Are you a full-time, part-time, or occasional iPhone videographer? We have great news for you if you use the latest iPhone 16 models (Pro or Pro Max). Tilta has unveiled its newest Khronos Ecosystem for these models.

This modular camera cage system is easy to use and a powerful upgrade option for smartphone filmmakers looking to enhance their workflows. The Khronos Ecosystem from Tilta has garnered solid reviews for its previous iPhone versions, and this latest one is set to improve even further.

Let’s take a look at the Khronos Ecosystem for iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max smartphones and how you can enhance your iPhone videography.

Tilta Khronos Ecosystem for iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max

As smartphone videography (and, in many cases, iPhone videography specifically) continues to become a more viable option for content creators of all types, many find it frustrating to try to run and gun with their iPhones when they first come out of the box.

After all, despite being marketed based on their videography specs and features, iPhones are still designed to serve as texting, internet-browsing, and calling functions first and foremost. If you truly want to get the most out of the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max models’ video specs, cages, and ecosystems like this will give you a big boost.

The Khronos Ecosystem from Tilta connects to your iPhone via USB-C and can accept a variety of different accessories to assist in your shooting—especially if you use apps like Blackmagic Camera.

Features and Add-ons

Khronos has shared that this new Ecosystem for the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max models will be about 15% lighter than previous versions while still being just as durable and versatile. Khronos also offers several different kit options, which can bring about the following features, including:

  • Protective case made from 6-series aluminum alloy

  • Multi-functional backplate

  • Tool-free installation with the anti-slip quick-release system

  • Quick Release USB-C Hub

  • Cooling Module / System V2

  • Focus PD Handle

  • Mini LED Panel

  • Lens Adapter

  • Quick Release Filter Tray

  • ND Filters

Plus, there are many more features and add-ons.
