How to record 4k 120p with Ninja V

[@capturelightmedia]

This is such a perfectly simple solution that I'm embarrassed for myself having not thought of it. Thank you.

[@SladesOfGlory]

Will this work with the Sony FX3 playback?

[@lifeon2wheels1990]

Can this be done on a7siii

[@skrotfiske]

Does the camera actually output 10-bit over HDMI when in playback mode? I contacted Canon support and they didn't know (lmao, how can they not know?) they said they would get back to me but they never did, this makes me believe it's not actually 10-bit. It's def a faster way to get a ProRes file that looks like a 120fps file but it's not actually a 120 fps file and it seems like it might not be in 10-bit either. Fast isn't always best.

[@VyasAnand]

This is a good question and I believe it would be, if it is in the menu on the Camera for that (like Sony that kets you have multiple codecs from 420 to 422). That said I would hope the camera is sending out the highest signal it can, I am going to read a bit about this, again great question.

[@Kayserjp]

so converting on a pc the clean h264 4k120p into prores is better and faster right? the hdmi output wont give clean output in 10bit or raw anyway.

[@UNTITLEDPHOTOGRAPHY]

Hi Mateusz, @3:18 you've connected the SSD via a cable - which cable is that or do you have any recommendations? One highly rated SSD to USB I found was maxed around 400 MBps (read speed) but I'm not sure if that affects performance while editing off of the SSD directly.

I guess that camera shows 120p footage slowed down so you can capture that slow motion already interpolated

Hi Mateusz, thanks for your nice Video! Did I get this right ? You record 120 p Footage in your Canon internaly and then you make a playback in the canon and at the same time you record with the ninja V ?

[@mj.cutsense]

Yes exactly. It can definitely help when you only a few clips to transcode

[@ginotarabotto]

@@mj.cutsense Hi, would be great to see the exact steps to achieve this. Thank you for the video.

[@area28]

I dont understand it. You record the files from intern ssd with 120 fps with Ninja. Tried this, getting no 120 fps

[@mj.cutsense]

Not an SSD, but an SD card is being used to record. The final file is 25p which is 4x slower, because it has already been slowed down in camera. It's quite simple.

[@petevanvalkenburg8667]

Doesn't seem to with the the Canon R5

[@iliaskapatos]

When the Atomos is connected, I can't find out how to start any Playback in the R5. I guess I tried every setting. So most probably it won't work with the R5.

[@iliaskapatos]

Sorry, was wrong, it works also with the R5. You can playback the 120fps in the Canon and then record this in the Atomos Ninja V

[@ThePistonPit]

Hows the ninja v for monitor only? Without recording? I looked at the shinobi as well, but at times i may want to record in camera at 4k60p and my question is can this show on the shinobi? Or is it capped at 4k30p?

[@mj.cutsense]

Depending on your money, I would personally choose to use SmallHD monitors over Ninja V. I'm in the process of making a film about my favorite monitor available right now. Although Shinobi is ok, there is only one option if you want the finest OS, colors, and experience.

Is the slow-motion generated in camera or is it native 120p footage you need to slow down to 24p in post? I have tried to transcode native 120p Prores and can't find a way to do it?

[@mj.cutsense]

It's already slowed down to 25 or 24p. If you want to transcode your native files I recommend using Editready software. It's a very simple and convenient way if you have plenty of 120p shots.

You don't need any additional device to record. Atomos is needed only when you want to work with ProRes codec.

[@MrExel47]

Hi. I am using the Ninja V+ with a C70 via HDMI 2.1 cable. I would like to record ProRes Raw 120fps directly onto the SSD of the Ninja. But it's just not working. Is it even possible? I don't have a proper SD in my C70 yet.

[@mj.cutsense]

It's not possible because c70 outputs 10bit 4K 60p via HDMI. To get RAW signal you have to record internally.

[@MrExel47]

@@mj.cutsense Thanks for the quick answer! What a bummer. Maybe if the C70 had SDI, it would have been possible. Here is another strange behaviour I am seen. I can only get the Ninja up to 50p. No matter which codec. Any idea why?

