Old post but exactly the issue I am having. TY!
@@rommel5241 glad it helped you out. My cable is still going strong!
Hello sir, great video, really interesting. I wonder if I might ask a question to see if you might be able to offer any advice. I recently purchased a second hand Ninja Inferno 7” and the monitor appears to have the same issue you discuss in the video. I am currently using quite an old Sony camera (HVR Z5E) with an HDMI output. It can output 1080 25p externally and this is recognised by the Ninja Inferno. I am using an Atomos Pro Video HDMI cable, but I am still getting small drop outs. The drop outs occur either during recording or when I am just monitoring. I have played around with the HDMI input settings but the problem persists. Any ideas? Also, The SSD which I got with the Inferno is a Samsung 850 Pro. When I record, it captures the video, but creates a new file, when the cut out occurs. it is also displaying the SKIPPY sign (which I have now researched) and I have been reading about compatible SSDs. Any idea if this SSD is good enough for the Ninja Inferno and any recommendations for a better SSD. Thanks in advance.
Here’s a tip: don’t use the back of your axe to pound your stakes into the ground. The back of your axe is not hardened to do that, which will damage/break the axe. Only do if it’s hardened; otherwise, use a mallet or hammer. Something I learned over the years.
Kondor Blue is junk made in China but the very best is the ZILR I’ve been using for a very long time it is pricy but it does the job ! Kondor Blue thinks they are the top of the line they are only pricy for real junk I’ve placed last year my first order talking to Jeffrey thinking it is made in the USA and I’ve told him that it it turned to be junk from China so I stopped placing orders with them . But I highly recommend the ZILR CABLE
Thank you for the added recommendation! Yes, the ZILR stuff has way tighter tolerances, even in the HDMI port - very impressed by their quality. I'm just glad it works as advertised, which seems to be harder to find in products these days.
Great video. This helped me a lot ❤
I'm so glad! I'm working on my next Snow Peak video, coming soon-ish :)
Maybe its coil problem?
You are limited to 4K with the micro hd cable. There is only an hdmi to hdmi 2.1 version but then you have to get an adapter, and will the adapter ruin the link?
My A1 has a full sized HDMI port. In my experience, any adaptor I've used (I've tried an L-shaped adapter to help relieve the strain), was a point of failure. I do not recommend adaptors (unless it's very specifically stated to work as an HDMI 2.1 or something) since they're usually bunk compared to a nice cable.
What about the 6K? proRes?
I use a Sony A1, I've never shot in or tried 6K on it. Sorry!
This review helped me to get a good idea of this tent. None of the pictures online did it justice. Thanks!
I’ve been looking for a reliable long non-coiled cable, thanks!
Imagine my excitement when I found this video. Eureka! I have been having this input drop out issue since I purchased the Ninja V. I am trying to use it with my Sony HVR-V1U camcorder. I know it can be done becasue I've seen CZcams videos posted with the Ninja V and V1U setup. So, I ordered the cable you recommended. In fact, I was so excited I ordered two! I'm sure you can imagine my disappointment when the dropouts were just as bad with the new cables. I have over $1,000 into the Ninja along with 12 different sets of cables - all of which are no better than another regardless of whether they cost $5 or $35. I have a setup that won't do anything that I need. It wight as well be a boat anchor. Any thoughts?
Oh no! That really sucks, I'm sorry to hear that. I'm not 100% sure how it works with the V since I have the V+. And since the V+ can do 8K, I don't know if they changed the HDMI spec from the V to handle a larger bandwidth. My suggestion might be to actually be to upgrade the Ninja? Any firmware updates that were missed? Are you sure the youtube example with the Sony cam was using the same codec/bitrate as you? Just some ideas off the top of my head. I know that Sony can just be really picky with recording media + bitrate combinations. Even my A1 won't record 4K120p unless I have the correct SD/CFexpress card inside it.
Thanks, Dan, for the response. I have the latest firmware update. I have also tried several other recommended cables with the same result, including the very expensive Blue Condor Gerald Undone Mk2 cable. That cable was worse than most of the other ones I purchased! I have tried every recording setting on the Ninja V with every cable and with or without the SSD card installed. The drop out issues are the same. Early this morning I reached out to the person who posted the video of their kids using the HVR-V1U and the Ninja V. I asked what HDMI he's using and what settings he has on both units. Hopefully, he has some advice. Defective unit?@@DiscoverwithDan
Thanks for the update. It could very well be defective or the information not accurate about it's compatibility with the Ninja V. I also have that blue Kondor Blue cable and thought the build quality was subpar. The Cable ends don't sit very well with the ports - mine were a little loose. I hope the compatibility issue gets figured out for you!@@jeffbone7100
Great review, thanks for sharing this. I'm just starting to look into this model because the price is incredible compared to similar designs by Hilleberg. One question, do the instructions tell you that you have to unclip the inner tent when packing it up, or can you leave it attached? The best feature about these suspended inner tent designs is that you can leave the outer fly attached and pitch it as one which keeps the inside dry in bad weather. It would also save you considerable time during setup and takedown if you leave the inner attached, and it should also help with the initial tension when pitching.
