The most UNDERRATED BMPCC4K Feature? [Apple/Android Controller App] | Frame Voyager

[@GlennUpgraded]

Is the app also a monitor app? I mean can you see on the app what your camera can see or just the plain controller?

[@FrameVoyager]

Unfortunately no. Just a controller app, though in studio when you use it with an external monitor it works quite well!

[@arresteddevlopment1]

Do you know if this app allows you to take stills on the android app?

[@FrameVoyager]

That is a good question. I'm not actually sure! I'll look into it

[@ElusiveFrame]

I wonder if anything works with the OG BMPCC 🤔 In any case, it's really sad there is no official Android app in this day and age. Kudus to the developers 💪

[@FrameVoyager]

That's a good question 🤔. You have me curious to check now But yeah, it's annoying how everyone just assumes apple is what everyone uses. I'm more of a windows and android guy, I like the flexibility of building my own machine. Blackmagic has always catered more towards apple users. Makes sense on some levels but still annoying for the rest of us 😂

[@ElusiveFrame]

@@FrameVoyager I agree with you. I'm an Android and Windows guy myself :) Getting a good pc for a better price and having full control of it has always been my preferred choice 😎

[@FrameVoyager]

@@ElusiveFrame for sure! And such better flexibility with 3rd party products and coding elements tbh.

[@deteQtiv]

Good one :) On my side, I was tired of so many different apps and pairing (for the RGB lights, for the prompter, for the different cameras, ...). I use a small dedicated controller for the P4K, works like a charm.

[@FrameVoyager]

Smart! It would be nice if someone developed an app that could control multiple devices at once. Aputure lighting, the blackmagic cameras, a slider, audio levels, etc. All in one app.

[@DavidJonesImages]

Works well for wildlife filming, set up shot, hide, start recording what subject appears.

[@PureVisionGFX]

This is very useful, thanks.

[@FrameVoyager]

No problem!

[@jcfilmz]

very nice very nice

[@FrameVoyager]

Thanks!

[@nicolmicah]

Love that Android app. Super helpful. One issue... The Bluetooth doesn't extend quite as far as I'd like for pressing record or shutter. If I'm using anything closer to a telephoto lens for self filming, it won't trigger.

[@FrameVoyager]

Yeah, that's just the nature of bluetooth unfortunately. Still with that limited range I love using it in a studio setting when filming alone

[@adamjohnzon]

🙌🙌🙌 good stuff

[@FrameVoyager]

Appreciate it!

[@krystofpoboril]

The focus thing works with Metabones as well. I would like to try the power zoom function some time in the future.. It’s exclusive for m43 lenses though.

[@FrameVoyager]

Interesting, Definitely planning on delving deeper into this in the future. There are a lot of weird things you could pull off with this app

[@warevol]

I'm 2 years late but how'd you get the focus to work with Metabones? It's not happening for me.

[@krystofpoboril]

@@warevol Any more details? Lens, settings, firmware?

[@RaicesUrbanasTj]

Will the bluthoth + work whit metabones speedboster

[@sobadaham]

Android slash windows user here...! 😉

[@FrameVoyager]

You're in good company here 😂

[@RogerinFinland]

Any issues or improvements with the firmware 7.3? Love the contents by the way; if you'd have 2 more zeroes at the end of number of subscribers I wouldn't have been surprised one bit 👏🏻👍🏻

[@FrameVoyager]

Haven't tested it out yet actually. Will be doing some filming today so I'll let you know if I run into any issues! And thanks! haha I'll get there someday hopefully!

[@RogerinFinland]

@@FrameVoyager I "had" to get the app and test it out... It turns out that my BMPCC4K was at 6.9.5 aka "the version where bluetooth doesn't work" :D So I "had to" update to 7.3 and pretty much everything seems to work nicely. I'm especially excited about the focus control with my Olympus 1.8 lenses. Thanks again for the video!

[@trouver1nom141]

Can you guys remove Metadata of a clip you already shoot with the application??

[@FrameVoyager]

Hmmm... I don't think so? But that's an interesting thought

[@trouver1nom141]

Thank you for taking the time to answer me

[@FrameVoyager]

@@trouver1nom141 no problem!

[@VilkanVisions]

I can't use follow focus function on my 6k ☹️

[@FrameVoyager]

Man, that sucks. I wonder what the difference is between the MFT system and the EF system that keeps it from working.

[@VilkanVisions]

@@FrameVoyager I wonder too and it was disappointment because it was feature I needed the most 😔

[@FrameVoyager]

@@VilkanVisions for real! It's super helpful for my work. I'll look into it and see if there is a reason

[@timlapointe4067]

Just wish you could monitor the screen from the app.

[@FrameVoyager]

Same! If gopro can do it they should be able to as well

[@RogerinFinland]

That's one thing I do like of my Zcam E2c and the app. The UI from Blackmagic and the Android app shown in the video look MUCH easier to use though!

[@cbob213]

This app is only available on iPad.... The rest of the video: So on your iPhone.....

[@FrameVoyager]

hahaha didn't even realize I did that. I'm a android guy so really a slip of the tongue ha!
