![]() ![]() Although AirDrop failed to transfer the resulting 20GB-plus files to my iMac 5K, plugging the iPhone 11 Pro Max into the computer via USB to Lightning cable allowed copying larger files from DoubleTake’s in-app library to an external volume right from the Finder with macOS Catalina. I used DoubleTake to record a recent church service, where the app performed flawlessly for the entire 90 minutes of recording. Like Filmic Pro, DoubleTake offers no built-in video editing tools of its own, but files are recorded in lock step with each other, so editing is just a matter of lining up the start of both clips in the timeline and cutting between them, a task made easier with multi-angle editing in FCPX. Picture-in-Picture mode makes it possible to record videos that include your reaction from the front-facing camera as well.īy default, DoubleTake works in Discrete mode, recording each camera as a separate video ready to be imported into Final Cut Pro X or other nonlinear editing software, including the excellent The B camera can also be expanded to fill the screen, where you can swipe to flip between views. ![]() The A camera fills the screen, while the B camera appears in a small box at lower right, which can be moved elsewhere by dragging it to a new location or hidden completely by swiping it off to the edge. Now tap Confirm, followed by the Record button in the lower right corner to start capturing a second tap stops the recording. Should you change your mind, tapping a selected lens the second time will deselect it. Select the camera you want to use as the “A” lens to highlight it in yellow, then repeat to select the “B” camera. Tap the camera picker, which opens a view of all available lenses separated into four quadrants. There’s also a Quick Launch button in camera picker mode which launches FilmicPro, with a similar shortcut also added to that app for jumping straight to DoubleTake instead. Split View allows recording from two cameras at once without the need to composite video in post-production.Īdmittedly basic compared to Filmic Pro, DoubleTake provides full-frame focus and exposure, as well as the ability to choose between 24, 25, and 30 frames per second recordings. Viewed in this light, DoubleTake is an impressively handy camera app that does what it promises and nothing more. Although that may come as a disappointment, it’s worth noting DoubleTake is a free app, one which Filmic likely views as “proof of concept” software intended to work out any final kinks in the code before rolling four-camera support into the core app. ![]()
