Atomos Ninja V vs. NEW Ninja and Ninja Ultra (in-depth comparison) https://news.broadfield.com/atomos-ninja-v-vs-new-ninja-and-ninja-ultra-in-depth-comparison/ Fri, 17 Nov 2023 17:00:00 +0000 https://news.broadfield.com/?p=27068 The new Atomos Ninja and Ninja Ultra present a compelling upgrade with enhanced features and capabilities, catering to the needs of users seeking advanced functionality. Notable improvements include dual record functionality, 8K ProRes RAW support in the Ninja Ultra, and scheduled time-lapse recording. Unlike the Ninja, the Ninja Ultra excels in capturing 8K ProRes RAW for compatible cameras, while the Ninja is limited to recording up to 6K on compatible devices. An added flexibility comes with the Ninja V, now powered through USB-C, offering increased convenience for users.

Moreover, the new Ninja introduces two additional exposure tools, featuring false color measured by IR values and false color measured by stops. Cinematographers benefit from these tools, enhancing exposure options for better control. The inclusion of a record schedule is a noteworthy feature, allowing users to automatically initiate and conclude time lapses, streamlining the setup process and eliminating the need for constant monitoring.

Furthermore, the new Ninja provides H.265, ProRes, ProRes RAW, and DNX formats without additional costs, eliminating the need to purchase the EXT ra codex as required by the older Ninja. The camera and Cloud feature facilitate real-time access to 4K 422 10-bit H.265 files, enhancing workflow efficiency. Additionally, both the new Ninja and Ninja Ultra support remote viewing and high-quality streaming to up to four devices, including other Ninja or Ultra devices with the Connect module. Compatibility extends to iPad, MacBook, or phone, broadening the scope of accessible devices.

A significant enhancement is the introduction of ezone or AR false color to the new Ninja, contributing to its overall value proposition. The ability to sell the old Ninja to offset the cost of the upgrade further strengthens the case for transitioning to the new model.

Atomos Announces New Shogun Series https://news.broadfield.com/atomos-announces-new-shogun-series/ Thu, 26 Oct 2023 18:00:00 +0000 https://news.broadfield.com/?p=26771 In a recent blog post on TheBroadcastBridge, the author highlights Atomos’ latest innovation – the new generation of Shogun camera-mounted monitor-recorders: Shogun and Shogun Ultra. These new devices are set to push the boundaries of creative content production, and they come equipped with a cutting-edge operating system known as AtomOS 11. This new OS brings forth a plethora of innovative features, including EL Zone exposure referenced colorized images, ARRI False Color, and brand-new scheduled playback and recording tools.

One significant enhancement is the expansion of codecs available in the Shogun and Shogun Ultra, making them even more versatile. The Shogun now offers 6K Apple ProRes RAW (and 8K with the Shogun Ultra), along with Apple ProRes, DNxHD, and H.265, the latter of which was previously accessible only as a paid option. This broadened codec support ensures better consistency and compatibility across various production requirements. These two Shogun models share the same differentiating features introduced in the new Ninja and Ninja Ultra lines, further streamlining the user experience.

One of the key distinctions between the Shogun and Ninja lines is the Shogun’s brighter 2000nit 7-inch screen, which ensures excellent visibility in various lighting conditions. Furthermore, the Shogun boasts fully integrated connectivity, including both 12G-SDI and HDMI inputs and outputs. This feature enables cross-conversion, eliminating the need for additional components, which is a notable advantage over a Ninja equipped with Atomos Connect. Additionally, the Shogun offers more power options, featuring an NP battery slot and an integrated 2.1mm locking jack DC input socket, making it adaptable to a wide range of setups.

The Shogun Ultra, in particular, is optimized for use with cinematic cameras, offering the capability to record full-quality files to Apple ProRes RAW at up to 4K 60p while simultaneously recording HD 60p to H.265. It also supports automatic matching of filenames, timecode, and record trigger from many popular camera models, such as ARRI, Canon, RED, and Sony. This makes it an excellent choice for demanding cinematographic productions.

Both the Shogun and Shogun Ultra models come with an innovative 4K camera-to-cloud mode, allowing users to record and upload higher quality bitrate H.265 videos with increased framerates and customizable parameters. These files are lightweight enough for efficient camera-to-cloud workflows while maintaining exceptional quality for immediate use on social media, sports reporting, or news gathering.

