Apple Updates Final Cut Pro for iPad and Final Cut Camera

[MacRumors]

Apple today updated both Final Cut Pro for iPad and Final Cut Camera, introducing a handful of useful new features that improve video editing and recording on Apple's mobile devices.

Final Cut Pro for iPad gains support for editing video in portrait orientation, and it includes new keyboard shortcuts. There's also Image Playground integration, and an option to capture video in 50fps.

- Expand your editing workflows with support for portrait orientation on your iPad.
- Speed up your editing with keyboard shortcuts to nudge a selection, replace with gap, and lift or overwrite to the primary storyline.
- Get inspired with Image Playground and use Apple Intelligence to quickly create stylized images based on a description, suggested concepts, or people from your Photos library. (Requires iPad with A17 Pro or M1 and later and iPadOS 18.2 or later.)
- Capture in 50 fps for additional editing flexibility and delivery options.

The updated version of Final Cut Camera includes support for quickly swapping over to the Telephoto lens on the iPhone 14 Pro and later, recording in Spatial Audio on the iPhone 16 and later, and recording in 50fps video.

- Quickly switch to the 48 mm telephoto lens to capture the perfect shot. (Requires iPhone 14 Pro or later.)
- Play back your Log videos in SDR or HDR with the vibrancy of the original scene by applying the Apple Log LUT. (Requires iPhone 15 Pro or later.)
- Record videos in Spatial Audio for even more realistic and immersive sound. (Requires iPhone 16.)
- Capture in 50 fps for additional editing flexibility and delivery options.

Final Cut Camera is software that is designed to let users record from up to four devices with footage imported into Final Cut Pro for iPad.

Final Cut Pro for iPad is available for $49 per year or $4.99 per month, while Final Cut Camera is free.

Awesome! I use Final Cut Pro occasionally on my iPad Pro so I’m glad that it’s been updated with more features

Final Cut Pro is now even compatible on the new $349 iPad:

Final Cut Studio use to be so great. Version X really destroyed the momentum.
They are not using their own software for Severance. Check out these old Demo Reels..

I visited my local Apple Store yesterday to enquire about training courses for Final Cut Pro on the Mac. Sadly they no longer provide this training.

I remember when the retail stores first opened and they had purpose built rooms for all sorts of training and presentations. It’s a shame that has all gone now.

Captioning remains unsupported in Final Cut Pro for iPad, eh? 😒

I think everyone will love to use portrait mode for Final Cut Pro ! People will be so happy that they will also use their MacBook on portrait mode (yeah you can)

Would be great if Final Cut for iPad could, you know, render in the background...

It sucks that it has IAP. I would just keep using the macOS version

YouTube has some, also Udemy.
And there are free books released by Apple in the Books App.
Should be enough to get you started.

If you still can’t batch edit the length of still images within a timeline, then it’s still completely useless for me. Talk about a basic function.

If your using FCP in Stage-Manager as a window, it "renders in the background".

I admit I did not know that! I never use Stage Manager. But it's something, I guess.

Wish Final Cut Camera would work with the Apple Watch. I use it quite a bit to see what I'm filming real time...

Like while doing other things? I do this all the time. Works great.

I don't like that these updates kill project compatibility with old projects. Every once in while the update will force you to update your project. And then it will be incompatible with your older version of FCP. The one that is working fine on old machine, but can't be updated due to OS being too old.
