Atomos Ninja Phone
Description
Today’s smartphones are technological marvels, with amazing displays, cutting-edge Wi-Fi 6E and 5G connectivity. But how do you connect your pro camera? With Ninja Phone! Attach it to a compatible smartphone, plug in an HDMI-equipped camera, install the app, and you’re Ninja’d up and ready to go!
How does it work?
Ninja Phone takes any HDMI video signal and instantaneously converts it into a high-quality video file format. This video data is then transferred in real-time to USB-C equipped smartphones and tablets, turning them into professional low-latency video monitors, recorders, and live streamers.
It’s ideal for professional filmmakers, social media content creators, and a wide range of applications like gaming where you need to record or stream a video source without a computer. It also sets you up for hyper-efficient camera-to-cloud workflows.
Make your phone display a pro video monitor
Turn your smartphone into a top-notch HDR monitor. Connect your camera, and you have access to some of the world’s best portable displays. Atomos’ Ninja Phone app adds a host of professional monitoring tools and even adapts to vertical orientation. Today’s smartphone displays are incredible OLED devices with extraordinary 2,000,000:1 contrast ratios, 460ppi resolution and, with Ninja Phone, the ability to display the output from any HDMI-equipped camera.
Capture 10-bit video from any HDMI camera
Ninja Phone is the only way to connect professional cameras with HDMI to a compatible smartphone and record directly into 10-bit Apple ProRes*, the absolute standard for professional video production and post-production, or 10-bit H.265.
*iPhone only
Stunning, 10-bit, HDR pipeline
Atomos uses its unparalleled experience in video encoding to pass 10-bit, 1080p or 4k HDR video from your camera’s image sensor over HDMI to Ninja Phone, then through USB-C to your smartphone or tablet’s processor. The result is stunning, professional-quality images on your device’s incredible screen, with virtually no latency.
10-bit video preserves massively more picture information, both in terms of color and brightness, than 8-bit formats. The number of colors goes from millions to billions and the detail within the brightness range – the highlights and shadows in the image – is more than 4 times that of 8-bit.
Today’s camera sensors all capture more than 10-bit, and all modern TVs, smartphones and tablets have advanced 10-bit HDR screens too, so with Ninja Phone you can deliver the best possible video quality on every shoot!
