The actual "cinematic mode" for editing with the new Final Cut Pro + MacBook Pro

Smartphone videos are also entering the era of "blurring"

"Cinematic mode" was supported by the iPhone 13 series released on September 24th. There have already been a lot of reviews, but it's safe to assume that the depth of field expression, which was previously only a photo on the iPhone, has been brought into the video.

It has many features such as automatic focus tracking at the time of shooting and the ability to change the focus point even after shooting, which is a sufficient function to breathe new life into video content, but you can actually use those clips to create some content. When it comes to making, there is a limit to making it with iMovie on the iPhone.

Support for professional tools has been awaited, but with the announcement of Apple MacBook Pro on October 19, Apple's genuine editing tool Final Cut Pro has been updated to support clip editing in cinematic mode. ..

In addition, the XDR display of the new MacBook Pro also supports HDR display, so you can check the editing of clips shot in HDR in the actual brightness and color space. This time, I was able to borrow a 16-inch MacBook Pro with M1 Pro from Apple.

The new MacBook Pro has already been reviewed a week after its release, but benchmark tests alone are not enough to tell the actual performance. This time, I would like to test what kind of performance it will be if you really do video production with the combination of shooting with iPhone 13 Pro Max, 16-inch MacBook Pro, Final Cut Pro 10.6.
