I have been using it for a little while and it’s surprisingly responsive. I also bought a iPad Pro instead of a laptop. It’s a very powerful little machine. Thanks for the insights, I’m new to video editing I’d love to see you guys do more tutorials on workflow. Thanks!
Fantastic program. One thing I wish LumaFusion had is information for each button as you hover over, that way if you are new to the program you can navigate easier. I haven’t used my MacBook Pro since I got my iPad Pro.
I will talk to Nino for that - thanks. In the next days I will test more footage with an ipad edit. Small client clips are now done with Lumafusion. I have made some already.
It's all changed. I started using an iPad as a laptop replacement over 5 years ago. It was far more difficult back then and has come such a long way. Been using LF for over a year as my only editor.
Do you have new ipad pro? Is it worth to buy it with 16 gb ram? Can it handle heavy 4k60 long videos like two hours long videos with no lag or macbook need it?
This is going to shock some folks but I am editing 3k video with layers on an iPad 4 Mini and not having any issues with it. Really amazing software is LumaFusion and the 2.0 version out now is amazing as well.
Adding on to what Doc Rock said, if you are using a Sony A series, you can not import files over 4.3 GB directly. It is a limitation of the MTP protocol. You will need to use an external drive like the one he is using in the video. Besides that limitation the iPad Pro/Sony A7III combination is pretty awesome.
GRT to hear/see guys! I just purchased LumaFusion and I know you’re stoked about new iOS iPad updates #NEXTLEVEL that among many amazing improvements include the external files imports etc that weren’t possible when this awesome vid was first made 🙌🏻⚡️💪🏻💥👏🏻
Well, I think your prayers have been answered with iOS 13 and iPad iOS I ditched my MacBook Pro for the iPad Pro perfectly fits my workflow, it’s a great alternative to a heavy MacBook. iPad OS has lifted the bar now A lot of people have been waiting for such an upgrade, and it’s only the first version of the OS.
Jorge Corona i have an a7ii and i use a USB C to camera connector then USB to micro to the camera while its on MTP mode. From there i import into camera roll, then import into Lumafusion. Haven’t tried USB C to Micro, but i feel like it wouldn’t know what to do with it
@@shyamtailor6185 I see your camera is using USB 3.1 so the transfer speed is fast. The A6400 is using USB 2.0 so I'll need to look for another solution. Thanks.
Luna Fusion is a fantastic app., though you don’t need an iPad Pro. It works just as well on a regular iPad or an iPhone (though a larger screen makes it more useable).
Wouldn't it be so much easier to use complete software a touchpad and hard drives, wait why did he ditch his MacBook? For h265 that can't play on most devices
This was a fun quick review - thanks Nino. So much more to tell but this would eat up much more time. The goal is to deliver content as fast a possible when needed but I will not change my main edits from Premiere to the iPad. RUSH from Adobe was a „no go“ for now as all main tools are still missing. But this will be an interesting solution, if Adobe is willing to give us more pro tools. We will see
Good afternoon, help please understand this. When you select a file on a wireless WD disk in a preview in Luma Fusion and select a part of the video that will be needed to edit the file from the wireless WD disk is copied to the iPad in full size or is only the selected part? Can you look in the Luma Fusion folder where media files are stored in the User Media folder? In the Luma Fusion folder on your iPad are files with the original size or cropped? Thank!
I just purchased the Lacie DJI Copilot BOSS with the latest firmware and it allows you to plug directly into the iPad Pro 2018 USB-C port And access and transfer files. Including 4K 60P video.
that sounds interesting but I heard of some troubles with the drive. A rumor says that they will come out soon with a new drive. Didn´t get my hands on it yet. I saw a video with a workaround. Apple needs to read a special folder structure and filenames with 8 digits. So I guess it could be solved with software - maybe an app like they already exist, but this time reaction to the usb-c Port. This would help a lot as you do not need a heavy battery in the drive. Just a small one to support the power needs of the drive when working.
Excellent video! I have the first generation iPad Pro and even after two years, is incredibly powerful. It's my daily driver. As a photographer, I'm happy that Adobe Lightroom on the iPad is finally becoming a real useful tool. Its taken a while but they're doing a good job on it. If you have lots of files to edit, doing it on a laptop is still better. But if you just have a few, the iPad can totally do it.
Amazing!!! Best video really, truly, showing what can be accomplished. Love to see just how fast someone could create a video while at a convention or event and get up or shared to public or clients.
