[@ORyan24]

Thank you a lot for everything. How can I get Apple Logo on my iPhone Pro Max 14 at PRO RES 422 HQ? Rec.709, Rec.2020 - HDR and P3D65 only are shown in Blackmagic Cam app.

[@dattkiddpolo]

Question where did you get the Apple Watch mount

[@TheNailSpecialist]

Can you use the small rig magnetic filter adapter with this instead of the universal one? And what shotgun mic would you choose

[@MoondustProductionFilms]

It looks bulkier than the Brando Li small rig you showcased in another video.

[@bazlur-Vancouver]

I have most of the gear shown here but have not used them yet. Bought the older smallrig universal kit a year ago, but after watching the new one with magnetic attachment, ordered the new universal rig from Smallrig. I don't have an iPhone 15 Pro or Promax. Use Galaxy S22 with Filmic Pro League version and the video is very nice. I bought a Magsafe magnet and glued it on the case and it works. I bought the power bank, but too big to fit or it will fit, but the weight is too much. I'm thinking of buying thinner and smaller size power banks 5000-10000 mAh. Thanks for sharing the video. Like small rig and Ulanzi accessories(higher quality).

How are you able to use the magnetic filter attachment with that phone cage? I have the same filter adapter and cage and the filter gets in the way of the MagSafe mount. Edit: nevermind I missed the part where this was an ip15promax. I just have the 15pro. 15 pro owners take not. You cannot use this cage and the filter adapter together.

[@davidyisrael403]

How to record multiple mic inputs (at least 2 mics) on separate audio channels, without the need of an external audio recording device?

Thank you for the video and recommendations.. I have used your link to purchase the entire setup... can't wait to start shooting... I do have a question, How do I configure my apple watch so I can view it through my watch like you do..I will be using it on my wrist since it is the watch I use everyday and they don't have the holder for it anymore as you said.

Thanks a bunch! I have a video about it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYTCipusa8tlm5osi=9JVVuD803cYO0nOC

[@issjustchad]

Great video! Do you have a recommendation for a gimbal that can support the phone while it's in the cage?

[@BenettGraezer]

It might be best to use it with a cage instead of a rig and for that I would recommend the Zhiyun M3

[@bradprentice]

Double WOW...Great video!! About how much did the setup shown cost? (less iPhone 15)

[@BenettGraezer]

Thanks for your comment! Will Update that 👍🏻

[@josephullian1556]

I just built a version of this rig using a VANGREE USB C to USB C Hub-3 USB 3.2 Gen 2 Ports with 10Gbps, 4K@60Hz HDMI Multiport Adapter, 100W PD, 2 USB 3.0 & SD/TF Card Reader, USB-C Splitter. I use it with a Samsung SSD and a power brick and a Rode wireless system. This hub also has a HDMI out, so that I can connect to a monitor when I have a separate camera operator. When using this rig, you have to remember that this is a phone. That means you have to turn on airplane mode so that the phone won’t ring in the middle of a shot. Also, you have to turn off Standby or the phone turns into a clock when the power brick battery charges the phone. The rig is still lighter than my rigged out Sony FX3 and is much less expensive.

[@BenettGraezer]

Thank you for sharing your rig version as well as the additional tips 👍🏻

[@TheBo]

Hi Joseph, what battery block are you using to power the Vangree hub and does it power all 4 USB-C ports? Thanks!

[@KofiBlades]

Thank you for your video. I was seriously contemplating using this cage over their older universal one. However, I’ve read complaints about the 15 Pro Max in a case with a lens, will cause the phone to tilt, while in the clamp and it was annoying having to continually readjust the iPhone, leveling it off at frequent intervals. Have you had that issue?Your response will inform my purchasing decision.

[@BenettGraezer]

Thanks a lot for watching! The clamp does move very slightly due to the detachable design which could affect the leveling. I haven’t found it to be an issue. However if you do need the best stability, I would suggest you go for a rig that has a built in spring clamp such as the older rigs from smallrig.