[@witoldskiba4668]

Not sure you’re still keeping this channel but I’ll give it a try . This is pretty slick work around but I find flaw with playing back the footage and ninja recording at the frame rate of 59.94 without option for changing to desired rate . My camera hdmi out it’s set to 2160 /24 fps but that doesn’t effect ninja . Changing to Raw out in camera doesn’t change anything , only thing changes is if I’ll go 1080 then shows on the recorder hd instead of uhd but the frame stays the same no matter what . I’ll appreciate any input

[@mj.cutsense]

Without physically observing the issue, it is difficult to know, but the cable might be problem. Check if your HDMI cable supports 60p, for example, the original Atomos HDMI is compatible with 60p.

[@TheAverageYouCuber]

We suspect that the Ninja 5 plus 8k doesn't entertain the bmpcc 6k & bmpcc 6k pro being upscaled to 8k. Sadly however the Ninja V+ (8k) doesn't appear to entertain Blackmagic's BRAW format at 8k and doesn't look to be upgraded with these additional features anytime soon such as in future models such as the Ninja VI plus! Unfortunately ProRes within this configurment is only restricted to 4k 120fps! I would be happy to stand corrected whether this isn't entirely accurate, cheers!

[@MrWazzin]

Ha! Does it play back in 10 bit in slomo? I don`t think so

[@fostervf16]

It's a 10 bit file so of course it should playback 10 bit.

[@skrotfiske]

@@fostervf16 Does the playback output 10-bit 4:2:2 over HDMI? Not so sure about that. It could just as easily be 8-bit 4:2:0. It's only meant to be a quick way to show what you've recorded on a TV or a external monitor. It could be 10-bit 4:2:2 but it doesn't have to be. Nowhere in the manual does it say what it outputs over HDMI when in playback mode.

[@Patrick-jj5nh]

thanks great video, personally i m still deciding whether to buy c70 or bmpcc 6k pro, from your perspective it would be an advantage of the 6k pro that u can shoot all in prores natively except 6k?

[@mj.cutsense]

In the case of ergonomics, I would definitely go with the c70. Prores is an important advantage but you can't use it with 6k so is not that useful anymore. With pocket 6k pro, you can't use a speed booster so you're cutting part of optics on a full-frame lens. C70 is more versatile for me with a 0.71x adapter and nd filters combo it's super convenient to work with. It depends on your budget but if you're able to afford it c70 is a better choice in my opinion.

[@Patrick-jj5nh]

@@mj.cutsense thank you for your response. actually have watched some YT videos since of people editing braw natively in premiere pro which is pretty good, even up to 6k - sure must be powerful machines but I think my one should be able to handle it tbh. although in most situations i would prefer prores still, maybe there ll be a prores raw firmware update some time. with your C70 whats your editing experience been like? ever had any playback issues? on any of the codecs? yea its true you do lose the full frame/bigger field of vision with 6k pro - though there is now an optical insert adapter by LucAdapters that will give you a near full frame field of view, worth investigating I suppose.

[@thedailydosage8360]

How do you shoot 120fps?

[@fostervf16]

He shoots it internally on the camera. They during playback from the camera he records the playback on the ninja.

[@Kam-og7ph]

I’m a bit confused. Dies this mean that if my camera only goes up to 4k 60 that if you record to the ATOMOS I can get 4k 120?

[@skrotfiske]

no, if your camera only does 4K 60fps then all you can get is 4K 60fps. The Atomos Ninja V can't change anything about your camera. His camera (Canon C70) can already record 4K 120fps and then he plays that back in camera in slowmotion already which the Atomos Ninja V can record. It won't be full 10-bit or a true 120fps recording either, it will only look like one. It's a faster way but not a better way. Transcoding the footage properly is a lot better than doing this because you won't get a 10-bit 120fps file but a 8-bit 24fps (or 25fps) file. Anyhow, you can't get 120fps using the Ninja V if your camera can't do 120fps.

With the way you explain this video. That's mean if I record 120fps from c70 and record 60fps from Ninja V. I will have a 240fps at 4K??? I think you dont understand that when you record your playback is mean you record the file which contained to H.264/H.265, not the signal from the sensor. So you can't get the better image quality than the file which you record in the body.

[@mj.cutsense]

I think you didn't understand at all. There is no single word about better quality or multiplication of framerates. C70 sends interpreted 25p signal via HDMI. Firstly, the signal is compressed to long-GOP, which means you only transcode the file to a more friendly codec. You should listen carefully and don't draw poisonous conclusions.
