Excellent

I use my BMCC4K to shoot overhead demos and got this app after climbing up and down a step stool a million times. Hard to overstate how well this app works. Interface is intuitive and responsive. Love it!

Focus control Support for BMCC6k and nucleus nano ll

I am a user of your app and recently purchased the Pro Features to use with my setup.
Currently, I am using the Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K (Full Frame) with the Tilta Nucleus Nano II. After connecting the controller through the app, I found that only the Start/Stop (Record) function works, while the Focus Control does not respond.
I noticed in the app description that focus pulling is specifically mentioned for the Pocket 4K. I would greatly appreciate it if you could update the app to support focus control for the BMCC 6K and Nucleus Nano II as well.
Since the Nano II is becoming the new standard for many Blackmagic users, adding this compatibility would be incredibly beneficial.
Thank you for your time and for developing this app. I look forward to your response.

Was Great, But Out of Date Now

This app was great for years. But it hasn’t been updated in years and doesn’t include proper support for the latest Blackmagic Cameras like the URSA Cine or PYXIS models. This is especially problematic for the 12K and 17K sensor versions of those camera systems.

removal of features

loved and used this app a lot several years ago. updated it and went to use it for a project i’m working on currently only to find that the monitor function i used to use a great deal has been axed/paywalled. scummy move. terrible look.

Disappointing

Cameras routinely disconnect even when my phone is within a foot. The range (when working) also leaves a lot to be desired. Pocket Cinema 6K routinely lose connection around 20-30 feet from my phone. G1s and G2s fair only slightly better with a range of ~40 feet. Don’t waste your money on this app.
