Description:

The Atomos Ninja is a small form factor monitor-recorder, ideal for DSLR and mirrorless cameras. More codecs and monitoring tools than ever before.

The evolution of Ninja

The original Ninja rocked the world, combining an HD disk recorder with a touchscreen monitor you could hold in your hand. It captured pristine, uncompressed video direct from the first generation of DSLRs straight onto a removable SSD. Today, Ninja handles video sources up to nine times that resolution, has a 5-inch HDR screen, records ProRes, and connects to almost every camera in the world.

New ways to Ninja

The new Ninja gains a ton of new features, enabled by the new AtomOS 11. All designed to make you more productive by taking the friction out of your working day.

Colourized Exposure

A powerful new addition to AtomOS 11 provides industry-recognized EL Zone and ARRI colorized exposure display as a selectable alternative to Atomos false color. This allows Atomos monitors to display consistent colorized exposure with multiple monitors in the production pipeline. EL Zone is designed for camera operators. By colorizing exposure in stops so you can see exactly the true scene-referred dynamic range directly from the camera, which is ideal for exposure assessment of both HDR and SDR production. Its the best way to see colorized exposure on a monitor, and its industry-standard

TimeLapse

Set up time lapse recording and control it from your Ninja, completely independent of your cameras controls. Use the Ninjas screen for accurate visual alignment and its massive removable storage for longer projects.

RecordAssist

Set a time for your recording to start. Its ideal for covering pre-arranged events when you need to be somewhere else. If you have several Ninjas you can even record in multiple locations simultaneously. Its also a safer way to cover dangerous locations without risk to you and your colleagues. Finally, its perfect for wildlife shooting. Want to capture the action by the riverbank at sunset? Just dial-in the time and come back later.

Multiple Codecs

The new Ninja line includes the following codecs free of charge, giving you more options to choose the ideal codec for your projects.

• Apple ProRes
• Apple ProRes RAW
• H.265
• DNx (QuickTime)
• DNx (MXF)* coming later in 2023

The Apple ProRes codec is pre-activated to use out of the box, so you can start shooting immediately. To activate the H.265 and DNx codecs, visit my.atomos.com to register your product, then follow the simple online instructions to activate these codecs for free using an activation token system.

To activate the Apple ProRes RAW codec you need to go to the my.atomos.com portal. There is a small additional step to get the correct activation token and access the codec for free. You simply need to plug in your compatible RAW camera to complete the process. You only need to do this once to unlock this super-flexible and unique codec in perpetuity.

NDI HD TX

NDI is a way to send video over ordinary networks (including Wi-Fi and mobile) in high quality but with remarkably low bandwidth requirements. Its increasingly used in live production, and now your Ninja can take part in an NDI environment. The NDI TX option turns your Connect-enabled Ninja into an NDI source, visible to all other authorized devices on the network. Paid option. Requires Atomos Connect.

RemoteView

Atomos RemoteView lets you share whats on your Atomos screen with other Atomos monitors, as well as with iPads, Macs and Apple TVs wirelessly. You can monitor whats happening on-set and look through any connected camera taking the shot, from anywhere in the world.

Up to 4 feeds. Simultaneously.

Remote view doesnt need expensive hardware and uses the public internet, so its global. But Atomos technology ensures there are no delays. You can receive up to four RemoveView feeds on a single screen. Its all configurable from a simple web interface.

Powered by a unique combination of AtomOS 11 and Atomos Cloud Studio, you can share with the person standing next to you or someone across the globe just as easily.
