Hello sir. Can you help please. When I click on that option log cenimatic looks. It's said 7.1mb download but when I press nothing happened. Please help me
Great review. On first take, the video quality looks superior to that of filmic pro plus their focus and iso pull is more easily accessible on screen without obstructing into the record menu area. The down side is the subscription and lack of support.
Thanks so much! Yes I thought the image looked much nicer but I couldn’t quite tell why. The lack of support is the main reason I am unlikely to subscribe past the first year mark. If they change that dramatically and explain things like their gimbal compatibility clearly with tutorials ect then I may be fully converted. It’s so close to being brilliant but a few niggles still.
@@SmartphoneFilmmaker the low light performance was also way better than filmic. Maybe they are applying some smart AI algorithms? I hate subscriptions too. I’d rather make a one time payment and be done with it.
I don't see any color space options in the settings. Which or what version of Protake is used in the video? The current one on Google Play doesn't have the option to choose color space or 8/10 bit recording.
BEASTCAM APP beginners tutorial and review: ua-cam.com/video/qq4MXfNWy8U/v-deo.html NOTE: *Pro mode only shoots 4K up to 30fps *You can create Timelapse within the app
Hi , i bought pro version, but i don't have the record run? i can also not choose between 8 or 10 bit, dolby vision and latency. What can i do about it? Can i also make photos with Protake?
Thank you! I’ve noticed that when you have the app on a iPhone Xs (🦕) there is no option for Portrait under the Pro modes. Sad, but hope this helps other old phone users.
It is smoother to use but I prefer Cinema P3. Cinema P3 is also a one off payment whereas Protake is subcription although Protake does have the useful remote feature.
Thank you for this great Protake video! Do you know if the monitor and camera devices can transmit without access to the internet? I'm hoping I can use this setup in the forest on a portable wireless LAN without the need to access the internet where there is no signal? Very grateful for your advise.👏🙏
How do you save videos from protake to gallery on a samsung s24 ultra? When I click to save, it only gives me an option to whatsapp or save to google photos. Filming pro glitches and is 10x the price. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi. I have a Redmi ohone which has this feature built in however, When using dual camera recording and you have the phone set to a windscreen mount in the car the road and everything from the main camera is very shaky. All I can think is that these apps cut off the stabilization facility within the phone. Have you ever tested this?. Thanks
I can only imagine you would need a high end car mount (if you don't already have one). As mobiles are so light shakes are a lot more apparent in these filming situations. You can play with post editing stabilisation. That's probably the next best bet.
Hi, I was searching for a good app for shooting with my anamorphic lens (I'm a complete novice and only just purchased it!) I've subscribed to pro take pro, any ideas why I can only get up to 30fps and don't have 3 stabilisation options, just on or off...
Very good review Rob, so saved my money, I found that almost all filing apps works the same so Beastcam could be one of the best choices. I would like to ask you some questions: 1. Is the gimbal fully integrated like in filmic pro? (you can control everything from the gimbal) 2. Support for 1.55x anamorphic ? 3. I would like to ask you to film some footage on log or Alexa profiles so I can test the curves in Davinci because in my opinion what all mobile apps do in log profiles is not really true, is just desaturate so you can later apply a lut. Thanks my friend
Thanks so much Nacho! Beastcam is an excellent choice. 1. The settings give you the option to use Protake with a Zhiyun gimbal however is doesn't say which type and there are literally no tutorials out there to learn from either so I would save your money for the time being at least until that becomes clearer. 2. It does not support 1.55x Anamorphic which is a little odd. 3. Pay me that top dollar and i'll go out and get some shots. lol : )
Unfortunately I gambled the one year subscription and lost. I paid so I could connect to my Smooth 5. So far I have been unsuccessful connecting. The gimbal has been out over a year so one would think there’s been enough time. I plan on leaving a scathing review on the App Store and possibly reporting it as fraud.
I have just subscribed to the Pro version and it seems to work with many of th DNJ Osmo6 gimbal functions. This is new to me as well so I am stillexperimenting. Just thought I would let you know about the Dmj gimbal
@@SmartphoneFilmmaker after a bunch of test, and if Dynamic Range is your goal, I’ve gotten the most dynamic range out of StaCam set to V-log, but the bitrate was maxed at 48mbs h.265, seems based on videos that this would be close to 16+ stops of DR on your phone
Unfortunately Protake logC profile is nothing more than just a low-contrast and low-saturated “insta” filter applied to the footage having nothing to do with real logarithmic profile. It doesn’t give you wider dynamic range.
@@SmartphoneFilmmaker well, have you ever seen a log profile where you can increase/decrease one’s intensity?)) Normally you can only switch it on/off. And you know how Protake looks work - they are just filters))
I still think Filmic Pro is the best overall app and they are easy to contact whereas Protake have pretty much no way of contacting them. Protake is very good and cheaper for subscription so it might be worth trying Protake for a year as the first year is half price.
@@SmartphoneFilmmaker In addition to the lag, in the evaluation version, it hung several times between videos without giving me access to record, and sometimes did not even save the supposedly recorded videos. I'm not sure if it's a problem with my phone (Motorola g60s) but with other apps, like Open Camera, in 4k with high bit rates there are no errors. A pity because from what little I saw, it seems worth the cost.
That's strange. In Pro or Auto mode resolution is in the top left. Tap on that and then the menu should appear bottom of the screen to change to 1080p or 4k. Otherwise uninstalling and then re-installing the app may work. Unfortunately as mentioned in the video their customer service is strangely non existent.
Yeah looks fantastic man . I love the review but I am simply not going to install ANY chinese app on my devices no matter how tempting it looks no way Jose.
Thanks! I'm a photographer amateur and have got anamorphic lenses for my S23 Ultra just for play, so this app seems perfect for me
You're welcome. Enjoy the app!
Some features of my camera are locked, so how should I open them? Pls help me

