    Halo effect warning. I own/use some other Blackmagic camera, controls, and software; they’re industrial strength. I was irrationally avoiding them for reasons I can’t even recall now. Probably some BS “Who are they? They can’t possibly be any good.” So I’m excited to try this out, but my knee jerk reaction is: FINALLY! Blackmagic’s products IMO have so much attention to things pros need, that even if this is only so-so, it could easily evolve into making Android phones a semi-proper video camera competitor to iOS ProRes.

    Yeah, that doesn’t really answer your question, but hopefully adds some context to something something cinnamon toast crunch.

      I see. Seems to be a pretty good piece of software, though being proprietary. Just tried installing and it seems to require Android 13+ and I’m on 11 sadly :/
