Not to put a damper on this whole thread, but does anyone know anything about Atomos.com? Trade show, previous purchase, anything?

Since they are a new company and the NINJA is on pre order "interest" basis, there are no previous purchases. MacVideo did a tradeshow interview with them and they seem to be on the trade show trail with working units 'worldwide'.

Perrones point is valid in the sense that any proprietary recording format/device will impair hand-off. However there is always the native recording format (tape, CF, SxS, P2, whathaveyou) for those situations.

The NINJA and its ilk are trying to improve workflow by making it easy to import recordings into your workflow and standardizing on a format. That would require every camera to have the same device to record to. How that might happen? Well not by every shooter just happening to bring the same device to a shoot.

The NINJA being HDMI-in only is a bit 'unprofessional', but I say just add a HI5 to the back of it to get HD-SDI in.
