Atomos Firmware v10.54 adds Sony a7S III Raw Recording to Ninja V Recording Monitor

Atomos Firmware v10.54 adds Sony a7S III Raw Recording to Ninja V

Atomos Firmware version 10.54 update allows the Ninja V Recording Monitor to record the 16-bit linear raw video from the a7S III as a 12-bit log ProRes RAW file using a visually lossless process. Capturing the footage in 4.2K resolution, the recorder offers an uncropped mode that will record the full 4264 x 2408 resolution at up to 59.94p or a cropped metadata mode at 4240 x 2385 that more closely matches footage recorded internally to the camera.

Available Functions:

ProRes RAW Recording: – 4.2k
• Uncropped metadata mode 4264 x 2408 at 23.98p, 25p, 29.97p, 50p, 59.94p • Cropped metadata mode 4240 x 2385 at 23.98p, 25p, 29.97p, 50p, 59.94p
The Metadata crop provides a simple way to transform the RAW data to a 16:9 aspect ratio that closely represents the internally recorded 4K UHD files.
– 12bit Log
• 16bit linear converted to 12bit Log (visually lossless process)

Sony a7S III Atomos Ninja V Raw Support

Known Limitations

Sony Alpha 7S III:
• Larger recordings on a 2TB SSD may occasionally not play back correctly on the Ninja V. This is related to playback on the Ninja V only and the recorded file is unaffected.
• Ninja V may not recommence recording automatically when momentarily losing video signal lock due to a faulty cable connection.
• White Balance and ISO adjustments are currently not available in Final Cut Pro X – Update in future firmware release for both camera and Ninja V

General:
• RAW to HDR HDMI output – PQ / HDR10 output conversion may appear slightly incorrect.
Fixes
• Fixed an issue where 3D LUTs may not display correctly when switching to Playback mode to view recordings in 10-bit 422 video.
