The Atomos Ninja 2 Video Recorder provides top-quality recording but also features monitoring functions that help assess exposure, focus, and calibration. Key features include:

Intuitive Functionality. The Atomos Ninja 2 Video Recorder offers intuitive signal-detection and file-management tools. All tasks are performed in an simple touchscreen operating environment.

High-Quality Recording. Recording is at 10-bit, 4:2:2 quality in Apple ProRes directly onto HDD or SSD drives, and Avid DNxHD pre-release firmware is now available as a downloadable option from Atomos. This recorder has HDMI inputs and outputs, and you can use an optional converter to capture by SDI. You have various serial-control options, including managing multiple Ninjas via an iPad over the web.

Compact Build. Designed compact and robust, and offering a workflow beyond just capture and output, the Ninja 2 can serve as a companion on and off the set. It’s worth noting that Atomos recorders were used in James Cameron’s Deepsea Challenger.

SSDs Not Included. This rental doesn’t include an SSD, but they’re available as separate rental items.
