Atomos AtomX SYNC module for Ninja V brings time code synchronization via radio

[10:37 Wed,6.May 2020 by Thomas Richter]

Atomos now ships the Atomos AtomX SYNC module for its compact 5" 4K60p monitor/recorder Ninja V. The AtomX module gives the Ninja V and the camera connected to it via HDMI the ability to synchronize the time code with other cameras via radio with a range of up to 200 meters.

In addition, further devices can be synchronized and integrated into the system via Bluetooth at distances of 10-15 meters. On iPhone and iPad this works with apps like Apogee&s MetaRecorder audio recorder, Mavis Pro camera and MovieSlate8 logging. Also compatible are professional audio recorders like Zoom F6 and Zoom F8n.

Several Ninja V recorders can be synchronized and remotely controlled via AtomX Sync modules in the same network, for example during multi-cam shootings - using technology from Timecode Systems. The AtomX SYNC module adds broadcast level standards to any camera connected to the Ninja V via HDMI and enables the easy integration of large format consumer cameras into traditional live productions. The remote control works by using one Ninja V which acts as master for the others.

The AtomX SYNC module is clamped between the Ninja V and the battery using the AtomX expansion system. With a small battery inside, it also functions as a hot-swap permanent battery extension that allows the Ninja V to operate for about 5 minutes while the main battery is changed.

Very handy is the new function of automatic calibration of analog audio from an external source via the microphone input of the Ninja V with the video recorded via HDMI. It determines the difference between the embedded HDMI audio and the external audio input for each specific camera setup. The calibration process takes less than 2 seconds, after which both sources are lip-synced.
