iPhone 15 Pro Max Cinematic Lowlight

How did you like the lowlight Apple log footage and the video I made?

[@theamazingworldoutthere]

looks like a movie

🤡

[@alexg.6658]

​@@Matthi508 Hey, I was inspired once I saw this video about ya ear ago. It was magnificent, so I wanted also to try filming with lenses. But Life is hard (and busy), and I had to postpone this filming. Now, I plan to try something on the New Year holidays. Could you say a few words or share updates related to lenses? Usually, I have problems with wide-frame scenes, long-distance zooms out, and subject filming. I hope to add flexibility to these lenses. Also, I'm excited to film the night with my iPhone.

Great video and superb cinematography. My interaction with Freewell after purchasing the Sherpa system for my iPhone 15 Pro Max has been quite disgusting. The lenses do not sit securely and wobble. I raised this in the hope it was just the case but after detailed explanations and photo I simply got two line emails not responding to my questions but requesting I do more and more work, like the request to make a video. The emails are designed to waste my time and give up. How are your lenses, do the move easily or wobble?

[@NOlimitsON]

Thanks! In my use case everything is fine… it’s sad to hear that there are such issues…

Hey There we have sent you email & ask too provide the details so will appreciate to follow up on that so we can understand the problem & help you solve the same at Freewell we stand behind our product if they have problem we will solve it. So when we have a specific request we will appreciate your follow on them as we are trying to understand your issue so we can handle it better rather than wasting all the parties time.

[@vegasrenie]

I haven't had any problems with my Freewell Sherpa filters. I haven't purchased any of the lenses yet, but with both my iPhone 14 and my iPhone 15, I've had no issues. I don't use them all of the time, but when I do the issues have been pretty much nonexistent. Now if I hit the filter, of course it will pop off, but otherwise, no problems. 4:27

Low light video is where phones really fall apart and don't stand a chance against even the most budget modern mirrorless cameras with a fast lens. Valiant effort regardless.

Thanks a lot dude, I am totally new to filming stuff and simply looking for small guidelines to improve my videos. So H265 is fine quality-wise I guess since your videos looked pretty amazing. Everyone was telling me I HAD to use ProRes but the file sizes simply are so gigantic and I really dont want to carry a ssd with me all the time to spontaniously film some random stuff. Also thanks a lot for the LUTs you provided. I like your stuff and tbh if you would put together a whole pack in the future I'd gladly pay a few bucks for it to support you.

[@reuterss306]

@@NOlimitsON ofc, I find such videos incredibly interesting, yet I myself really only film basic stuff. So I got one question: what would be your approach to get good results without using gimbals etc? I film 99% on vacation or when a random situation occurs and I usually dont carry gear with me. I thought about just getting a filter, because I have zero experience with extra lenses and if they work with the iphone stabilization...which I really really need for many shots. :D

[@Ronhair]

Amazing… just amazing !!!!!!! Sometimes I wanna give up my mobile film journey. Because I actually want to get to the point where I can make short films but sometimes I make such a bad video I give up. Seeing something like this brings hope. I have a 14 pro max thou.. I know it’s far late but would love to see the 14 doing this if even a 1 minute video

[@NOlimitsON]

Thanks)) unfortunately the 14 Pro Max is not going to give such results… it’s all about Apple Log 🙈

[@NOlimitsON]

[@webinatic216]

From a phone this is great, even amazing. However the lens coating has to be fixed on iPhone to reduce glare. Samsung s23 Ultra and an other phone I can't remember has it reduced. Again, this looks great and I wouldn't even think twice that this wasn't shot on a real camera.

Good job and tricks that conceal iPhones low light flaws. Still cool to be able to shoot in low light

[@LordMaisky]

Gee this is impressive. I'm guessing less than $5k of gear all up and it looks a million buck$, kudos man! I'm wondering, would use the snow mist filter on the phone if you were also cutting together with footage from a Canon R5 and GoPro 12/Insta360? Also, If cinematic mode doesn’t work in log - how do you create the shallow depth of field with log footage?

[@NOlimitsON]

Thanks bro) appreciate it) I can easily cut footage in Apple log with any Sony camera without a snow-mist filter, so I guess you can also mix and match it with Canon R5. As far as shallow depth of field - use 1x camera and get closer to the object - that’s the only way basically

[@LordMaisky]

@@NOlimitsON Will keep that in mind with the 1x camera - so I'm guessing if you attach the 70mm telephoto that helps a lot to create that depth of field with the subject in the foreground. Also, I meant to clarify - if you leave the snow mist filter on the phone would it cut together with DSLR footage, or would you take the snow mist filter off the phone to do this...? (Or conversely, would you prefer to put a snow most filter on a DSLR if the phone has one on?)

[@NOlimitsON]

@@LordMaisky yes) You can film with the snow mist filter and cut with other cameras)

Bravo, amazing footage!! Please could you tell me what shutter speed and ISO did you use for 24 fps? Thanks!!!

Hi! Thanks! I shot in 25p. Shutter was 1/50, iso from 400 to 2000 depending on the lighting in the scene

[@ehsanlatifi1150]

I'm just an amateur but a question... I have a lot of noise when shooting at higher iso at night...what should I do

[@NOlimitsON]

Do you use apple log and 1x camera? Do you shoot in places with some light of like in complete darkness 😅?

[@ehsanlatifi1150]

I use prores log on iPhone 16 pro and based on what you showed on video you used high iso and you got a very clear and aesthetic shot but for me I get noise and my shots are not even taken in very low light could you please help me about this issue

[@NOlimitsON]

@@ehsanlatifi1150 I guess it all comes down to how lowlight it actually is and to color grading)

[@billymckee9438]

Looks awesome but can you clarify one thing for me. It sounds like you shot in Apple Log but it also says H.265 and I thought those were different codec's. Can you help me understand what you shot in while still being able to have a low file size and do reasonable color grading?

[@NOlimitsON]

You confuse codec and color space) I shot in Apple log color space and in h265 codec.

Probably you expose incorrectly (image is too dark) or color grade in a wrong way

I've spent the last few weeks trying to get similar shots at night in the city but its always got this disgusting grain in it. No matter if i under expose, expose proper or over expose. When i get back to Davinci its just SO bad i cant save it. I genuinely don't understand how yours looks so clean lol!

I like the compositions, but not the fuzziness with the anamorphic and mist filter lowers the quality substantially. Too much glass in front of a tiny sensor in my opion, but the video is put together well.

It’s just stylized to anamorphic with this lens, it doesn’t affect the lowlight performance itself. So the 1x lens of the iPhone is more than capable in lowlight

While I understand that some of the criticism regarding low light photography on a phone might be lacking in comparison to an actual camera, don't forget that the phone is primarily a communication device.
