4/5iPhone 15 Pro Max problems
Update: Happy to see that a lot of the previously missing iPhone 15 features are now functional in this app. Can now use Apple Log, ProRes and take 48mp photos with this app. The problems I had with crashing are no longer there. I would still like to see Apple Watch functionality. Updating to 4 stars as promised and will update to 5 if Apple Watch remote is added. Thanks for the updates and a great app! I used this app for the first time after acquiring the iPhone 15 Pro Max. I love the app and its functionality and plan on buying a beast cage when available. There are however some issues, I understand the 15 just launched recently and these issues may be being worked through already. Hopefully an update is coming soon. Here are the issues I’ve noticed in the week or so I have used the app: When leaving the app from photo mode with the 5x tele lens active, the app sometimes crashes upon relaunch. When using 5x tele lens with photo mode, then switching to video mode, the app crashes. Built in iPhone Macro mode does not function in this app. Pro res does not function in this app. There is no way to take 48mp photos. Needs Apple Watch remote functionality for camera mode. I’ll be happy to update my review to 4 stars once the iPhone 15 Pro Max issues are fixed and update to 5 stars if Apple Watch remote functionality is added.

5/5Future is bright! Interface shines through!
Been on the bubble about getting this app for awhile as I already have Filmic Pro for more serious work, and the Moment app. Though I do use that mainly for still photography. Since it was on sale, had to take advantage of the opportunity and grab it. Glad I did however I may not have been happy paying full price at this time. It’s great and has lots of advantages to others I mentioned and potential to contend for the top spot BUT full price may be a bit overpriced IMO right now. That said, I think it will get there if they keep pushing. I have to say I LOVE this interface! It is has down THE BEST DESIGN out there right now for Video. It may look a bit intimidating at first but you quickly fall in love with it. It’s very intuitive and gives you everything right in front of you. Also some of the unique features, like being able to lock both ISO and FPS is huge when going through your workflow to set up a shot. The functionality of the Presets and File Management is fantastic too. Another great feature is the Cinematic Stabilization mode. In the event you’re in a situation where you don’t have a gimbal this produces some nice smooth results and can really save you. The only disappointment is that I discovered when shooting in 10bit HDR, the VA (Visual Analytics) is not available. Hopefully this is a bug as I didn’t see anything about that not being there and will be fixed soon. That’s a big one for me though if you really want to take this app super serious. It was almost enough to knock it to 3.5 if I could. To make it near perfect would be the ability to shoot in a log profile so you have better flexibility in post for color correction and grading.

5/5Filmic Pro better watch out 👀
This app is a fantastic alternative to filmic pro, I would like to say that outright. I know many people may be moving over to different apps for professional camera setting on the iPhone and I have to recommend BeastCam wholeheartedly for its exceptional capabilities and reasonable price tag. It’s no surprise that this app is a strong contender along side other services like Protake, Movie Pro, or Pro Movie for an alternate pro film/photo apps. It’s capabilities are truly exceptional for its price tag, and it’s far easier to use than some of its competition. I would love to see some more options as color mapping/profiles go. A flat look or slog color profile alongside the preexisting ability to shoot in 4k 24fps ProRes would make my iPhone a true force to be reconned with. Gimbal optimization would also be a BIG plus, albeit possibly optional with the incredibly unique camera stabilization options BeastCam provides. All in all, this product is fantastic as is even without my suggestions; I truly have very little qualms with the UI or the current onboard capabilities. For the price, it seems like a no-brainer situation in comparison to some of those aforementioned options, with professional results that hold strong against the competition. And yes, it’s a one time purchase for full access to all functionality within the app making it perfect for low-no budget filmmakers who need a quick and cheap alternative app to Filmic Pro’s now weekly subscription only model. I really hope this was helpful to some frugal filmmakers trying to pick the right app for them. You really can’t go wrong with BeastCam, at least until they go subscription only too 😏

1/5Buggy App
The app came highly recommended but honestly I’m having issues that I feel people need to be aware of. I recorded a video on the app only to go back and the video was not there. I assumed maybe I forgot to click record although I was sure I did. There is a video on the app that refuses to open and allow me to see the data so I’m thinking that’s the video I recorded and it crashed somehow. Today again I recorded a video and during the recording I noticed my microphone wasn’t feeding in so I paused. As I fiddled with the screen the app then crashed and I lost that recording so that’s not great. On top of it, it refuses to allow me to download my videos to my phone saying not enough storage. My phone has over 1TB available so I’m confused. So now my edit is just stuck on the app. Maybe the app may work if you only need to take a couple minutes shots but I use mine to record long form videos so it’s clearly not made for that. I would probably give this app 0 stars if I could because right now I’ve not experienced any benefit to using it and in fact has caused me to waste time recording content I can never access