Claude Sadik I’ve been using LumaFusion on my iPad since October. I have a 512gb iPad so I don’t need an external to work from as none of my projects have needed more than that. The newer iPads have 1TB of storage. Just out of curiosity, what kind of projects do you do that requires more that 1TB?
You can now, i just purchased the Lacie DJI Copilot BOSS and it works after installing the latest firmware. I’m finally able to access my 4k 60p files on my ipad pro 2018.
So far all my video editing is being done on my iPhone xs, and its been fantastic i can’t imagine how much better its going to be when i can get an iPad pro.
Nice overview. Agree with other comments that LumaFusion is an amazing piece of software. One correction: when retrieving clips from the WD MyPassport Pro, the entire file must be downloaded to the iPad. Gnarbox, on the other hand, downloads ONLY the selected portion of the file! I have the MyPassport and it works fine, albeit slowly. I’ve ordered the Gnarbox 2.0.
Lacie Dji Boss hard drive is compatible with iPad, you can transfer your footage from your sd cards directly to the drive without a computer, and it's way faster than transferring through the dongle.
Nice video Mr. Hoffman, are you working with a 12.9" iPad Pro? Very powerful, I am going to update mine. I would like to know what kind of bag are you using for it. Waiting for some tutorials. Thank you.
Great video--dealing with storage and export issues and giving a an inside view of a Luma project with many specifics (video layers, ausio layers, graphics). I'm super impressed. Thanks
I don't get it either, even now in Nov 2020, I was excited and installed photoshop, I wanted to add a layer effect.. missing, ok, a filter? no filter menu. It's completely unusable!
Fantastic video. You both have such a great approach to message delivery, the video is very easy to watch! THANK YOU for sharing this info. I just converted to the Ipad Pro and will try the wireless drive approach!
Good video, been thinking about getting this app, I know you can add text to a video and and move it around and stuff, but instead of text can you add like a pic over the video?
I would switch if it could edit ProRes files from the BMPCC4K. Do you know of any ways I can edit or transcode ProRes files to edit on LumaFusion or any other app on the Ipad?
Thanks for this. I’m struggling with iMovie now as it becomes extremely slow once i introduce 2 long videos into the timeline. Does LumaFusion handle multiple layers well and without having to wait for it to load? Many thanks for the answer.
Love the video guys. I bought the WD wireless drive for use for my editing in Fusion but when streaming to my iPad the footage lags / freezes. Any ideas why? The footage is from a GoPro.
Video question for anyone that knows the answer. Both are you guys are wearing mics , what is the best way to blend both your guys voices. Is this done in post or using a device like zoom h5...
- This was a good video, but you should consider updating it now. Version 2.1 of LumaFusion is available now adding blending modes, frame.io integration (pay component), tight integration with gearbox 2.0, Affinity Photo (you can make your own LUTS), Affinity Designer (to creat logos, lower thirds, bugs< etc), and toss in the RODE Go microphone and things for Mobile ending jumped an order of magnitude.
My wife and i are looking to get an ipad pro for youtube video editing. We are using an iPhone to take video for now, and we will probably be using iCloud at first to store and share raw video files. What size HD on the iPad Pro do you recommending getting? the videos will be between 3 and 6 mins long. probably on the shorter side.
Using a WiFi hard drive is much slower compared to USB 3 connection (like the WD here which uses Samba for file transfer which is utterly slow in iOS). Furthermore, all the clips have to be uploaded to the editing device itself, just as mentioned here. If you have multiple projects going on at the same time it fills up the storage space pretty fast. Also, you cannot render a video in LumaFusion first and upload it at a later point (at least last time I checked it), nor you can render/upload videos on the background. In my opinion LumaFusion & iPad combo works mainly for short videos when you have access to a reasonable fast internet connection. As good as it is bearing mind those limitations (and many others such as not able to do exact audio track syncing, not to speak of more demanding editing tasks like stabilisation or professional level color correction) it definitely is not a replacement for a fully featured video editing software such as Premiere and powerful laptop / desktop computer.
I'm also waiting for the LumaFusion upgrade that brings export XML functionality: it's coming... but they've been promising this for months! The first version will export to FCPX as I understand it, which is what I use for editing. That will be a fantastic combination when it comes.
It's not quite there, but in a few years it may be able to replace a Mac. Lumafusion needs automatic audio syncing and multicam like Premiere Pro. The iPad Pro needs to support external drives and have a better internal file system. I'd say it's about 80% there though.
