iPhone 18 Pro variable aperture lens just added to Apple's Final Cut Camera — here's how it works
Apple just released updates for Final Cut Camera that make editing and shooting much better.
Apple has released an update to Final Cut Camera for iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max models, adding support for its new variable aperture lens. Final Cut Camera is an iOS app that offers professional-level video recording and shooting features beyond those available in the standard Camera app. The update includes a streamlined user interface, customizable overlays for exposure, ISO, white balance, and a tally light indicator for recording.
Users can now access additional settings like shutter angle, frame rate, color modes, and encoding formats. The Variable Aperture lens enables users to adjust aperture, shutter priority, and aperture priority modes. For editing, version 2.4 supports Cinematic mode effects, allowing users to refine focus points and depth of field while editing in Final Cut Pro.
Additionally, iOS 27 will introduce professional video scopes, clean SDI output, and genlock offset support.