5/5Take control of your media
I’ve been using this app for over a year now. The functionality and manual control this app offers is top notch. Being able to manually control your settings will set your photos and videos apart from everyone else who use their default camera app. The only problem I have with this app is that I can’t control the mic input volume when shooting video. The option is there but it’s grayed out. It’s totally possible it’s because I’m using an old iPhone XR. One of the best parts of this app is that there is no monthly subscription! Dear developers, I hope you can keep it this way. Filmic Pro used to be my go-to until they went the subscription route.

1.12
This update comes with many new features and performance improvements! New features: - ProRAW format on iPhones 12 Pro Max and 12 Pro - New menu to switch between video and photo modes eliminates accidental switch. Now, after tapping on the camera icon you will have to select the mode to switch or close the menu - New aspect ratio guides and instant crop (video mode). The instant crop switcher is added to the aspect ratio guides sub-menu. When enabled, the video will be saved in the selected aspect ratio (1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 2.39:1, 2.76:1). Instant crop is available for HD/FHD (8-bit) at 24, 25, 30,48,50,60 FPS and QHD/4K (8-bit) at 24, 25, 30 FPS. - New expanded mode for exposure and focus reticles. Tap and hold on exposure or focus reticle to switch to expanded reading mode. The expanded reticles mode will trigger average scene reading for both exposure and focus instead of the spot reading. Exposure and focus can be locked the same way by taping on reticles. To return to spot reading mode, tap and hold on the reticle. - Zoom, Focus, and White Balance pull. Now you can set a transition timer between local preset points for Focus, Zoom, and White Balance. A new timer Icon is added above preset numbered icons that allow setting a transition timer from 0 up to 10 seconds. The timer for each of the Focus, Zoom, and White Balance settings can be set individually. Once the timer set, it will affect the transition time between set points for smooth and even pull action. Quick Zoom. Now you can choose between digital zoom and zoom preview to trigger Quick Zoom from the camera UI, in addition, zoom power can be set from 1X up to 10X (controls are added to the main settings menu). The digital zoom (Zoom) option is available at all camera settings, and it will apply actual zoom to the camera. It is extremely helpful when setting up a white balance or exposure from a specific area of the frame, also to check/set the focus. Zoom preview (Preview) option will trigger preview zoom only, and will not affect actual camera zoom, so it can be used at any time during video recording to quickly check the focus. The preview option is not available at 10-bit HDR mode (on iPhones 12 Series) also in HD/FHD at 120, 240 FPS, and 4K at 48, 50, 60 FPS. - Visual Analytics ”Auto” mode: When enabled, it will trigger Zebra Stripes when changing exposure manually and Focus Peaking, when changing focus manually. NOTE: Visual analytics are not available in 10-bit HDR mode, also in HD/FHD at 120, 240 FPS, and 4K at 48, 50, 60 FPS. - Hide interface on touch. Additional option added to keep/hide shutter release button when hide interface is enabled. - Camera orientation lock. Available in the main settings menu to lock the camera in a horizontal or vertical orientation. - Main Settings Menu. New layout with three main categories: Camera controls, User interface, and File management for easier and quicker navigation. - Global Presets Menu. Added bit depth information (8-bit or 10-bit HDR) to the info table. Now, you can load your presets even faster by double-tapping on your preset name. Rearrange your presets in the list: tap and hold on a preset name to enable the moving option, then drag your preset to a new location in the preset list to keep your favorite presets at the top. -Gallery. Added camera Icon for a quick return to camera UI from all gallery folders and player screen. Batch file conversion is available for multiple selected files or complete project folders. Since 10-bit HDR mode and HD/FHD at 120, 240 FPS, plus 4K at 48, 50, 60 FPS save videos in native 16:9 aspect ratio when recorded with anamorphic settings, batch conversion becomes really useful when multiple files needed to be converted to proper 2.39:1 or 2.76:1 aspect ratios. Improved stability. Image stabilization bugs fixed: IS state preserved when switching camera settings. IS state can be saved into global preset. If you have any feedback, please email us at [email protected]
1.14
New features + improved stability and small bug fixes. - Fixed bug in photo mode with anamorphic lens settings and HEIF image format. - New screen lock feature. Now you can lock the camera UI to avoid accidental taps on controls during recording. When enabled in the main settings menu, the new lock icon is available in the camera UI that allows locking the screen by a single tap. Only Shutter Release, Visual Analytics, Quick Zoom, and Gallery are available in the locked screen state. - New red frame during recording. Makes it easy to see when recording is in progress. - Visual Analytics, Quick Zoom, and Histogram are now available in all FPS and resolution options at 8-bit settings. - Real-time cropping to different aspect ratios is now available in all FPS and resolution options at 8-bit settings. - Updated Anamorphic hardware settings for 10-bit HDR and 8-bit at 4K 48/50/60 FPS, HD/FHD at 120/240 FPS to ensure the most consistent FPS when recording with anamorphic lenses by disabling live aspect ratio de-squeeze preview and real-time conversion. Conversion to the proper aspect ratio is available in the app gallery for each individual video file, batch conversion is available in the app gallery by selecting multiple files or complete project folder. - New gear tab in the main settings menu with great discounts on Beastgrip gear for Beastcam users :) If you have any feedback, please email us at [email protected]
1.15
- Fixed crash bug when entering the gallery. - Fixed preview distortion bug in photo mode at 1:1, 3:2, and 16:9 aspect ratios. - Added option to copy to camera roll and share videos recorded with anamorphic settings in 10-bit HDR and 8-bit at 4K 48/50/60 FPS, HD/FHD at 120/240 FPS without conversion. Now you can share original files in 16:9 aspect ratio to de-squeeze them later in the post. Conversion to proper anamorphic aspect ratio is also available in the Beastcam gallery. NOTE: in the previous version 1.14 we updated the Anamorphic hardware settings for 10-bit HDR and 8-bit at 4K 48/50/60 FPS, HD/FHD at 120/240 FPS to ensure the most consistent FPS when recording with anamorphic lenses by disabling live aspect ratio de-squeeze preview and real-time conversion. Conversion to the proper aspect ratio is available in the app gallery for each individual video file, batch conversion is available in the app gallery by selecting multiple files or complete project folder. *If you have any feedback, please email us at [email protected]

