Pros and cons

According to our field recorder expert

  • Thanks to the high 1500-nit brightness, you can even watch clear footage in the sun.
  • You can record footage for an entire day without charging thanks to the long battery life.
  • Via the screen, you can adjust the lighting settings of your camera.
  • You can't control Nikon, Fujifilm, and OM System cameras via the screen.

Description

The Atomos Shinobi II is a compact field recorder on which you can watch your video footage live. Place the 5-inch screen on top of your camera. That way, you can easily watch the footage with multiple people. It has a high 1500-nit brightness, so you can even watch clear footage in the sun. That's useful if you often record videos outside. Thanks to the long battery life, you can use the screen for an entire day. This means you don't have to charge it on a recording day. You can adjust the lighting settings of your camera via the touchscreen of the field recorder. Adjust the white balance or the aperture while you're recording, for example. This function only works with Canon, Sony, and Panasonic cameras.

Perfect monitor for your lightweight rig

  • Lightweight
  • High brightness
  • Compatible with a wide range of cameras
  • UI is a bit cluttered

Very nice product when updated to the latest firmware.

Review is 8,5 out of 10.

Ideal for operating your camera from a different perspective

  • Ideal for controlling the camera (depending on camera type)
  • Touch-to-focus (depending on your camera type)
  • Good clear image
  • It's a shame there's no sun hood included. It's a plus, though, because it also serves as protection when folded up in your bag.

Easy to use, delivers good image quality and allows me to control and focus my camera.
