CP+, Yokohama, Japan – 26th February 2026: Atomos today announces the launch of Ninja RAW, a 5-inch HDR monitor-recorder designed to give filmmakers, content creators, and broadcasters an uncompromising and affordable tool for high-quality acquisition and precise on-set monitoring. This latest addition to the next-gen Ninja range can be seen on the Nextorage booth (booth number 22) at the CP+ exhibition in Japan.
At the heart of Ninja RAW is a stunning 1500-nit, super-bright 5-inch HDR touchscreen, delivering exceptional visibility in both studio and outdoor environments. Built for professional workflows, Ninja RAW records over HDMI directly from the camera sensor in Apple ProRes and ProRes RAW to CFexpress Type B media or external USB-C storage, providing fast, reliable capture with maximum image quality and post-production flexibility.
“Ninja RAW is our most affordable, next-generation monitor-recorder, designed for creators who demand uncompromising image quality, absolute control, and complete mobility,” said Peter Barber, CEO of Atomos. “By combining a super-bright HDR display, direct ProRes RAW recording, and professional monitoring tools in a compact and portable form factor, Ninja RAW gives filmmakers the power to capture exactly what their cameras see, wherever the story takes them.”
Ninja RAW supports a wide range of professional codecs, including ProRes RAW, ProRes RAW HQ, ProRes LT, ProRes 422, and ProRes 422 HQ, ensuring perfect integration with all leading NLEs such as DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, Apple Final Cut Pro, and Avid Media Composer.
Designed to be a monitor, recorder and production hub, Ninja RAW offers USB-C camera control over key parameters including start/stop, ISO, shutter, aperture, and white balance for supported cameras. A comprehensive suite of monitoring tools is built in, featuring EL Zone™ false color, waveform, focus peaking, vectorscope, and more, allowing crews to make confident exposure and focus decisions on set.
Exclusive creative tools further enhance on-set efficiency, including Onion Skin overlay, enabling frame-to-frame comparison and precise shot alignment for VFX, animation, and continuity-critical work.
Connectivity and workflow flexibility are expanded with dual USB-C ports for external storage or optional network adaptors (sold separately), while the unit’s rugged, production-ready design ensures reliability in demanding real-world environments.
Despite its professional power, Ninja RAW remains highly portable. It can be powered by NP-F batteries, USB-C power banks, or a DC adaptor, making it ideal for everything from studio shoots to run-and-gun field production.
With its combination of cutting-edge ProRes RAW recording, advanced monitoring, camera control, and a compact, ultra-bright form factor, Atomos Ninja RAW sets a new standard for mobile, high-performance monitor-recorders.
