Shooting ProRes RAW with Ninja TX GO and Fujifilm X-H2S
By Stephanie R
Pairing the Fujifilm X-H2S with the Atomos Ninja TX GO unlocked a powerful, budget-friendly path to professional filmmaking. While the X-H2S already delivered fast readout, beautiful F-Log2 images, and high-resolution internal recording, connecting the Ninja TX GO enabled true 12-bit ProRes RAW capture over HDMI, bypassing internal compression and preserving full sensor data for maximum flexibility in post-production.
The Ninja TX GO functioned as both a high-brightness 5-inch monitor and an external recorder, offering tools like waveforms, focus peaking, LUT support, and anamorphic desqueeze. Its 1500-nit display made outdoor shooting easier, while seamless record triggering and RAW output support kept the workflow simple and reliable. ProRes RAW provided greater control over white balance, highlights, shadows, and color grading, now supported across major NLEs, including DaVinci Resolve.
Together, the Ninja TX GO and X-H2S delivered exceptional image quality in a compact and affordable setup. For filmmakers, content creators, and indie producers seeking to elevate their footage without venturing into full cinema camera territory, this pairing provided cinematic results, future-proof codecs, and creative freedom—at a price that made RAW workflows more accessible than ever.
