Blackmagic Design has unveiled a significant update to its popular Blackmagic Camera app for iOS, which provides a suite of video-oriented tools for shooting video on iOS devices.
The headline feature of Blackmagic Camera 2.0 is its support for multi-camera workflows. This capability allows a single iPhone or iPad to function as a controller for multiple iPhone cameras connected via a wireless or wired network.
In multi-camera setups, users can utilize a multi-view interface to monitor and control each device. This includes precise adjustments for focus, zoom, frame rate, shutter angle, white balance, and lens selection. The update also supports 1080/100p capture on the iPhone 15 Pro and introduces batch copy or delete functionalities within the media tab.
Expanding its versatility, the update extends support to iPads, leveraging the larger screen real estate to display up to nine camera feeds simultaneously.

These new features build upon an already robust app, which already boasted essential tools such as focus peaking, zebras, false color, LUT support, manual camera control, and Apple Log gamma support (available on iPhone 15 Pro models).
With the introduction of multi-cam support, Blackmagic Camera 2.0 positions itself as a competitor to Apple’s subscription-based Final Cut Pro for iPad, which offers the capability to monitor and control up to four iPhone cameras when paired with Apple’s free Final Cut Camera app.
Blackmagic Camera 2.0 is compatible with a wide range of iPhones and iPads, including standard, Mini, Air, and Pro models equipped with Apple’s A12 Bionic or newer processors. It requires iPadOS 17.0 or later and is available for download on the Apple App Store.
