Display Atomos Ninja 13.2 cm 1920 x 1080 Touchscreen

The Atomos Ninja 13.2 cm 1920 x 1080 Touchscreen is a compact monitor-recorder designed for DSLR and mirrorless camera workflows. It features a 5.2-inch IPS touchscreen with a 1920 x 1080 resolution and supports video capture from a wide range of cameras, including RAW HDMI inputs up to 6K at 30 fps and video modes up to 3456p. The unit runs AtomOS 11 for improved responsiveness and user interface clarity, records industry-standard codecs such as Apple ProRes and ProRes RAW (activation may be required), and uses removable SSD storage for extended recording times. The housing combines ABS and aluminum for a balance of durability and lightweight handling, and the device is battery powered for on-location use.

Advantages

The Ninja offers a bright 1000-nit HDR-capable screen and an intuitive touchscreen interface that simplifies monitoring, framing and exposure checks outdoors and in dim environments. It provides a wide codec selection and the ability to capture higher-quality 4:2:2 or 10-bit signals from camera HDMI outputs, improving color fidelity and post-production flexibility. Compact construction with anti-rotation mount points and removable SSD compatibility support both handheld and rigged setups, while AtomOS 11 adds exposure tools such as EL Zone and ARRI colorized displays for consistent, industry-standard exposure assessment.
