProRes or space efficient H.264 and H.265. Plus, you can set anamorphic de-squeeze and lens correction settings. Professional audio options include AAC and PCM format and VU or PPM audio metering. You can even add external microphones! Or add 3D LUTs to recreate film looks!
Media
The Blackmagic Camera media tab has all the controls you need to browse or scrub clips for quick review, search and sort and view the upload status of your media. Access your media from Blackmagic Camera’s all clips folder by choosing the Media button to see the thumbnails for each clip you have stored. Plus, you can save to the files folder on the phone, send it to Blackmagic Cloud Storage via Blackmagic Cloud or manually choose which clips to upload to a project library. You can even sync media from Blackmagic Camera directly into the DaVinci Resolve project so you’re ready to edit!
Live Sync to Blackmagic Cloud Storage
When shooting with Blackmagic Camera, the video you capture can be instantly uploaded as a proxy file, followed by the camera originals, and saved to Blackmagic Cloud Storage. This means you can start editing quickly using your proxies, speeding up your workflow.
Blackmagic Design’s video-editing apps and digital film cameras have powered blockbusters like F1 The Movie. The app mirrors the feel of those pro cameras with full manual controls and support for 4K and high-frame-rate recording, paired with the ease and unexpected perspectives offered by iPhone and iPad.
Amazing! But I have a feature request
John Noble
Amazing software. Thank you so much for making it available for nothing. But! I’d really love a feature to turn off creation of proxies on-device. I presume it’s contributing to my iPhone 12 mini’s overheating. I get ‘system pressure’ all the time and can only shoot for about 10 minutes until I literally have to put my phone in the freezer. I have a Mac mini under the desk running the proxy generator. I really don’t need my iPhone to do it!Update: feature implemented! 🙌🏼
Best Video Making App so far, could be better

PLS give the option to make scrolling wheel position consistent with finger position!! Update 1.2 made fast and smoothly scrolling of any dial impossible, as anytime the speed of finger slowed to below a certain speed, it will enter a “precise mode” and barely move even if you swipe to the edge of the screen. The feel is very binary, and completely unintuitive. I would like to request that this feature to be optional or even reverted in the next update, as the previous version is already accurate enough even for a single stop adjustment. Also, there seems to be a bug when working with a Nucleus Nano, once in a while the image will zoom in to above 10x and stays there, or zoom in a little bit and out, which is quite weird. This problem persists from the last version, the probability of triggering dropped, but it still happens. BTW, big applause for the addition of false color while recording, save me the cost of an HDMI adaptor and an external monitor, and avoided a complex setup, thank you!
Did the latest update or iOS 26 break this app?
Zap_
I use this app for my work on my iPhone 15 pro max, I’ve never had any issues. It is now all but unusable. Both cinematic and extreme stabilization don’t work anymore, they always worked perfectly 100% of the time, I get overheating errors in the app when trying to use cinematic or extreme stabilize - that’s with a cold iPhone that hasn’t been used. It’s a bad bug, and I never got it before, even when filming for hours at a time! You can no longer scroll through your media, it very seldom lets you scroll through your videos, this in intermittent - about 90% of the time you can’t scroll. Again, this never happened before. This app is now unusable. Oh, and I forgot to mention, it let me down on the day I was filming a property video and the home owner worked for BlackMagic and on this app, he was crazy embarrassed! And I forgot to mention, random dark splotches appear on footage now, you can see it happen when filming. As a huge fan of BlackMagic and pro user of this app, I feel betrayed, it cost me a client and ruined my shoot!