Everyone who watched this video are interested in the option of editing on an iPad instead of a laptop. And I have to say that it is promise, but at certain point. Because only works for light editing at the moment, and without a proper OS always being problems with codecs or files, and the lack of connectivity is a major problem for any real mobile workstation. And what about the longevity of the system, I personally argue that iPads don’t last long enough compared with an apple laptop. And this package cost much more than a MacBook 12”or 13” , that are very portable and have enough power for this kind of editing and more. Only the lack of touch interface that it’s the real hype here. But it’s you have a lot of gigs, probably it’s easy to consider this kind of workflow at this price range.
my ipad is a 64gb would it be better if i upgrade it to the 256gb one? i've just started making some videos recenctly, just 5-15min long vids. dont really take 4k vids too
Is this app performance like on mac or in ipad is so weak and have lag on long videos? Is it worth to buy 16 gb ram new ipad pro for editing heavy long videos or 8 is enough or totally mac is better by far on editing 4k60 long 2 hour videos or new ipad pro can do it too with 8 gb ram without any lag?
good choice - I filmed myself making an Cappuchino with a small stand and my iphone in about 6min. The edit would need about 20min without search for music. All files are already transfered with icloud to my ipad when I came back to my office in the next room. Fantastic
Even better, with AirDrop, you can transfer the rush directly from the phone to the iPad :) No need of any internet connection, it's a device-to-device transfer, works even in the middle of the desert ^__^
It is baffling that i think i have been subscribing to you guys for ages ago, but only to realize that i was unsubscribed. Luckily i was searching for a Luma Fusion tutorial and this video came up close to the top for me. Please do a detail tutorial for Luma Fusion soon as i am going for a mobile film/video making setup and use my PC primarily for gaming.
You are right Allan BUT I would not like to work again with the old-style UI from Premiere on the small MBP. I sold my MBP 15 inch and I can work with better organized software on the ipad. Premiere hast so many place-killing elements - it is a mess. I edit in Premiere on my iMac. Try it out. It is a total different workstyle. I love it.
Allan Sh Looks like I need to upgrade my late 2015 iMac for my new XT-3... would the newest iMacs handle 4K60P XT-3 HEVC footage or do I need the newest MacBook Pro?
@@smallbizdigitalmedia The lasted iMac is 2 yo at this point. And it really struggled with HEVC. It might do better in Mojave, but I am not sure. I sold my iMac 5K last summer and replaced with a 13 inch MacBook Pro + eGPU. The 13 inch can playback 4K60P HEVC with very little CPU usage, but once you add any color layers, it starts to struggle(that's why I use eGPU). A 15 inch would do it nicely without eGPU. You might also want to check out iMac Pro. It doesn't have hardware acceleration for HEVC, but it can decode with brute force. However, iMac Pro is too expensive, and worse, it will be replaced by much better display and computer very soon. For me, I am holding on to my current setup until Apple's Pro 6K(likely HDR) + new Mac Pro come out. You have another option. You can buy a Atomos Ninja V in order to record ProRes. But be ware of the choice and the cost of SSDs.
I want to shoot a 4:30 mins short film on a Nikon d5600 in 1080p on a flat picture profile. I'm going to edit and colour it myself. Can the iPad pro handle that?
I am really far behind on the hardware. My goto machines are an ancient HP Laptop and I edit with the old Sony Movie Maker Suite. I also have an old iPad Air 2 and LumaFusion actually runs on that very well. It is amazing I can run software like this on a tablet this old and slow. If anyone out there needs to hire me I really need a job. Love this stuff.
I don’t think that’s gonna happen. It’s the same reason Adobe’s Rush is so limited. They’d cannibalize desktop Premier if Rush was any good on iOS. Lumafusion is iOS only. They can afford to really push the features of their app to make it a very capable, useable iOS app.
I wanted to shoot our videos in 4k but my mac was struggling. It was not nearly powerful enough. I picked up an iPad Pro 12.9 and Lumafusion saved the day
hi just a suggestion. is it possible if you could let us know the stuffs(gadgets) that we need to get so we will have the best video editing experience. thank u.
There’s a way to get the Sony files to work. It has something to do with how the files are written to the card which can be changed in the menu system. I saw someplace I’m sorry I don’t remember where.
you are right - I saw that last week. Just use the usb cable from your ipad and transfer the pics and movie files. But you will shortly run out of space. Therefore you need to export your finalized job, which is no problem in Lumafusion. Thanks for your note.
