The Ninja Phone Video Co-Processor from Atomos is a 10-bit video co-processor for smartphones and tablets that lets you record from professional cameras via HDMI. Designed to take advantage of the iPhone 15 Pro, 15 Pro Max and their OLED display, Ninja Phone allows you to encode an HDMI signal to ProRes or H.265. Encoded video is sent via a USB-C output to your iPhone's USB-C input, where its A17 SoC processor decodes the signal and displays it on your iPhone's screen, which has a 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio and supports Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG. It can also display 11 stops of dynamic range with a maximum brightness of 1600 nits. ProRes encoded video can be stored on your iPhone as a .mov file and/or simultaneously transcoded to 10-bit H.265 for workflows that include camera to cloud or live streaming using the iPhone's 5G and Wi-Fi 6E connectivity.
You'll also be able to take advantage of external iPhone accessories using a separate USB-C port that lets you work with microphones and other third-party accessories. Power is supplied by NP series batteries, a battery eliminator or a USB-C 5V/3A input. When one of these power sources is used, Ninja Phone will also charge your phone and any connected accessories, helping to ensure longer operating times.
The Ninja Phone iPhone app, available as a free download, makes it easy to control and coordinate both the Ninja Phone and your iPhone. It also allows social media creators to shoot in 16:9 horizontal or 9:16 portrait mode and is available for iOS and iPadOS.
Please note that a Ninja case for iPhone 15 Pro or Pro Max is required for use.
