The iPhone 13 will bring several notable novelties and these will not stick to their look. Apple has mainly focused on functions and “pro” models will thus be able to film in ProRes. Finally, this will be the case when they have been updated. Explanations.
ProRes is a video format introduced by Apple a few years ago, a format that allows you to capture sequences with a minimum of loss and which therefore quickly found its place among professionals.
Many applauded the news, even if this format will involve some concessions in terms of storage.
The ProRes will lag behind the iPhone 13 Pro
However, there is also going to be another problem. The ProRes will not be available at the launch of the iPhone 13 Pro.
Indeed, Apple specifies in its documentation that this function is coming, and therefore that it will be deployed through a future update of the platform. The whole problem being of course that the firm does not specify which one … and does not give the shadow of a date.
In fact, if his statements are to be believed, the long-awaited update should land somewhere before the end of the year. The range is therefore quite wide.
Apple is redoing us the update
If the ad disappoints, it does not surprise. Apple did the same last year for the ProRAW. It was thus necessary to wait until November to take advantage of it on the iPhone 12 Pro. The function had indeed been activated by iOS 14.3.
Apple will not necessarily follow the same schedule, but in any case, it should not be counted on to take advantage of the launch of the iPhone 13 Pro. Launch scheduled for next week. More precisely on September 24.
It must be admitted, this announcement remains disappointing. While not everyone will be interested in ProRes, this format offers a lot of flexibility in post production and so many videographers were eager to get their hands on it. Unfortunately for them, they will have to wait and wait for the platform update.
