Ninja Phone is a unique new device that works with the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max to combine the benefits of high-quality mirrorless or DSLR cameras with the flexibility of the world’s most advanced phone. Together this gives creators the ability to monitor HDR on the best display on the planet, with zero latency from their camera to the iPhone’s screen. Plus, benefit from access to all of their iPhone’s connectivity to social media platforms, collaborative workflows, and more! There’s never been a more powerful video production system with such a small footprint.
Ninja Phone encodes to high quality ProRes by taking the 10-bit 4:2:2 image from the camera sensor via HDMI and sending it directly to the iPhone 15 Pro/15 Pro Max screen where users have full control over the image and access to the powerful suite of Atomos monitoring tools. Thanks to the iPhone 15’s amazing retina OLED panel, when combined with Ninja Phone HDR monitoring becomes a reality, giving users a true representation of what the camera is capturing and more control over their content on set. User can also choose whether to stream, collaborate or record directly from the app.

Professionals demand 10-bit, because it shows accurate colours and removes contours between similar colours - so a blue sky looks real, and not like a painting-by-numbers picture. With 8-bit 4:2:0, you’re throwing away the subtlety and nuance, often leaving visible steps. You can’t repair that. Atomos solve this problem by not causing it in the first place.
