Device to transform the iPhone 17 Pro into a professional filmmaking tool, adding advanced connections like Time Code, Genlock and SSD recording
The Blackmagic Camera ProDock is an innovative device designed to transform the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max into a true professional production video camera.
Compatible with the Blackmagic Camera App, this dock lets you add advanced connections to your phone, including external Time Code, Genlock, professional quality audio, SSD recording, and more, making your iPhone a powerful and versatile tool for mid- to high-end production environments.
With HDMI, USB-C, BNC, and 3.5 mm jack connections, you can integrate your iPhone with industry-standard equipment like Time Code generators, lens control accessories, and on-set monitors. The ProDock also supports advanced features like ProRes RAW and Genlock, which are essential for multi-camera and virtual productions. This prevents issues like flickering on LED walls and makes editing with DaVinci Resolve easier.
The design includes three USB-C ports for accessories and high-speed SSDs, a power management system that allows all connected devices to be powered simultaneously, and a standard HDMI output for real-time monitoring on an external monitor. The user interface, inspired by Blackmagic digital video cameras, allows you to adjust settings like frame rate, ISO, and white balance with a single touch, and you can record directly to the Blackmagic Cloud in standard formats up to 4K.
ProDock is an elegant and powerful solution for those who want to take full advantage of the iPhone's video capabilities in professional settings.