Available in the main settings menu under the “Camera controls” tab. Smart exposure mode allows controlling the exposure via a single control slider similar to the native camera app. Smart exposure mode produces cleaner results compared to the regular/default manual exposure control mode and helps to reduce the amount of noise/artifacts in shadow areas of the scene. NOTE: The individual controls for ISO and SS are not available in Smart Exposure Mode. The exposure can be adjusted by 8 stops (+/- 8) with the exposure slider. - Improved Focus Peaking visibility in QHD and 4K resolutions. - ATTENTION: We updated the File Management System for improved stability.

As I fiddled with the screen the app then crashed and I lost that recording so that’s not great. On top of it, it refuses to allow me to download my videos to my phone saying not enough storage. My phone has over 1TB available so I’m confused. So now my edit is just stuck on the app. Maybe the app may work if you only need to take a couple minutes shots but I use mine to record long form videos so it’s clearly not made for that. I would probably give this app 0 stars if I could because right now I’ve not experienced any benefit to using it and in fact has caused me to waste time recording content I can never access",

"body": "I’ve been using this app for over a year now. The functionality and manual control this app offers is top notch. Being able to manually control your settings will set your photos and videos apart from everyone else who use their default camera app. The only problem I have with this app is that I can’t control the mic input volume when shooting video. The option is there but it’s grayed out. It’s totally possible it’s because I’m using an old iPhone XR. One of the best parts of this app is that there is no monthly subscription! Dear developers, I hope you can keep it this way. Filmic Pro used to be my go-to until they went the subscription route.",

It also eliminates preview lag when “cinematic” image stabilization is enabled, similar to the native camera app. Please note: - Histogram, visual analytics, and quick zoom preview are not available at selected settings. - 1.33X and 1.55X anamorphic de-squeeze preview available at selected settings, however, the video will be saved at native 16:9 aspect ratio.

