For the best image processing results it is essential to match the NINJA V+ settings to the camera/input settings.

The information and settings on this page are identical to those in the Camera Output section in the Input menu on your NINJA V+. Refer to the Log/HDR section for more information on these settings.

MONITOR MODE

Select SDR or Log/HDR mode, depending on how you want to monitor the signal on your NINJA V+. When the input is set to Log/HDR, the input signal is displayed in it’s native form, which is usually a flat or washed out image. You can then choose to enable a LUT, which displays the input source with the selected user Custom 3D LUT.

Tap on the folder icon to access your media and select a LUT to upload. For more information on loading LUTs refer to the How to import LUTs to your NINJA V+: section.

LUT On Record

If this option is selected, your NINJA V+ will bake the LUT look into the recording. When enabled, a CUSTOM LOOK icon will flash in the top corner of the monitor and the LUT cannot be activated during recording to avoid any potential issues with the recorded content.

Baking a LUT into your recording cannot be undone in post-production, so we advise that you consider your workflow before the use of this option.

Baking the LUT into your recording is not supported when recording with the ProRes RAW codec.

LUT On Output

OUTPUT LOOK – With this option, the selected LOOK is also applied to the HDMI loop out of the NINJA V+. This will allow for instant preview on a larger monitor or to be used with a wireless sender. This function can also be combined with the down convert option that can be found in the input menu.

LUT Preview

During color management it’s likely that you may want to review a number of LOOKs and even compare them to the Native Video Source. Tapping the Compare option will apply a 50/50 vertical screen split that will show both the Natural Source Video and the selected LOOK of the LUT.
