ProRes Video Recording on M2 iPad Pro Requires Third-Party Apps, Not Supported in Native Camera App

It's nothing like that is it?

The correct comparison would be, Apple has a game that would benefit from hardway ray tracing that comes pre loaded on every iOS device, then they release and new SOC that supports hardware ray tracing but doesn't add support to the pre loaded game.

And it's a game which supports gyroscopes making it tedious to use it with such a large device.

You just buy another game. There are many of them. And it let's you support developers.
 
What a freaking joke, passing it off to 3rd party apps. #couldntbebotheredisuppose 🫠

those that have shot on large format plate cameras know how nice the larger ‘viewfinder’ is! #ipadphotography 🤩
 
I would really like to know what people are part of this process and if they are the work from home super productivity folks. Seems like someone was watching Netflix instead of doing the final QC round. The lack of employee cohesiveness is really showing.

Queue the Apple employee wfh defense brigade in 3,2....

What's dumb is expecting Apple to provide default applications which take advantage of advanced features.

Let's say Apple adds real-time hardware ray tracing support to the SoC. This is a feature which is most useful in games. Should they really have to provide a default game with this feature?

Buying a third-party applications lets you support developers too!

But the iPhone supports ProRes natively sooooo
 
The iPad Pro camera system feels like it’s stuck at the iPhone XS quality level. Maybe that’s the reason.

I take a picture with my iPad Pro M1 and iPhone 13 Pro indoors with very good natural lighting flowing in the windows and the iPad photo is grainy and has poor detail. Night and day difference. Why would we want ProRes with such a mediocre camera system?

Wait, but it is supported on the iPhone Pro's native camera app? This makes zero sense.

It makes perfect sense if it’s just a bug that will be fixed in the next update. Legally they wouldn’t market a feature that requires a third party app.

That's a bold assumption. And even if no one used it, advertising a feature while not supporting it in the native app in such a closed operating system is not acceptable.

I vaguely recall seeing various ios games in apple ads ... AND YET I HAVE TO *PAY* FOR THE GAMES???? Why aren't all those games included with base iOS?

So if you get ProRes on ur iPad ... are you going to shoot videos and then spend a couple hours editing and grading your footage in post to take advantage of ProRes? Or are you just going to upload to social right away, assuming social don't straight-out choke on prores immediately?
