SkiCamera is the ultimate filming companion for ski enthusiasts who want professional-looking footage without the hassle of manual zoom adjustments. Filming a friend flying down the mountain used to mean constantly fiddling with your zoom — too close, too far, always a beat behind. SkiCamera changes that. Our AI continuously tracks the skier on screen, detects how far away they are, and smoothly adjusts the zoom in real time so they always appear the same size in frame. The result? Cinematic, consistent video from first turn to final stop. How it works Point your phone at the skier, hit record, and let SkiCamera do the rest. The AI locks onto the skier and dynamically controls zoom as they approach or move further away — no tapping, no manual adjustments, no missed moments. Built for the mountain SkiCamera works the way you do on the slopes. Use the touchscreen as normal, or switch entirely to physical button controls on those cold days when you'd rather keep your gloves on. Launch recording instantly with your iPhone's Action Button, Just point, press, and capture. Why SkiCamera • AI-powered auto-zoom keeps your subject perfectly framed at all times • Smooth, cinematic zoom transitions — no jarring jumps • Launch instantly via iPhone Action Button • Fully operable with ski gloves — all controls mapped to physical buttons • Designed specifically for ski conditions and fast-moving subjects Stop wrestling with your zoom and start capturing the mountain the way it deserves to be seen.
