Blackmagic Camera 2.0: Multiple iPhone support

As stated by Blackmagic Design: โ€œToday we released Blackmagic Camera for iOS 2.0, which adds support for remotely controlling and monitoring multiple iPhones at the same time. This means your iPhone can be set up as a controller so phones running Blackmagic Camera can be securely connected using a wired or wifi network. This lets you view all your cameras in a multi-view, allowing you to monitor and control things like zoom, focus, white balance, frame rate, shutter angle, or lens selection on an individual camera or adjust all connected cameras at the same time. It also enables you to synchronize all your cameras so they start and stop recording at the same timeโ€. In addition, this update adds support to capture up to 100fps in HD on iPhone 15 Pro ($469.89 on Amazon) . There is also a new option to select multiple clips in the media tab so you can copy or delete them all at once. This feature speeds up your workflow as it allows you to quickly and easily clear space or copy clips to an external drive.

When used as a controller the iPadโ€™s larger display makes it easier to monitor multiple cameras in either a multi-view setup with up to nine cameras on screen at a time or scroll through each individual camera.