Another noteworthy feature is the integration of Atomos RemoteView. This groundbreaking technology enables users to share live views from their Atomos screen with other Atomos monitors and various devices, including iPads, Macs, and Apple TVs, all done wirelessly. This capability opens up exciting opportunities for production teams to monitor on-set activities and view shots from connected cameras from anywhere in the world. RemoteView offers a unique set of features not typically found at this price point, enhancing collaboration and remote monitoring in the production process.

The Shogun Ultra goes a step further by offering lower latency cloud connectivity and higher throughput, thanks to its integration of Wi-Fi 6E technology. Atomos continues to demonstrate its commitment to staying at the forefront of technology by incorporating this cutting-edge Wi-Fi standard into its cloud-enabled products, ensuring a smoother and more efficient user experience.

For existing users of the Shogun Connect, there’s good news. AtomOS 11 will be made available as a free firmware update, ensuring they can take advantage of the latest features and enhancements. Additionally, it’s important to note that the Shogun Ultra is poised to replace the Shogun Connect, making it an enticing option for users seeking to upgrade to the latest and most advanced capabilities in camera-mounted monitor-recorders.

In conclusion, Atomos has raised the bar once again with the introduction of the Shogun and Shogun Ultra. With their advanced features, expanded codec support, improved connectivity options, and innovative technologies like AtomOS 11 and RemoteView, these devices promise to be invaluable tools for content creators, filmmakers, and production teams looking to take their projects to the next level. Whether for cinematic productions, live events, or on-set monitoring, the Shogun series is poised to deliver outstanding performance and creative possibilities.

Shooting a Blockbuster With the Sony FX3: A Rare Inside Look by The Creator’s DITs https://news.broadfield.com/shooting-a-blockbuster-with-the-sony-fx3-a-rare-inside-look-by-the-creators-dits/ Thu, 19 Oct 2023 20:30:00 +0000 https://news.broadfield.com/?p=26715 In this article by YM Cinema, we take a detailed look into the technical preparations of the Sony FX3 for ‘The Creator’ shoot. Teevarit Pirompapachoke, the DIT and data wrangler of the Thailand unit, shares exclusive photos and insights about the challenges they faced. Discover how the FX3 was harnessed as the primary setup on this high-budget project.

They’ve crafted numerous articles revolving around ‘The Creator,’ a high-budget sci-fi action spectacle remarkably filmed with the Sony FX3, a prosumer camera. While the concept of action narratives shot on accessible consumer cameras isn’t entirely new (recall the unforgettable ‘Act of Valor,’ captured on the Canon 5D Mark II by the legendary Shane Hurlbut ASC, even gracing IMAX screens), it remains incredibly intriguing to delve into the ‘how’ of it all.

The advantages of employing compact and straightforward cameras are widely acknowledged. Nonetheless, these cameras typically lack the design nuances essential for large-scale cinematic productions necessitating sizable crews. Even though the FX3 is touted as a ‘cinema camera’ and proudly represents Sony’s Cinema Line, it grapples with its own constraints, which evolve into substantial challenges when deployed in substantial big-screen endeavors.

Thus, we sought the expertise of Teevarit Pirompapachoke, a proficient DIT and data wrangler within the Thailand unit of ‘The Creator.’ Teevarit graciously enlightens us on the technical obstacles and methodologies that the Thailand team encountered throughout ‘The Creator’ production, playfully code-named ‘TRUE LOVE’ by their talented crew.

Behind the scenes of The Creator – The Thailand team with DP Oren Soffer. Picture: Teevarit Pirompapachoke from WEDITIT

“Since Atomos isn’t compatible with a 2.76:1 frame line and no customizable software like ARRI, we had to come up with a Frame Chart to see the frame we were going to use. Although it took us days to complete, we used tapes to section off Atomos into our desired frame, and we could customize other SmallHD monitors.  After that, we manually set up (x7) Sony FX3s and (x8) Atomos to be identical for the main and backup cams, along with countless GoPros and Drones that went through all the tests together with the FX3”.

Pairing the Sony FX3 with an Atomos Ninja recorder can greatly enhance your filmmaking experience. The Atomos Ninja recorders are renowned for their high-quality external recording capabilities, providing a range of advantages for your creative projects. Firstly, they enable higher-quality recording, often offering higher bitrates and less compressed formats than internal camera recording. This results in improved image quality and greater flexibility during post-production. Additionally, external recorders like the Atomos Ninja offer a broader array of recording options, including ProRes and DNx codecs, which can be invaluable for various post-production workflows. Furthermore, they come with larger storage capacity, allowing for longer recording times, reducing the need to frequently change storage media. Moreover, Atomos recorders provide advanced monitoring features such as focus peaking and waveform monitoring, contributing to achieving the best possible image quality. While there are additional costs and considerations to manage, the benefits of using an Atomos Ninja with your Sony FX3 are substantial, offering filmmakers the opportunity to elevate their content creation to new heights.