Hello and thanks for the question! I do think the value for what you get is incredible, the only lacking element being the tent stakes. But that's easily upgradeable. In warmer weather, it does lack a bit of airflow but if you're camping in colder climates, that might not be a bad thing. I wouldn't leave the inner tent attached because it would be pretty hard to fold up. The way the outer structure is made, it's with a high tension rod, so i imagine that would make it difficult. Certainly worth a try though since the benefits of it working sounds awesome. I hate dealing with a wet mold tent.

thank you for what I found one of the most comprehensive review of a tent!
Fantastic! Thank you for your feedback.
Thanks Dan! Just got the a7R V and was searching on Google for this. You must be doing something right with the content & SEO ;) sub'd!
Hey there! Glad you found it helpful! I honestly just got tired of trying so many bad cables, I just thought this would be helpful for anyone who happened to stumble upon it. Stoked for you!
im 1 minute in and I can already tell you this is the best video review on this tent on CZcams!
Thanks for the encouragement! Will continue to try and make more.
Good detailed breakdown of the pros and cons of this particular tent. Keep going, and you'll gather more subscribers and commentators.
Appreciate the feedback! Thank you
Thanks for the video! May i ask why my V+ get No signal when i change my A1 HDMI output to 4320p ??? Please help. I use brand new Verbatim 10k cables.
Glad you found it helpful! The V+ is only capable of 4K60p from the Sony A1. 8K is not supported. You have to record that to the internal CF card.
No luck 😢 I ordered the ZILR cable anyway, thanks again for the demonstration.
@@MrMotormok You got it! Those cables have been serving me well without a glitch since I've posted this video. I hope it does the same for you.
Hello, are atomos ninja v ninja ultra and shogun ultra monitors compatible with HDMI 2.1 cable? I want to use them for raw recording.
Sure, but if you're shooting Sony, no raw is supported. HDMI 2.1 cables can be backwards compatible with HDMI 2.0
Great video Dan!
Thanks Austin!
Great video! I use a Shinobi and my false colors are inaccurate - they do not show red even when I severely overexpose an image. Could this be a cable issue? Thanks!
Hm, I don't think it's a cable issue, though you can't say for certain. Have you tried updating the firmware?
I figured it out, I had to apply a Color Space Transform LUT in camera and send it over the HDMI output to the monitor. Thanks!
Thanks for posting the solution here! I hope this helps someone else in your position!@@BenPhanStudios
Did you camp on BLM land or was that an actual camp site?! Looks amazing
It was a random family owned campsite that was very dispersed and empty. About 30-45 min from Zion's entrance. It was quite peaceful actually!
Awesome video! I loved how thorough you were and I don’t really find many walkthrough videos of outdoor gear like this. Snow Peak is such an awesome company. I have the Land Breeze Pro 3 and I’m absolutely in love with it. Definitely an all season tent with all of the ventilation and ability to close them from within when the weather turns.
Appreciate you taking the time to watch! I have their alpha breeze tent to review next. Glad you're enjoying their stuff, we love them!
i used the evo gimbals cable and it was cutting out on my first shoot. very disappointing
Feels pretty bad to have your multi thousand dollar kit go bunk due to a $10 cable! Sorry to hear that.
@@DiscoverwithDan 60fps 4k was the culprit.
You have to carry large nails (such as used to hang gutters) for use in pitching a car camping tent in hard soil. Almost no new tent comes with stakes that will work in ground that is hard. You can also pick up army surplus aluminum stakes online or at surplus stores for a bombproof set up. thanks for the video.
WEeve been using my impact drill + lag bolts and they drill into hard soil in half a second! Really easy and actually less noisy.
I’m seeing all the 1tb t5 ssd are $300!! Did the prices go way up?
Idk why. But Get the T7 it's cheaper and better.
I think they're discontinued so they're more expensive for some reason. Get 870 EVO version.
Would this cable work for the Lumix S5IIX for 4K 60 recording on a Ninja V?
Great video and commentary. Happy to have found this channel. Excellently presented in a simple way with nuanced thoughts and suggestions.
Thank you for the kind words!
