Phones Canada is excited to announce the launch of the new video capture app called Final Cut Camera, along with an update to Final Cut Pro for iPad 2. These releases are designed to empower video creators with enhanced control and flexibility in their productions.

Teased last month alongside the introduction of the new M2 iPad Air and M4 iPad Pro, Final Cut Camera is a standalone app for iPhone and iPad that also serves as a companion tool for the iPad. With this app, users can fine-tune camera settings such as white balance, manual focus, ISO, shutter speed, and resolution. They can also monitor audio levels and battery life.

Key features of Final Cut Camera include:

– Ability to disable iPhone’s built-in stabilization for use with external gimbals
– Remote control of iPhone camera from an iPad’s larger screen when paired together

In addition to the new app, Apple has updated Final Cut Pro for iPad with a new version optimized for the iPad Pro’s M4 chip. This updated version offers faster rendering speeds and support for more ProRes RAW streams. The Live Multicam feature enables users to connect and preview up to four cameras simultaneously, providing a director’s view of each camera with manual settings control through the Final Cut Camera app.

To address storage concerns, Final Cut Pro for iPad 2 now supports external projects, allowing users to work on large files without utilizing internal storage space. It also integrates seamlessly with the Apple Pencil Pro, leveraging its barrel roll and squeeze features for precise control over Live Drawing tools and quick access to brushes and settings.

Existing users can access Final Cut Pro for iPad 2 as a free update, while new users have the option to purchase it for $4.99 per month or $49 per year via the app store. Furthermore, Final Cut Pro for Mac has been updated to version 10.8, incorporating AI-driven enhancements to streamline workflow efficiency.

Stay tuned for more updates on innovative tools and technologies from Phones Canada!
