Final Cut Camera Version 2.4 has been released, and it adds a lot of new features and functionality. It features a new design layout with easy-to-access settings, customizable overlays, two-finger tap to put focus on the viewfinder, and a tally light to indicate recording.
The new version is available as a free software update.
Redesigned from the ground up, Final Cut Camera provides easier access to popular settings like shutter angle, ISO, and white balance, along with customizable overlays, including false color and clipping indicators for proper exposure, and improved focus peaking with sensitivity control. A new tally light indicates when recording is underway, and a two-finger tap now clears the viewfinder.
With iPhone 18 Pro, users can take advantage of the new Fusion Main camera with variable aperture that allows users to precisely dial in their aperture settings, or choose between shutter priority and aperture priority modes. The update also unlocks Cinematic mode effects for regular video, including footage captured in ProRes and Apple Log.
With iOS 27, Final Cut Camera adds support for professional video scopes, clean SDI out, and genlock offset. With clean SDI out, users can send a clean video signal using an HDMI-to-SDI converter. With genlock offset, users can compensate for image artifacts from a recorded display or for latency differences between their iPhone and other genlocked cameras.
