Macotakara: M2-iPad Pro Default Camera App Does Not Support ProRes Format – Tablets & Phones – News

Of native The camera app of the Apple iPad Pro with a SOC M2 does not include an option to record in the ProRes video compression format, therefore Macotakara writes. It would require a third-party app to record video in Apple’s codec.

Apple reported to the announcement of new generations of iPad Pro that for the first time, users can record ProRes video so that “content creators can now record, edit and publish cinema-quality videos with a single device.” For now, the new 12.9 “and 11” models of the sixth and fourth generation iPad Pro, respectively, do not support the default video compression format, according to Japanese Macotakara.

The medium managed to record video in the format using a third-party app, FiLMiC Pro. It is unclear whether this is a bug in the default camera app or whether Apple has deliberately omitted the option.

ProRes is a video format developed by Apple in which from iOS 15.1 it can be recorded by default on an equivalent iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 13 Pro Max or newer iPhone 14. However, a variety of Apple devices can change the file format with native Apple applications such as iMovie and Final Cut Pro. The first generation 11 “iPad Pro, fifth generation iPad Air and third generation 12.9” iPad Pro can process ProRes. The new M2 iPad Pro would be the first iPads to actually be included in the codec for high image quality.
