Blackmagic Design has released version 3.1.2 of its Blackmagic Camera app for iOS, further refining the feature-rich 3.1 update that introduced ProRes RAW, Apple Log 2, Open Gate recording, and powerful remote-sync tools.<\/p>\n
The new release (App Store link<\/a>) addresses several bugs while adding 1920\u00d71440 Open Gate recording with Apple Log, catching up with what\u2019s possible with Apple\u2019s latest generation of iPhone Pros.<\/p>\n Since we last covered version 3.0, both 3.1 and 3.1.2 have transformed the app from a capable companion to a professional-level tool, bridging smartphone capture with DaVinci Resolve workflows.<\/p>\n Version 3.1 debuted support for\u00a0ProRes RAW\u00a0recording and\u00a0Apple Log 2\u00a0on the new iPhone 17 Pro models, both of which Apple introduced<\/a> in their Camera and Final Cut Camera 2.0 apps<\/a> with the latest iPhone prior to that.<\/p>\n Blackmagic also added compatibility with its\u00a0Camera ProDock, enabling HDMI monitoring, external timecode, and Genlock sync \u2013 features that mirror those of professional Blackmagic cameras. We just received the Blackmagic ProDock for review and will put it through its paces soon alongside the iPhone 17 Pro.<\/p>\n The update didn\u2019t stop at codec and hardware integration. A redesigned interface introduced a\u00a0dedicated lens panel\u00a0for quick zoom control and a new\u00a0dolly-zoom automation\u00a0mode. The histogram can now expand to full screen, complete with clipping indicators for each channel, while the audio meters gained a full-screen view for easier level monitoring.<\/p>\n Other key tools include:<\/p>\n Remote camera control\u00a0for multi-iPhone setups, allowing synchronized recording and live monitoring.Time-lapse mode\u00a0directly within the frame-rate panel.Three programmable function buttons\u00a0for fast access to custom settings like autofocus, ISO, or white balance.A new\u00a02\u00d7 anamorphic de-squeeze\u00a0option and a comprehensive\u00a0LUT manager\u00a0that lets users import, export, or bake looks into footage.Proxy live sync, which uploads proxies to\u00a0Blackmagic Cloud\u00a0while recording, and a\u00a0live-streaming section\u00a0for direct cloud broadcasting.<\/p>\n Together, these additions made the iPhone feel much closer to operating a URSA Mini Pro or Pocket Cinema Camera, marking a major step toward unifying the mobile and professional ecosystems.<\/p>\n What\u2019s new in version 3.1.2<\/p>\n Just released, the\u00a03.1.2 update\u00a0focuses on fine-tuning the experience while introducing\u00a01920\u00d71440 Open Gate recording with Apple Log\u00a0\u2014 a format ideal for reframing between horizontal and vertical outputs\u00a0.<\/p>\n According to Blackmagic\u2019s release notes, the patch also:<\/p>\n Fixed an issue where stabilization could not be disabled.Resolved problems preventing immediate use of newly imported LUTs.Corrected orientation errors in ProRes RAW recordings when orientation lock was active.Addressed rare recording failures on iOS 26.Improved overall performance and stability.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/remote-en-xl-900x419.jpg\")
