ATOMOS NINJA V RECORDER SETUP
The LUTs are compatible with external monitors and recorders which use the 33x33x33
cube format.
One issue which arises with using the camera’s HDMI output is that it sometimes feeds the
wrong levels the device is expecting. Using the Atomos Ninja V (with firmware 10.5+) as a
guide, set the Legalize function as per the table below to correct this. Make sure you
DON’T have a viewing LUT active when setting this up, otherwise your Legalize setting will
be greyed out and unavailable to change. To ensure your externally recorded clips match
both on screen and in post, have the Pro III LUTs applied and active in the Ninja V.

Advisory only numbers! ETTR should be the main method used for exposure. 18% grey is based on 42 IRE as standard
and skin tone is based on the 70-75 IRE range.
DAVINCI RESOLVE CLIP ATTRIBUTES FOR ATOMOS NINJA V FOOTAGE

recorder, there exists the ability to adjust the Data Levels of the externally recorded
footage between Full and Video using Clip Attributes. The following table lists what should
be set for each profile to have the LUT work properly.
