Apple added Genlock to the new Mac Studio and M5 Pro Mac mini, a feature that syncs multiple cameras for professional video production. Genlock, long used in broadcast TV, previously required expensive third-party hardware. Now built-in, it saves hours of manual alignment and is a key reason pros will buy.

The iPhone 17 Pro models already supported Genlock via a Blackmagic Design app, and now Macs get it natively. Greg Joswiak highlighted its benefits for creators, including accurate transitions and multi-angle shots. This update makes the Mac Studio a boon for filmmakers and streamers.