Nice review buddy. I agree re the stakes I have the same with my amenity dome. Snowpeak do sell really good upgrades though which I’ve purchased. Used the tent is horrendous rain this weekend and it held up great but had some leakage through the floor. Otherwise it’s been great. I’m currently trying to sort via warranty with retailer and Snowpeak so will be interesting to see if they live up to their reputation in that respect.
Shame they dont have a 5m one. I moved from Ninja V to Ninja V plus and having so much issue with trying to get a signal stable. Even with supposed 4k 60hz 18gbps
Yeah, it's a major PITA. Makes me wish for SDI.
I can't take the inner piece out, it's impossible
Oh man, I saw in another video you should use that tool that it comes with the tamper, you use it in that little hole and then just unscrew the top, it's so easy, and your video completely jumps that part, your video sucks
5:20 I like the music about a Space Shuttle.
Well i just ordered 2 Atomos mini to full cables. At least i wont have to wonder but that is way too expensive. Hopefully they last
do u use a cage? if so, which brand? for example, my atmos cable isnt compatible with tilta cage cable clamps.
Thank you, useful video. For future ones could demonstrate size a bit more perhaps eg by both lieing down/showing beds inside with bags etc
Will do, great suggestion!
I have the "no input" problem with the Atomos Shinobi 7 , while connecting Hdmi, I've tried many standard cables, but all lose signal. I thought the problem is in the hdmi socket in the monitor. I will try
Hope that solves your problem!
Very informative video! Thanks for sharing!👍
my pleasure, thanks for watching!
Is this the same as the E&B nanoquartz coated? I've just bought mine a few days ago but I'm still unable to dial as good as the previous DVG I used before. Seems like the coating makes the coffee to flow out of the basket in a more dispersed way. Any suggestion? Thanks.
Well presented product demonstration. Thanks Dan!!
What about 4K dci?
Can't say I shoot much in DCI, but from their website, the atomos supports it and the tiny bump in resolution shouldn't affect performance of the cable that much. can't say for sure though, I have to test for it.
Love your boots! May I ask what boots?
hey Eric! they are an old discontinued set of Sorels! I've since worn through them and tossed them.... I've been on a pair of Cole Haan hiking boots lately and they've been excellent!
Can you do 4k 23.976 as well not the atomos
hm let me check on that and get back to you.
Did you push down to the first hole or second when adjusting the depth?
May I know what’s the model number for this basket?
Hello. I am hoping you can assist me with an issue with my recently purchased NINJA V. I shoot with the PANA GH-6. I am also shooting PRO RES on both devices, When I download the NINJA files it shows as MOV. I have contacted ATOMOS and awaiting their response. Can you advise me what if anything I am doing wrong?
Yes, I believe ProRes = Apple = .mov. If you want .mp4, you have to shoot in another codec like h.264 or h.265
I have an A7siii and I Just bought a Tilta Cage with HDMI extension cable, so doesn’t work? I don’t really understood this part . Tks a lot. I will buy the 2.1 ZILR cable any way
Hi Felipe, yes I tested the HDMI extension by Tilta. It did not work even with my new found cables and it's a weakpoint in the chain. I originally got it since I could secure it against the cage and prevent accidental disconnections, but sadly the cable seemed like it was not in spec - at least for the A1 and the higher bandwidth codecs/resolutions/framerates. I've since switched to Kondor Blues cage for better ergonomics. Please update us if you find a workaround!
@@DiscoverwithDan tks for the answer bro. Yeah, I'll teste when everything is arrived and let's see. I'll let you know the result. Tks a lot
@@felipejulian did it work?
hey Dan, I was looking all over the internet for a good cable and came across this video, I ordered it and I'm more than super happy with it, soooo affordable and works fantastic, its a long enough cable and super light weight. thank you!!!
Glad you can benefit from my experiments and failures. They're been rock solid for me so far!
Thank you for this video!!!!!
you're so welcome!
@disover with Dan I am unable to record 4k 120p on Ninja Atomos with Sony A1
Yes, unfortunately, the only way to get 120fps is to record to the expensive cf cards internally :(
@@DiscoverwithDan Well then why does the NinjaV+ record 4K120?
Just because it can, doesn't mean that it's supported in combination the Sony A1. Sony might have HDMI limitations. Or for example, you can only record RAW with Canon cameras, not Sony. They probably having licensing agreements.
Should the basket be completely flush or is very slightly raised okay? Seems to be down all the way but slight gap.
I think a gap is fine. Mine sits pretty flush. As long as your group head is making a good seal & pressure with the basket, I think you're ok.
can you do the same thing with Samsung T7 SSD?