Surface Book 2 would meet the performance requirement for 4K. For quick editing, I'd use Adobe Rush to set up the sequence and fine tune it in Premiere later if needed.
Lol the surface barely does 4k..but it isn’t the hardwares fault at all. Premier needs real beefy specs to run and edit decent 4K...my pc is i5 8400 and a GeForce 1060...and it stutters on 4k.... my iPad Pro doesn’t...crazy.
Could anyone tell me if the audio can be turned off or deleted from a clip and the clip saved without audio?? Apologies in advance if this is a silly question, novice enquiring...

iPad OS has lifted the bar
now
A lot of people have been waiting for such an upgrade, and it’s only the first version of the OS.
There have been improvements since your video was published. I'm planning to get iPad and Lumafusion for on-the-go editing.
The iPad Pro can pull files directly from Sony Cameras. Set MTP on and turn off USB Power option in the camera Menu. Tested on A7III and A6400 🤙🏾
Interesting. So you an connect your iPad Pro with USB C to Micro USB cable to your A6400 and import video files to Lumafusion?
Jorge Corona i have an a7ii and i use a USB C to camera connector then USB to micro to the camera while its on MTP mode. From there i import into camera roll, then import into Lumafusion. Haven’t tried USB C to Micro, but i feel like it wouldn’t know what to do with it
I second that, it works just fine.

Hes's gonna be more into it once iPadOS releases
Excellent video! I have the first generation iPad Pro and even after two years, is incredibly powerful. It's my daily driver.

If you have lots of files to edit, doing it on a laptop is still better. But if you just have a few, the iPad can totally do it.
Ricardo Gomez do you use an external hard drive and how many gigs is your iPad Pro
Try affinity photo,right now is better than Lightroom.
I just learned something new. I didn’t know about the ducking/master feature. Thanks!
Amazing!!! Best video really, truly, showing what can be accomplished. Love to see just how fast someone could create a video while at a convention or event and get up or shared to public or clients.

Why people are so hyped about photoshop on iPad when we got Affinity photo and designer.
Amir Aria Matin affinity is the bomb
Affinity is good but is missing a lot of photoshop features unfortunately. Content aware is really far off for example.
Zoran Zaric exactly the same for Photoshop
I like affinity and it's all functions i use
I don't get it either, even now in Nov 2020, I was excited and installed photoshop, I wanted to add a layer effect.. missing, ok, a filter? no filter menu. It's completely unusable!
Excellent in using the power of iPad
LumaFusion is indeed a game changer software. Hopefully the next iOS will support external file management, and then iPad will be a killer gadget!

Even better, with AirDrop, you can transfer the rush directly from the phone to the iPad :) No need of any internet connection, it's a device-to-device transfer, works even in the middle of the desert ^__^
Detailed! Thank you po
Brilliant video. Thank you
So I have an iPad pro with lumafusion I've been using for awhile, should I upgrade and goto final cut?
Apple does provide a file system with the new iOS 13. Would be interesting to see this new work flow with the new IOS
If you keep this detail & conversation up in the videos for iPad, WD passport, and portable gear to do this I will subscribe.
Just buying it now - please sort that tutorial asap
It is baffling that i think i have been subscribing to you guys for ages ago, but only to realize that i was unsubscribed. Luckily i was searching for a Luma Fusion tutorial and this video came up close to the top for me. Please do a detail tutorial for Luma Fusion soon as i am going for a mobile film/video making setup and use my PC primarily for gaming.
My 13 inch MacBook Pro handles 4K60P XT-3 footage just fine.
HEVC is a new standard and it requires Intel 8th gen or newer.
You are right Allan BUT I would not like to work again with the old-style UI from Premiere on the small MBP. I sold my MBP 15 inch and I can work with better organized software on the ipad. Premiere hast so many place-killing elements - it is a mess. I edit in Premiere on my iMac. Try it out. It is a total different workstyle. I love it.

Can LumaFusion export 10 bit HEVC HDR(bt.2020 color space)?
Allan Sh Looks like I need to upgrade my late 2015 iMac for my new XT-3... would the newest iMacs handle 4K60P XT-3 HEVC footage or do I need the newest MacBook Pro?