[@utah62]

Thank you for sharing. It's a great setup, but personally too large. I'm looking for a more minimalist solution for my iPhone 15 Pro and a LaCie SSD. I've also looked at the SmallRig 2791B (future-proof as well), but it's also 22cm wide. Do you have another small solution, perhaps?

[@BenettGraezer]

Thanks for sharing! Have you check out the cage co designed by brandon li?

[@utah62]

Yes but is for 15 pro max. also I want to keep my case on.

[@rioborzeli147]

Great Video, New to the 15 max pro, But wondering the cage is quite large as it is made for any cell. I would like a cage made just for the pro max, smaller as well to fit nicely

[@BenettGraezer]

Thanks a lot, i have a video on the iphone 15 pro max cage co dwaigned with brandon, which might interest you :)

[@SharingTravelMoments]

Hey Bennett great videos, I took your advice and downloaded the Blackmagic Camera App, but am I missing something as I can’t work out how to just take pictures and not video ?

[@BenettGraezer]

Thanks a lot, the black magic camera app is only for video. You might want to check out the pro camera app by moment for photo.

[@SharingTravelMoments]

Thanks I will take a look at that app@@BenettGraezer

[@stanl0pez]

Good video. I have a iphone 15 pro max setup and found that the external SSD is extra weight that isnt needed if youre using the BM app. It stores the files internally through the app and you can just dump the files to your SSD when back at home. Less weight, less power usage.

[@BenettGraezer]

Thanks for sharinf your thoughts! Yes that istrue, however for recording in a higher quality format duch as ProPres 422 HQ i still recommend using an external ssd due to the lager file size it produces :).

[@songieesiang]

May I know the complete name of “BM” apps ?

[@TheClintJohnston]

Probably Black Magic camera app@@songieesiang

Is there anyway to charge the Bluetooth shutter on the smallrig cage or does it have a replaceable battery?

[@RealRasheedImran]

brother amazing video , any alternative for accessory mention above. it’s the only thing that make or break this purchase for me.. @benettgraezer

[@TheClintJohnston]

Thanks for the ideas! Do you think, if you're going to build a rig like this, that there's much point in paying extra for a 512GB or 1TB 15 Pro Max over the 256GB?

[@BenettGraezer]

If you have the extra budget and use your iPhone for professional work then yes. This way you won‘t necessarily need an external ssd

[@fujisanchannel2753]

[@Kabbuch]

Hello Benett, can you add headphones to your camera setup? That would be a great complete solution! Greetings from France

[@Savage_247]

@@BenettGraezer OK no worries, I'm building a slightly compact version of your setup with the battery and ssd mounted to the back of the phone within the Brandon li small rig cage which I'm confident will fit on the gimbal. I'll let you know how it goes! Thanks again for the video, totally changed my mind about the concept of taking shooting onto phones seriously 🙏

[@zenusss]

Doesn't the SSD get in the way of tilting down with the gimbal? Like wouldnt it be in the frame?

Ok... so i tried to search for any cold shoe mount compatible with Apple Watch and guess what, can't find it anywhere. It's suck that somehow they stopped selling these useful small application lol

[@yohannsphotographyvideogra9542]

what u forgot to mention is a usb-c hub with a pd 90/80 watt power with an extra battery to power the whole system rig specially if u want to save to external ssd hd and if you want to monitor your recording audio you need rode audio input that provides software for audio recording . sorry body but you have to show the whole picture in order to make it work for a real video recorder rig..

[@larshabermann8829]

Great idea with the hub, but what must be done, what`s the setup so that the iPhone saves the video to the external ssd and not in the integrated storage?

[@BenettGraezer]

Once your ssd is connected in the BMC app you can select your external storage. On the Default Camera app it will automatically detect the sad and record it externally.

[@larshabermann8829]

@@BenettGraezer Thanks. BMC is the solution.

[@tusBerneFussball]

For me, most important is: an external handle (wheel) to control the zoom! Is there something in the market?

