FAQ: Faith and Good Courage Podcast Gear

What camera do you use most?
iPhone 13 as the hero cam. It’s reliable, fast, and works perfectly with my teleprompter workflow.

Do you lock exposure and focus?
Yes. I use AE/AF lock on the iPhones for consistent color and brightness across angles. Trust me, there are a few episodes where you can see I forgot!

Why Cinamaker?
Simple multicam capture and switching on iPad. It keeps diner-booth episodes smooth.

Can you make a podcast with just an iPhone?
Yes. I’ve recorded full episodes using only an iPhone 13, a wireless mic, and iMovie.

What teleprompter do you use?
I use the Neewer Basics X12B with a Prompter People adaptor for my iPhone 13 hero cam.
