Atomos Ninja V+ 5″ 8K HDMI H.265 Raw Recording Monitor Atomos

If you’re shooting with an 8K camera, then why not record in 8K raw format using the Ninja V+ 5″ 8K HDMI H.265 Raw Recording Monitor from Atomos? The Ninja V+ is the same 5″ on-camera monitor/recorder as its predecessor the Ninja V, but the Ninja+ now records and plays back up to 8K raw video to and from purpose-built mini-SSDs.

The Ninja V+ can record Apple ProRes raw up to 8K30 or DCI 4K120 directly from the sensor, and it is compatible with select cameras such as the Canon R5. It also includes H.265 pre-activated to record with the high-quality, low-bandwidth codec for up to 10-bit recording in ProRes 4:2:2. Display features include a 10-bit screen with a brightness of 1000 cd/m² AtomHDR technology for accurate monitoring of your log gamma footage, and support for popular log formats from Sony, ARRI, Canon, JVC, Panasonic, Nikon, RED, Sony, and Z CAM cameras.

Built to withstand the rigors of production, the Ninja V+ features an aluminum chassis and powers from a single L-series battery. Additional features include a variety of on-screen exposure analysis, framing, anamorphic de-squeeze, and focus assist tools. Separately available AtomX SDI, AtomX SYNC, Connect 4K modules, and an SDI Raw license key further expand your Ninja V+ capabilities.
