But why would you?

This is not some low-budget video, it’s a high-end production.

If you have that kind of budget, your producer probably won’t care if you’re using an iPhone or a Sony FX-3(0) or even a rented “real” cinema camera like a Sony Venice or an Arri

I think this is targeted towards low budget productions
The fact that HN overall doesn’t understand is a bit revealing. The overall negativity is also surprising.
But those would probably not be able to afford the other equipment and crew, that was my point.
Obviously not but any other professional production would have those, all Apple did is remove the real camera and put an iPhone in. So any professional video setup able to afford say a camera rental and shit lighting or Bob the producer’s iPhone for free and actually good lighting can feasibly pick the latter.