"notes": "This update comes with many new features and performance improvements! New features: - ProRAW format on iPhones 12 Pro Max and 12 Pro - New menu to switch between video and photo modes eliminates accidental switch. Now, after tapping on the camera icon you will have to select the mode to switch or close the menu - New aspect ratio guides and instant crop (video mode). The instant crop switcher is added to the aspect ratio guides sub-menu. When enabled, the video will be saved in the selected aspect ratio (1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 2.39:1, 2.76:1). Instant crop is available for HD/FHD (8-bit) at 24, 25, 30,48,50,60 FPS and QHD/4K (8-bit) at 24, 25, 30 FPS. - New expanded mode for exposure and focus reticles. Tap and hold on exposure or focus reticle to switch to expanded reading mode. The expanded reticles mode will trigger average scene reading for both exposure and focus instead of the spot reading. Exposure and focus can be locked the same way by taping on reticles. To return to spot reading mode, tap and hold on the reticle. - Zoom, Focus, and White Balance pull. Now you can set a transition timer between local preset points for Focus, Zoom, and White Balance. A new timer Icon is added above preset numbered icons that allow setting a transition timer from 0 up to 10 seconds. The timer for each of the Focus, Zoom, and White Balance settings can be set individually. Once the timer set, it will affect the transition time between set points for smooth and even pull action. Quick Zoom. Now you can choose between digital zoom and zoom preview to trigger Quick Zoom from the camera UI, in addition, zoom power can be set from 1X up to 10X (controls are added to the main settings menu). The digital zoom (Zoom) option is available at all camera settings, and it will apply actual zoom to the camera. It is extremely helpful when setting up a white balance or exposure from a specific area of the frame, also to check/set the focus. Zoom preview (Preview) option will trigger preview zoom only, and will not affect actual camera zoom, so it can be used at any time during video recording to quickly check the focus. The preview option is not available at 10-bit HDR mode (on iPhones 12 Series) also in HD/FHD at 120, 240 FPS, and 4K at 48, 50, 60 FPS. - Visual Analytics ”Auto” mode: When enabled, it will trigger Zebra Stripes when changing exposure manually and Focus Peaking, when changing focus manually. NOTE: Visual analytics are not available in 10-bit HDR mode, also in HD/FHD at 120, 240 FPS, and 4K at 48, 50, 60 FPS. - Hide interface on touch. Additional option added to keep/hide shutter release button when hide interface is enabled. - Camera orientation lock. Available in the main settings menu to lock the camera in a horizontal or vertical orientation. - Main Settings Menu. New layout with three main categories: Camera controls, User interface, and File management for easier and quicker navigation. - Global Presets Menu. Added bit depth information (8-bit or 10-bit HDR) to the info table. Now, you can load your presets even faster by double-tapping on your preset name. Rearrange your presets in the list: tap and hold on a preset name to enable the moving option, then drag your preset to a new location in the preset list to keep your favorite presets at the top. -Gallery. Added camera Icon for a quick return to camera UI from all gallery folders and player screen. Batch file conversion is available for multiple selected files or complete project folders. Since 10-bit HDR mode and HD/FHD at 120, 240 FPS, plus 4K at 48, 50, 60 FPS save videos in native 16:9 aspect ratio when recorded with anamorphic settings, batch conversion becomes really useful when multiple files needed to be converted to proper 2.39:1 or 2.76:1 aspect ratios. Improved stability. Image stabilization bugs fixed: IS state preserved when switching camera settings. IS state can be saved into global preset.

Available up to 4K 60 FPS. - Stitch Recorded Footage. Available in the main settings menu under the “File management” tab. The “Stitch Recorded Footage” option allows pausing/resuming the recording process and saving a final video in a single file. A single tap on the record button pauses/resumes the recording process. A long tap on the record button stops the recording process. NOTE: The “Stitch Recorded Footage” option is not available in 10 bit HDR - Smart Exposure Mode. Available in the main settings menu under the “Camera controls” tab. Smart exposure mode allows controlling the exposure via a single control slider similar to the native camera app. Smart exposure mode produces cleaner results compared to the regular/default manual exposure control mode and helps to reduce the amount of noise/artifacts in shadow areas of the scene. NOTE: The individual controls for ISO and SS are not available in Smart Exposure Mode. The exposure can be adjusted by 8 stops (+/- 8) with the exposure slider. - Improved Focus Peaking visibility in QHD and 4K resolutions. - ATTENTION: We updated the File Management System for improved stability. If you experienced crashes in the gallery and/or if you have existing project folders, we strongly recommend copying all files to your computer, then deleting the app and doing a fresh install to ensure the most optimal performance.
