"It's a purpose-built hub designed to solve every major problem that has kept the iPhone from being a primary camera on a serious film set. For years, filmmakers have used iPhones for B-roll or in tight spots where a larger camera wouldn't fit, but integrating them into a professional workflow has always been a collection of compromises and clunky workarounds."
"Amidst the sea of polished metal and Ceramic Shield panels, however, something unusual happened. Apple gave the spotlight to a product that wasn't their own. For a few crucial moments, the focus shifted to a small, unassuming black box from Blackmagic Design, a company beloved by video professionals. This device, the Camera ProDock, was the only non-Apple product to get a showcase at the keynote,"
Apple's September keynote introduced the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, A19 Pro chip details, and a slim iPhone Air. The Camera ProDock from Blackmagic Design received a rare non-Apple showcase and signals a push toward using iPhones as primary cinema cameras. The ProDock is a rugged, mountable hub that adds standard cinema connections—power, external microphones, headphones, on-set monitors, and solid-state drives—enabling seamless integration into professional rigs. The iPhone 17 Pro supports genlock and external timecode, features the ProDock can leverage for multi-camera productions.
