I like this monitor alot, I got the 5.2 inch model but was a little disappointed on how small the screen is, the case is reasonably sized but the bezels at the edges of the screen make the screen look larger when it's off but then once you power it on, you get to see just how small it is. I feel like I should have gotten the 7 inch version 😅
Please do a comparison review with Osee G7 / Swit CM-S75F. They are the biggest rivals right now! :) In my opinion this Shinobi 7 is way to big. Bezels are crazy... :)
Agree 100%. G7 also has a v-lock plate and power cable included in the package, also way better focus peaking and higher brightness. Arguably better OS with no touch (a plus in my book). Not impressed with Shinobi 7 at all!
I was looking for a monitor and I wasn’t sure if I’d like the swit or the shinobi, I like the smallhd menu like, but no accessories for the swit and it’s less bright.. so I guess I’ll bue the shinobi! Thanks for the clear review :)
Hey thanks for the great video! Ended up buying the Shinobi 7 with a lot of confidence having watched it. I do however have one question. Have you actually gotten it to cross convert from SDI in to HDMI out? With my Red Komodo I can't seem to get the HDMI Output readout to ever show anything except "No Output" and that little red exclamation warning symbol. Do you have any idea what might be going on? Thanks in advance!
I'm in the same boat. Bought it to cross convert an SDI signal out of the ursa G2 to HDMI into a teradeck ace. I contacted ATOMOS and they told me my unit was faulty and the Australian distributor sent me a replacement unit. The new unit I received has the exact same problem, red exclamation ❗ error with no output. I reckon it's a software bug that they have yet to address.
Same problem here, bought a Shinobi 7 and the output module just don't work. Always shows no output. Was not able to cross convert from SDI to HDMI neither.
Could you possibly make a comparison to some of the smallhd monitor only offerings (703 and Cine 7/702 touch). Kinda dislike the atomos offerings although owned their monitors and recorders in the past. Thanks a lot
Great review and comparison to similar priced options but would have loved to see how it compare to the more expensive SmallHD 702 Touch/Cine 7. We don’t all live in London with options to visit your monitor wall.
Hey Gareth, seems like a few people would like to see it compared or here our thoughts on the Indie 7 so will add it to our idea list and maybe produce something if our schedule allows it! Thanks for watching, Jake
Hey everyone, my partner accidentally changed the view to cinematic mode where it covers the screen with borders I can’t figure out how to put it back to normal full view, can anyone help out with this ?
this will be a silly question i'm sure to most people but I am just starting to move to video work so all a bit new to me. Connecting a Nikon Z9 I was expecting to be able to view playback on the monitor without necessarily sending an HDMI out to a separate devise. this has been purchased second hand so need to download instructions. I really hope this can be achieved. at the moment playback of video will only work on my camera when I disconnect the unit.
How are you able to use this monitor with the Komodo? This is SDI 3g and the Komodo is SDI 12g. This has been my biggest question about this monitor. Is there a special SDI cable I need or does it just work?
Does the calibration work with the current firmware and atomos calibration tool? Did you test it? It’s not working for me. The tool can’t recognize the monitor. Atomos support said that the tool isn’t compatible with the unit yet. However, all my other atomos monitors are working with this setup.
I have a 5" Shinobi without sdi and it doesn't have a fan. Which is very problematic since it gets hot to the point where it's almost imposible to use the touchscreen. So glad I switched to the 7" Shinobi.
ive just bought shinobi 7,and i know the body is abs and the fan give some vibration to the plastic body. sometime on some movement and position, there is some ratling sound in the body , its minimal ratling and sometime constan and its very annoying. does someone occur same problem?
My friends, do you think Shinobi 7 is good monitor for FX6? Is it too big for FX6? By the way, have you seen what Atomos did with the 5-inch Shinobi SDI? I am so disappointed.
@@CVPTV I just saw that. You are so right! 👍Shinobi SDI version now costs $750. Isn't that crazy? How can Atomos advertise new products in such a cunning way…😐😐😐
@@CVPTV I'm back. I got my brand new Shinobi SDI yesterday from eBay. ($399) The result is, I beg Atomos to re-release Shinobi SDI. Because it's much more useful than the HDMI version.
I hope the camera control features come to more camera systems, since Atomos makes a much cleaner UI than most of the camera makers.
Can it control a canon c-200?

Strange that SmallHD wasn't mentioned in their list of competitors in this video. The SmallHD is the most obvious competitor of them all.
They don't have anything near that price.
Awesome. I do more run gun and wish they would still make the SDI version of the Shinobi 5”
I picked that one up in the beginning of 2020 and it's been so helpful to have that. Lucky me :D
You can still pick one up i got the Hdmi/Sdi version. Saw one on ebay cheap.

Subscribed. Love your videos. Keep posting videos this good and you'll grow your channel for sure.
Hmm, if this monitor didn't have those very thick bezels it would be a lot more convenient to use on smaller cameras.

Do you have any images of the shinobi 7 rigged up to the sony a7siii or similar cameras? Do you think its a doable size?
great overview❤

How long does it take to turn on/off? Is it 10-20 sec like the Shinobi 5"?
It's in the video - th-cam.com/video/gmzNko2fW9A/w-d-xo.html
@@CVPTV Just the part that I skipped over, but still pretty long and that's without the SD card in place I gather.
Thank you!
the small rig ones likely can't hold the weight. I've got a shogun7 and unless I keep it vertical the small rig monitor mounts can't hold it.
can we playback the footages on shinobi or shinobi 7 ?
Great review
wait does that mean that they are in talks with canon and sony to incorporate tap to focus via usb?
Does Atomos Shinobi have talli light?
Is a comparison to teh Indie 7 from Small rig possible?
Didn't know that the smaller Shiobis have a fan. I have the 5" SDI one and I don't think I can turn on a fan on that one
I have a 5" Shinobi without sdi and it doesn't have a fan. Which is very problematic since it gets hot to the point where it's almost imposible to use the touchscreen. So glad I switched to the 7" Shinobi.
Sorry it was the Ninja V that has a fan, not the Shinobi 5's you are correct!
@@wubbsy yeah it's a problem really. on mine the sdi porst get hot after about 15-20 mins of using the monitor, even with hdmi
Is this flicker (PWM) free in the same sense that Asus and LG advertise their computer monitors as flicker-free ?
ive just bought shinobi 7,and i know the body is abs and the fan give some vibration to the plastic body. sometime on some movement and position, there is some ratling sound in the body , its minimal ratling and sometime constan and its very annoying. does someone occur same problem?
How much
Can it camera control a canon c-200?
what did they do to the 5” sdi version??
They discontinued it :( Jake
Good product but I have hard time to understand the pricing.
How is that
how do i upload luts ?
Any plans for Komodo camera control?
Not that Atomos have said, would be awesome if they could though. Would be even better if the released a 5" version with it too! Jake
@@CVPTV Hopefully. Seems like it has everything the smallHD indie 7 has, other than komodo control, for half the price.
Can the monitor overlay be toggled off to allow the Komodo's overlay to be completely visible?
Im not near a Shinobi 7 currently, but from memory I believe you swipe down on the monitor to hide the UI. Jake
My friends, do you think Shinobi 7 is good monitor for FX6? Is it too big for FX6? By the way, have you seen what Atomos did with the 5-inch Shinobi SDI? I am so disappointed.
Personally, I think its a touch to big for the FX6. And yeah I mention it in the outro! Jake

Yes it could, Jake