@@smallbizdigitalmedia
The lasted iMac is 2 yo at this point. And it really struggled with HEVC. It might do better in Mojave, but I am not sure. I sold my iMac 5K last summer and replaced with a 13 inch MacBook Pro + eGPU. The 13 inch can playback 4K60P HEVC with very little CPU usage, but once you add any color layers, it starts to struggle(that's why I use eGPU). A 15 inch would do it nicely without eGPU. You might also want to check out iMac Pro. It doesn't have hardware acceleration for HEVC, but it can decode with brute force. However, iMac Pro is too expensive, and worse, it will be replaced by much better display and computer very soon. For me, I am holding on to my current setup until Apple's Pro 6K(likely HDR) + new Mac Pro come out.
You have another option. You can buy a Atomos Ninja V in order to record ProRes. But be ware of the choice and the cost of SSDs.
Allan Sh great info thanks
I want to shoot a 4:30 mins short film on a Nikon d5600 in 1080p on a flat picture profile. I'm going to edit and colour it myself. Can the iPad pro handle that?
That iPad can handle 4K H265 and you are asking if it can handle 1080p vido wich is from 2010...
This video is really helps me a lot
We need an updated video now don't you think?
you could also attach an external monitor to have a larger display.
I am really far behind on the hardware. My goto machines are an ancient HP Laptop and I edit with the old Sony Movie Maker Suite.
I also have an old iPad Air 2 and LumaFusion actually runs on that very well. It is amazing I can run software like this on a tablet this old and slow.
If anyone out there needs to hire me I really need a job. Love this stuff.
Very creative
Great informative video thanks 🙏🏻
So they still not allow external HD with iPhone iPad I know you can use SSD. But you can’t use external HD? Or is that changed now
Apple needs to develop a final cut version for the ipad pro, they are loosing money to luma fusion.
Who know,s apple might just buy luma fusion? Could happen, they got tons of $$ haha
I don’t think that’s gonna happen. It’s the same reason Adobe’s Rush is so limited. They’d cannibalize desktop Premier if Rush was any good on iOS.
Lumafusion is iOS only. They can afford to really push the features of their app to make it a very capable, useable iOS app.
I have thé iPad Pro 2017 and with Luma Fusion, the editing is really fast
Could you show the way to the tutorial of LumaFusion , the workflow specifically. Thanks for this video.
very valuable video, thank-you!
I wanted to shoot our videos in 4k but my mac was struggling. It was not nearly powerful enough. I picked up an iPad Pro 12.9 and Lumafusion saved the day
How does he monitor audio? Does he use headphones? If so, how does he connect it to the iPad Pro?
Love this. Sounds duck is awesome. I use it in screenflow too
hi just a suggestion. is it possible if you could let us know the stuffs(gadgets) that we need to get so we will have the best video editing experience.
thank u.
Nice video Pedro!!
Very useful video...
There’s a way to get the Sony files to work. It has something to do with how the files are written to the card which can be changed in the menu system. I saw someplace I’m sorry I don’t remember where.
Are you using 11 or 12.9? What memory size would you suggest for GoPro video editing?
256GB shoud be more than enough. Better to use 12.9 IMO.
Luma Fusion Rocks....
is CC coming to ios in 2019?
is color correction possible with Lumafusion?
You can copy direct from Sony cameras by connecting them direct to iPad. Change to MTP mode on camera.
you are right - I saw that last week. Just use the usb cable from your ipad and transfer the pics and movie files. But you will shortly run out of space. Therefore you need to export your finalized job, which is no problem in Lumafusion. Thanks for your note.
with Fuji cameras you dont need any hard disk, you can use the simple sd adpater
But why does Gary Oldman edit ?
God damn these comments, 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahahaha.
so if i am understanding what youre saying the ipad pro has more processing power to edit videos then your intel based macbook?
I guess if apple ecosystem isn't a requirement ..using a MS surface + premiere would be a far easier option. Or is it slower to edit?
Surface Book 2 would meet the performance requirement for 4K. For quick editing, I'd use Adobe Rush to set up the sequence and fine tune it in Premiere later if needed.
Lol the surface barely does 4k..but it isn’t the hardwares fault at all. Premier needs real beefy specs to run and edit decent 4K...my pc is i5 8400 and a GeForce 1060...and it stutters on 4k.... my iPad Pro doesn’t...crazy.
I'm ready for the tutorial from that guy!!!
Could anyone tell me if the audio can be turned off or deleted from a clip and the clip saved without audio?? Apologies in advance if this is a silly question, novice enquiring...