Can we use 60fps on portrait mode on the paid version?
Thank you for this.🙏🏼
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
Hello and thank you so much for this video. I know it's been a year but did they get rid of the dual feature for two files option?
They seem to have removed the second page of settings on record. I can't find the way to change to save to camera roll. It's frustrating.
Thank you! I’ve noticed that when you have the app on a iPhone Xs (🦕) there is no option for Portrait under the Pro modes. Sad, but hope this helps other old phone users.
Great review. this was extremely helpful! Thanks.
Thanks! Glad you found it so useful.
Can i take photos with this app? If not, what app do u recomend for photos only
Great review, is there any option to pause the video recording?
very explicit, thank you!
Thanks so much. You're welcome!
Wow
I would like to do a multi cam project in my Uber car. Will this work and which version
Excellent video, many thanks. Do you know if the pro version will work with the DJI Osmo Mobile 6?
Hi! I really wanted to know about that too! Have you ever figured out if it works normally?
Do you think it is better than Cinema p3?
It is smoother to use but I prefer Cinema P3. Cinema P3 is also a one off payment whereas Protake is subcription although Protake does have the useful remote feature.
@@SmartphoneFilmmaker Got it, thanks :)

Hey. Sorry I haven't actually used that feature yet. You can with Filmic Pro so I'd imagine can with Protake.
I can’t seem to get it to work with my smooth 5s
I have had the exact same issue. Due to this and the lack of customer support I no longer use this app although some people have stuck with it.
It would not work with my Smooth 5. I requested and got a refund from Apple.
@@jayplatt8798 Yeah the customer support for Protake is non existent. Not cool at all.
How to Pause and Resume video recording???
I don't think you can unfortunately.
@@SmartphoneFilmmaker Thanks. Very disappointed it doesn't have this features. This is very important.
How do you save videos from protake to gallery on a samsung s24 ultra? When I click to save, it only gives me an option to whatsapp or save to google photos.

It should still be a video even if you export to photos?

Bro how to open in 8plus
Thank you for the video! Does Protake supports recording stereo sound like stock camera app and filmic pro?
You're welcome. Hi I am not sure to be honest. Will have to test that out or there is a free version you can check out too. : )
Really really thank you for such an amazing detailed look. One question I have left. Is it possible to record directly onto an external drive?
Thanks! As far as I am aware that isn't an option with this app.
@@SmartphoneFilmmaker sad. Any other app for android that does this?
Hi, I was searching for a good app for shooting with my anamorphic lens (I'm a complete novice and only just purchased it!) I've subscribed to pro take pro, any ideas why I can only get up to 30fps and don't have 3 stabilisation options, just on or off...
Not heard of the issue before. I'd try uninstalling and then reinstalling the app.
@SmartphoneFilmmaker Another youtuber has said its due to the phones capabilities... an s23 Ultra?!
Quite possibly. Most apps are geared towards ios devices more in mind.@@pearsy4

Dude this camera supported external mic ?
As far as I am aware. Yes. You can try out the free version to be 100% sure.
Those looks are only useable in 8 bit 1080P/720P?
Yeah it's such a shame!

@@greenlightstudios3469 Thanks for the info! That's interesting that the bitrate is so low.
@@SmartphoneFilmmaker that vlog is hard to grad and too mushy looking. ProCam8 or Protake is better for sure, and better DR over filmic pro
Thank you. Subscribed.
Thanks for joining the community!
Unfortunately Protake logC profile is nothing more than just a low-contrast and low-saturated “insta” filter applied to the footage having nothing to do with real logarithmic profile. It doesn’t give you wider dynamic range.
Oh that's a shame! It does still look marginally better than Filmic Pros Log profile to my eyes. Maybe in a next gen phone some day.
@@SmartphoneFilmmaker well, have you ever seen a log profile where you can increase/decrease one’s intensity?))
Normally you can only switch it on/off. And you know how Protake looks work - they are just filters))
@@oleksii.lopasov Very true.
Do u like protake or filmic pro better ?
I still think Filmic Pro is the best overall app and they are easy to contact whereas Protake have pretty much no way of contacting them. Protake is very good and cheaper for subscription so it might be worth trying Protake for a year as the first year is half price.
Too much lag in 4k for android version :(
Oh damn. That's really strange.

ROB HOW ABOUT THE LATEST MESSAGE I SENT YOU ON ABOUT BEASTCAM APP AND HDR VIDEOING ??? PLS HELP ITS DRIVING ME MAD MY FRIEND
JUST REPLIED.
@@SmartphoneFilmmaker SORRY CONFUSTION MY FRIEND
I’ve got the paid version, it has no option for 4k, 1080p only, so far waste of money.

Better than filmic pro✋
I do like it a lot however the zhiyun smooth gimbal connecting in the settings seems to have no way of actually working. Very strange.
Yeah looks fantastic man . I love the review but I am simply not going to install ANY chinese app on my devices no matter how tempting it looks no way Jose.
Thanks. Yeah it runs very smoothly but the lack of online presence/customer service means I won't be renewing my subscription.
