Atomos Unveils Shinobi 7 RX
The 7” HDR monitor includes the camera-control and touch-to-focus functionality of Shinobi II, plus wireless video monitoring.
The Atomos Shinobi 7 RX is a 7" 2,200nit HDR monitor that can serve as a director’s monitor, a focus puller’s monitor, and a program or preview display for video switchers. The solution is a redesign of the Shinobi 7 that includes the camera-control and touch-to-focus functionality of Shinobi II, plus wireless video monitoring.
The Shinobi 7 RX controls a host of Canon, Fujifilm, Nikon, Panasonic and Sony cameras over USB-C, and Z Cam E2 models through a separate serial cable. The camera-control interface has been designed with a focus on common settings that need to be adjusted on a shot-by-shot basis. The Shinobi 7 RX has sliders for adjusting lens aperture, shutter speed and ISO, enabling perfect exposure on the 2,200nit HDR monitor, especially when used in combination with Atomos monitoring tools such as EL Zone/Arri false color, histogram, waveform, zebra, focus peaking and zoom.
The addition of Wi-Fi connectivity provides a stable link between the Shinobi 7 RX and the TX component of Atomos’ TX-RX wireless-video system, or an RTSP H.264 stream. Atomos TX-RX delivers low-latency (less than 60ms) HD-SDI and 4K HDMI video transmission for wireless on-set monitoring over distances up to 1,000'.
The Atomos Shinobi 7 RX lists for $699 but will cost $799 in the U.S. due to import tariffs. It will begin shipping in late October.
