The Camera You Need Is in Your Pocket

You don’t always need expensive DSLRs and camcorders for everyday video productions. With the AeroCaster system, you can take full advantage of the amazing cameras in the latest phones and use them as high-quality inputs for your livestream.

Once mobile devices are connected to AeroCaster LIVE, you have remote access to all their advanced camera settings from within the app. Balance and match the image between different phone cameras and control settings like focus, zoom, exposure, white balance, and more.

 

Record Program and ISO Video

Whether livestreaming or working offline, the flexible AeroCaster system lets you easily record productions for later editing and distribution.

Then wirelessly transfer the phone videos to the iPad and put all the files together for post-production work in the app of your choice.
