The Vertical Revolution: iPhone 17 Pro vs 16 Pro & DJI Mic Mini
Streams straight from the publisher. podnod never proxies or re-hosts episode audio.
Stop letting "purists" tell you vertical video isn't cinematic. In 2025, if you aren't shooting for vertical platforms, you are invisible. In this episode, I reveal my full mobile filmmaking workflow that gets more views than my cinema camera content.
I compare my real-world experience with the iPhone 16 Pro against the new iPhone 17 Pro specs—revealing why you probably don't need to upgrade. I also share the £50 audio tool (DJI Mic Mini) that creates professional sound in windy conditions and the critical settings (like preventing 50Hz flicker) that most beginners miss.
If you have a phone and £100, you have everything you need to start a professional channel today.
