Reviews: What People Think About ARRI Camera Companion
Loic de Lame
Rating: 3/5
Edit: 25.05.10
1.0.3 does resolve much of the problems with the subscription necessitating an internet connection. However, I still run into an issue where intermittent connectivity or a change in connectivity seems to have the app loose it’s “memory” of the subscription status. Any way to save this one time when it’s verified what the expiration date is and hold onto it so as to never necessitate an internet connection? Really makes this app unreliable.
Edit: 25.05.07
Updated to 1.0.3 and the subscription status holds regardless of internet connectivity. Thanks!
Still pretty expensive for a premium subscription.
Edit: 25.04.28
Updated to 1.0.2. Still have an issue with the subscription not holding and everything going to the basic/demo mode.
When it does switch from basic/demo to licensed mode (premium in this case), all the cameras are defaulted to A camera despite the project having 4 different cameras. So have to reset the slots with each camera.
AppUB doesn’t behave as expected with MiniLF. Increase/decrease ND sometimes works or doesn’t. If I select 1.8 from the ND pop-up and then do an ND increase/decrease via and the AppUB, it would go to 0.6

I’ve used Arri CC since beta and it’s great. However, with this official release, which I think is overpriced, you can not open it properly without an internet connection.
On a show with 4 cameras and without an internet connection, it opens to the default 1 camera project. Once internet is present, then it will pen the project, albeit without my cameras properly laid out as I had them.
This makes the app unusable as there’s no guarantee on set that you’ll have internet, contrary to common assumptions.
About ARRI Camera Companion
The ARRI Camera Companion for iPhone, iPad, and Mac with Apple Silicon enables you to configure your own personalized interface for remote control of one or multiple ALEXA 35, ALEXA Mini LF, ALEXA Mini, AMIRA, and ALEXA 265 cameras.
Camera Companion is available as a Standard subscription that provides comprehensive control of camera functions or a Premium subscription that adds features such as MIDI support via physical control devices. The free Demo version offers basic camera control, camera menu access, and access to free Standard and Premium trial periods that let you familiarize yourself with the app before deciding which subscription is right for you.
Control multiple cameras simultaneously
In the Demo version you can control just one camera, while the Standard subscription lets you control one or two cameras at the same time, and with a Premium subscription the number of cameras is unlimited.
Camera status overview
The Demo version includes all commonly required status displays: timecode, codec, recording resolution, look file, ARRI Texture (ALEXA 35), lens data, frame lines, remaining media, last clip, power, battery, focus, iris, zoom, and active camera, while the Standard subscription also lets you change these settings. With the Premium subscription you additionally get CDL control and video parameter control (ALEXA Mini and AMIRA).
Basic camera control
In the Demo version of Camera Companion, you can control basic camera functions such as starting and stopping recording, as well as setting the exposure index, white balance value, and ND filter in use.
Full camera control
Almost all camera control parameters are accessible in the Standard subscription. In addition to the basic controls available in the Demo, they comprise playback, frame rate, shutter angle, prerecording, sensor flip, Web Remote, and frame grab. In the Premium subscription you also get sensor sync shift value and simple FIZ control with cforce lens motors.
Camera menu access
Camera Companion incorporates the well-established and familiar ARRI Web Remote, a browser-based tool that duplicates the camera menu interface. This ensures complete access not only to every camera function via the app, but every menu parameter as well. It is available in the Demo version and both subscriptions.
Customizable app layout
Once you’ve activated either a Standard or Premium subscription, you can simply drag and drop control tiles into a custom layout that suits your way of working, giving you fingertip control of whichever parameters you need.
Infinite customizable user buttons
With a Standard or Premium subscription, unlimited app user buttons can be freely assigned to literally any camera function you want and then dragged and dropped into your personalized layout.
Multiple tabs for cameras or layouts
You can organize and simplify your interface into several easily navigable tabs with a Premium subscription. You might want to create different tabs for different cameras or shooting situations, or assign a tab to playback control.
MIDI support
Perhaps especially useful to DITs, the Premium subscription enables MIDI support for tactile control via physical input devices. Vintage Casio keytar, anyone?
