Ich nutze die Samsung 860 Pro (1000 GB, 2.5") und 4k 60p klappt damit wunderbar. Atomos hat selbst eine Seite dazu: https://www.atomos.com/compatible-drives?product=ninja-v
You can also install a Samsung 870 Evo in an Atomos Master Caddy 2, it's even cheaper and much easier (put it in and screw it shut) but both are not Atomos approved, they would need e.g. a Samsung 860 Pro, also not much more expensive and works then too...
We had a change of supplier at the beginning of December and availability is also rather difficult. As a result, our purchasing conditions are also increasing massively, which is reflected in the sales price.
I think the normal ninja v is good enough for the a7iii.
If you want to record 4k 120fps with another camera in the future, you'll need the v+.
But for those rare cases you can also record to the SD card. So the basic version is usually enough.
As Atomos mentioned, the Ninja can probably record any HDMI signal (I have only tested with Sony a6300, A7III, Canon). The question is what do you want to achieve with it? The only difference is 4.2.2 instead of 4.2.0 croma sampling (as with the A7III) and less compression through ProRes but still only 8 bit. So you will hardly notice anything in the image quality. However, the Ninja is also a good monitor...
I don't know the Sony but I know that my camera is limited to 30 minutes of recording which is not the case with the Ninja and that I can record in 10 bit...... and soon in row it will be great
But you have to know that the ninja v is sold without battery, memory card and without cables which makes the bill rise very quickly.
Hi
It needs at least a 2.5 ssd. With 1080, a normal HD is also sufficient, but can be a problem under certain circumstances because of the rotating parts. For the SSD you need a caddy, but there is one included. Atomos uses SSDs because the file size with the codecs is much larger.
I admire your work very much, everything often goes well. However, it is not easy for me to say that I think you are often very "loose" with the prices. As an example, I'll take the Atomos Ninja V. Yesterday, 28.7.2020, it didn't cost CHF 600 in the morning. In the afternoon Sony presented the new a7SIII and when they told us that you can shoot 4k 60p 4:2:2 RAW but you need an Atomos Ninja V for that, the price rose rapidly to CHF 728. Marketing? Possibly. Please take this point as a small criticism, otherwise I am very satisfied with the work of all Digitec branches :)
