The New Atomos Shinobi 7 is here. Atomos announced the new brighter monitor-only Atomos Shinobi 7. If you haven’t figured out what the “7” stands for – let me explain – the Atomos Shinobi 7 is a 7″ monitor.
The New Shinobi 7
Shinobi 7 is a bigger and brighter monitor that takes the foundations of the original Shinobi to new heights. With a calibrated peak brightness of 2200Nits, the Shinobi 7 can tackle the brightest of environments without the need for a sun hood or the need to convert Log inputs for HDR monitoring.
With the big, bright, and beautiful, lightweight display, the configuration options are endless, providing an ideal director’s or focus puller’s monitor, program, or preview display for video switchers and the perfect view for vloggers presenting to the camera. Brighter monitors make it easy to use them in many different settings.
Camera controls
Control your camera by using the touch screen on the Shinobi 7; Atomos designed the touch screen to give you fast access to the most crucial camera features. Focus on the image and make adjustments of iris, white balance, shutter angle, and ND. With the optional Atomos USB-C to serial cable, support is available out the box for the Z Cam E2 series camera, providing direct control of all the menu configurations. The additional USB and RJ45 control ports on the Shinobi 7 also provide support for future developments, as more options are added for touch screen camera control
HDR in the field
The Shinobi 7 screen displays a stunning 10+ stops of dynamic range in realtime from Log/PQ/HLG signals. Combined with our unique HDR monitoring features, the Shinobi 7 simplifies the complexities of shooting Log and HDR, helping you to replicate post-production workflows at the moment when it matters most – during your shoot. With Adaptive Cooling, you can also prioritize reduced fan noise or the display’s peak brightness, allowing you to choose between a brighter image on the Shinobi 7 or reduced fan noise.
Built-in 3D LUT box
In addition to Log to HDR conversions, you can also use your own custom 3D LUT to feed downstream to other devices or live feed. Load up to eight custom LUTs at any time via the SD Card Slot and instantly select between them, maintaining creative intent at all times.
Continuous Power
The dual battery slots will allow shooters to easily hot-swap batteries during your shoot and never be caught without power, as the dual slots combined will enable you to run all day. The dedicated locking DC jack input allows you to connect to mains power on-set and can also be used with the optional DC to D-TAP cable for power in the field from V-lock batteries.
With Atomos’ new Analysis feature, you can now simultaneously see what you are shooting, view a waveform, histogram, and vectorscope, ensuring complete control of your image.
