My Atomos Rig: Philip Bloom’s Camera Review Gear Setup
By Adam Noyes
Atomos monitors and recorders are extremely popular and useful tools on the market for videography. Recently, Atomos has gathered a great number of creators using their gear in their day to day work.
Check out this video from Philip Bloom on how the Shinobi and Sumo Monitors factor into his workflow.
In this #MyAtomosRig video Philip Bloom walks us through the gear he uses to get creative results in his home studio setup. He utilises a variety of lenses and Sony cameras, combined with the Atomos Sumo19 and Shinobi SDI to achieve a professional look. Lighting and audio also play their part and Philip relies on the Rode NTG4 and NTG5 to get perfect sound. Lighting is provided by his patio doors and supplemented by a CAME TV RGB LED panel light.
Using the Sumo 19 allows him to both monitor with confidence and also record Apple ProRes from multiple cameras in HD or a single camera in 4K, The high quality files produced do not require any transcoding and are easy to edit.
