Cruise is just looking for more publicity! Whether or not he holds these "trophies" makes no difference, but he just wants to get into the limelight. I have no respect for him any more.
I own both the Pocket 2 and its predecessor, the Osmo Pocket. I find that the Pocket 2 active track is very poor at tracking someone, even just walking across the frame at normal walking pace, the camera looses tracking. Hope that this will improve with a firmware update. Other than that I am very happy with the Pocket 2 and recommended it, but do yourself a favour and only consider the Creator Pack option.
Excellent summary. I started cutting just after FCP X came out and never used Avid or Premier, so didn't have to unlearn anything. I just love it! Also love the FCP X Community, so helpful.
Of academic interest only, but who invented/developed the Mocha tracking engine? I've tried Google but been unsuccessful in finding an answer.

I resist subscription software, and will not buy this either. I am a sporadic user and don't see a business case to pay every month for something I might not use for months at a time. I am happy to use FilmicPRO and even pay for an upgrade, and edit with iMovie.
Thanks for the write up, but no thanks for the App.
Most commenters here seem to have missed the point, which is that the iPhone (13 in this case) can be a tool to do something great. Why bitch about directors, lighting, makeup etc.? It is a TOOL (camera), no one is claiming that you don't need production input? Come on guys, if someone showed you a power drill being used to put together a kit house, you wouldn't complain that you need the house parts?
Nor is anyone saying that the iPhone 13 replaces your Arri or Red or C300 cameras. What they are showing is the capability that you can now have in your pocket and instead of spending $50k to $100k on just the camera, you can now produce something with a bunch of $2k iPhones, and of course you still need a story, a DOP, actors, makeup, lighting cgi, etc. etc.. So please keep it in perspective!
