Earlier this week Atomos accouned the new AtomX Cast. The AtomX CAST is compatible with the Atomos Ninja V and Ninja V+ monitor-recorders and can transform your unit into an advanced four-HDMI switcher. CineD’s Jeff Loch covers the extciting new product and goes over it’s important features in their new article.

Here are some highlights from CineD’s article.

The Atomos AtomX CAST is one of the biggest expansion modules of the entire AtomX lineup and takes the concept to another level.
Indeed, you’ll have to insert your Ninja V/V+ onto the CAST module, plug the AtomX port, and secure the monitor-recorder to the CAST module via a screw at the top of the unit. You’ll end up with what looks like a totally new product.

With the Ninja V/V+ docked into the AtomX CAST, you can use the 5” touchscreen for setup operations. Also, your monitor-recorder doubles up as a more “traditional” monitor with all Ninja V/V+ built-in monitoring/exposure/focus tools. Then switch to multi-view to see all four inputs at once, complete with audio level monitoring.
Last but not least, the Ninja V/V+ HDMI output can be used as a secondary output that can be set up as a duplicate program out, preview monitoring, or a dedicated multi-view output.
