    Very informative tight produced video. I'm very new to this but you pointed me in the right direction. Just one question. Which model do you recommend for my Sony A7ii (I got a good deal on it so I bought this one instead of the iii)

    Thanks for the great detail regarding the monitor.
    Question:
    I’m trying to make sure I understand you correctly. If I’m using the monitor to record my footage, let’s say SLOG3, and I turn on ATOM HDR then adjust the slider to (you said) 400-500, is the footage being recorded to the SSD with the HDR effect?
    Or
    Is the monitor just displaying the data being recorded and still recording to the SSD in SLOG3 for grading in post?
    I’m purchasing a Ninja Flame 7 for my A7 III and I like know as much as possible before the new gear is in my hands.

    Recently, I assisted on a pro-video [paid] shoot and got to use the Ninja video recorders. ABSOLUTELY, this is essential equipment for all the reasons you've stated. I would recommend a camera bracket or separate stand, not cold shoe. Ninja touch screen software is ridiculously good.😍

    I just found your video. Where did you find the info about recording in 10 bit being better, even though the source is 8 bit?

    • @TheLordofDawn
      @TheLordofDawn 4 роки тому

      even with 8bit, many cameras, like A7III for example can output chroma subsampling of 4:2:2 over hdmi even though they can just record 8bit 4:2:0 internally (due to compression and overheating reasons), I think that's what he means... - in the end it means a little better color ranges

  • @ran1776
    @ran1776 3 роки тому

    How would it work on older HD cameras? Would you be able to record higher quality video on it if you had a lower quality camera feeding into it? Example, a Panasonic AF-100 or a ENG styled Panasonic AJ-HPX2700 Varicam.

    But don't you lose the ability to record in the *log format? (If the camera supports it of course).
    Seems like the recording feature is a nice thing to have, but my guess on its usage is that, it depends on what you're going to shoot in the first place and how much you're going to fiddle with the footage in post.
    Still, miles ahead than the classic 4:2:0 H264 garbage.

  • @dirbyozz
    @dirbyozz Рік тому +1

    I would just like to chime in that if your camera already shoots in ProRes (mine actually shoots in every form of the ProRes format) then this actually becomes a little more dicey, especially since mine exclusively outputs 4:2:0 over SDI (and it has no HDMI) but can shoot internally in 4:2:2. Do your research on whatever camera YOU have and make sure that a video recorder will actually benefit you.

    I don't know any terminology here, but your voice sounds very harsh with whatever microphone/editing you've got going on. It is very close to sounding nice, but its just somehow very harsh on the ears. Great video, and the good news is, you have a great voice, just needs something softened up a bit.

      I can agree with that. The high-end stuff usually has that second mortgage pricetag that a major TV network or studio can afford. Most of my videos were shot with 2nd hand equipment (and it shows!). These video recorders used to be VERY expensive and hard to justify only a few years ago.