Atomos Shinobi 7: Quick Overview https://news.broadfield.com/atomos-shinobi-7-quick-overview/ Thu, 10 Jun 2021 20:30:00 +0000 https://news.broadfield.com/?p=18791 The Atomos Shinobi 7 is here! Back in May Atomos announced their new 7″ 2200nit HDR HDMI+SDI i/o Pro Video and Photo Monitor that works with any camera, the Shinobi 7. According to Brian Hallett of ProVideo Coalition the “Shinobi 7 is a bigger and brighter monitor that takes the foundations of the original Shinobi to new heights. With a calibrated peak brightness of 2200Nits, the Shinobi 7 can tackle the brightest of environments without the need for a sun hood or the need to convert Log inputs for HDR monitoring.” In Hallet’s quick overview of the new product he highlights important features this monitor brings to the production industry. Check out some highlights below.

Control your camera by using the touch screen on the Shinobi 7; Atomos designed the touch screen to give you fast access to the most crucial camera features. Focus on the image and make adjustments of iris, white balance, shutter angle, and ND. With the optional Atomos USB-C to serial cable, support is available out the box for the Z Cam E2 series camera, providing direct control of all the menu configurations. The additional USB and RJ45 control ports on the Shinobi 7 also provide support for future developments, as more options are added for touch screen camera control


Brian Hallett

The Shinobi 7  screen displays a stunning 10+ stops of dynamic range in realtime from Log/PQ/HLG signals. Combined with our unique HDR monitoring features, the Shinobi 7 simplifies the complexities of shooting Log and HDR, helping you to replicate post-production workflows at the moment when it matters most – during your shoot. With Adaptive Cooling, you can also prioritize reduced fan noise or the display’s peak brightness, allowing you to choose between a brighter image on the Shinobi 7 or reduced fan noise.

The Ninja V is an awesome recorder. I feel like 5″ displays are ideal on cameras and gimbals. And also for the price and what it is capable of, I would highly recommend it.

Record like a Ninja!

Eliminate your camera’s internal compression and time limits – record up to 4Kp60 10-bit HDR video direct from your camera’s sensor over HDMI 2.0. Teamed with a 1TB AtomX SSDmini you can now achieve up to 150 minutes of 4K recording on a single drive!

AtomOS 10 Supercharges Your Ninja V Monitor/Recorder https://news.broadfield.com/atomos-10-supercharges-your-ninja-v-monitor-recorder/ Fri, 07 Dec 2018 23:00:42 +0000 https://news.broadfield.com/?p=11762 From cinema5d.com

AtomOS 10 (10.01 to be exact) comes as a free-to-download piece of software. Once you’ve installed it, you’ll be rewarded with a familiar, yet very different user interface. Since the Ninja V is all about HDR recording and monitoring, Atomos chose to make the different UI elements less distracting and therefore reduced their saturation quite a bit. It’s all about the actual image you’re monitoring, really. But there’s more, obviously.Atom OS 10

AtomOS 10

Apart from the less saturated UI elements (a nice touch, much more pleasing to the eye I think), Atomos also changed the arrangement of these elements and even reworked the whole menu system in order to make it easier and more accessible. If you’re updating from an earlier version of AtomOS, it’s pretty clear that this new version is really about cleaning up the user interface. It’s also about keeping the actual image in view at all times, without having many overlaying pages and menus.

The entire user interface has been carefully reworked to cater for the smaller 5″ screen of the Atomos Ninja V.

Improved Features

Once you’re done setting up the unit for your given shot you can easily get rid of all the overlays by just tapping the screen. That’s fine but this will also disable all the crucial information you probably want to keep an eye on, such as audio meters or a HDR waveform. That’s where the newly designed shooting page comes in. Once you’re done with your monitor settings and tap “MON” again, a discrete status bar is the only thing that appears beneath your current image. That status bar includes useful information such as battery status, recording status, an HDR waveform, audio meters and access to all the well-known REC, PLAY, MON and EDIT settings.

One of the major changes AtomOS 10 addresses is the way you select the type of input signal coming from your camera. This setting used to be part of the Monitor page of the menu. Now it can be found on the Input page and that is -at least to me- a much more appropriate place for this particular setting. Jeromy Young, CEO of Atomos, has put together a in-depth walk-through of all the new Atom OS 10 features, make sure to sit back and watch it here…read more