[@BenettGraezer]

Not that I know of. I know it exists with gimbal, such ad the dji om 6 that has a zoom/focus wheel but it requires you to use it with their dji mimo app.

[@modelm22]

excellent video

[@BenettGraezer]

Thank you very much!

[@itsbrandom_]

This looks great but is it more stabilized than using a gimbal ? I wonder how steady this would be for doing real estate shoots

[@BenettGraezer]

The weight definitely helps with the stability. I think with both handles and a steady walk you can get pretty smooth results :)

[@GaryRogersDOP]

Hey, great rig.. can i ask if you have any trouble with the phone or Blackmagic App seeing the SSD Drive? I have a Samsung T7 1TB and i'll point the file save to the T7 in the Blackmagic App and if I lock the camera between takes and go back into the App more often than not the T7 has disappeared and even unplugging it and plugging back in can be hit and miss as to how long it takes to pop back up to use again.. I'm just wondering if it's a slightly dodgy drive.. I use a brand new short 40GBs lead so ruled that one out!

[@BenettGraezer]

I havent experienced any problem so far. The connection has remained stable. You might consider formating you SSD to APFS.For Mac users, APFS is generally the better choice, as it's optimized for Mac systems and offers better performance on SSDs.

[@BeardedBrummyHikingChronicles]

Ah thanks for that, I’ll give that one a go and see if it’s any better.. 👍👍

Wow name of products please i love it

[@MaximoJoshua]

That is pretty cool! Apple Watch doesn’t work with black magic camera app yet, so I would love to see an hdmi monitor instead of the light. The light is cool, but I’d rather it was independent of the camera. I have experimented with AirPlay and hdmi, and both work well. Also, for the variable ND. I want to get a case that has the mount built in, I really hate the way the clips work/look. Was comparing some options that also allow an anamorphic lens.

[@BenettGraezer]

Thanks for sharing your story thoughts, some great inputs💯

[@MaximoJoshua]

@@BenettGraezer I ended up getting a Viltrox HDMI monitor which works perfectly. I also got the neewer case, which has a mount for 67mm filters, and I got the K&F Concept Variable ND 2-400. It's a very flexible set up, good for run-and-gun, tripod/static or something in between.

[@pdcorlis]

Woah - that is one tricked out rig! I really like the idea of using the USB C hub. It’s amazing how versatile the iPhone has become. FWIW - I prefer a universal cage as shown here. The more form fitting camera specific “cages” are great, but they need to be replaced every time you upgrade your iPhone. Let’s hear it for MagSafe and futureproofing!

[@BenettGraezer]

Took me some time to build this but i like it 😁 Thanks a lot!

[@stevenroth8950]

If using the Pro Max 15 with 512GB or 1TB, is it still necessary to get an additional external storage? Shooting in Pro Res or Pro Res LT; other apps/media on phone would approximately take 8oGB.

[@jondemske9735]

FYI: you can only film 4k log 60fps by recording to external storage. if you don't need 60fps you should be fine, though then you have the added workflow step of transferring your files from your phone to your computer to edit, whereas with an sd card or external ssd you can just connect them and begin editing

[@ShaunWavePlus]

so i can use my rode me type c connection and the ssd type c connection with the iphone 15 pro max??

Since most of us already have a phone with a built-in camera in our pocket, you basically have a “free” camera. Additionally, accessories for smartphones are generally more affordable compared to those for traditional cameras.

To all those who are planning to shoot "Pro Videos" with iPhone 15 Pro max, keep your expectations low-like really low. First, 2x and 5X lenses are not sharp. Second, noise levels are very high. You can only get acceptable results if you are under really bright light and using ND filters. The dynamic range is very low. I would recommend getting DJI OP3 and shooting with that. The only downside is not having telescopic lenses.

Knowing my clients, it could work as a stationary camera but the movement may be to swift and "Phone Like" that most would just think its cute. With that being said this makes for a great action cam and or vlog camera. It is amazing but it will never replace my main camera A7 IV simply because iPhone can't do anamorphic at all.
