I attached the Blade plus a H2S converter to the Pocket.

with one battery I only could use it as a monitor, recording did not work at all.
With two batteries I could start recording but only by record start/stop at
the Blade. Did anybody manage to get camera trigger working?


I found this question at bmcuser and it's interesting because I was thinking
of buying a Atomos Blade too. It has a nice display with vectorscope plus
audio meters.
Will it be possible to record RAW on the Blade?
Shouldn't it be fast enough if a SD Card is fast enough to record RAW?

Hi, I have the Ninja2 which I hook up to my BMPCC but it's strictly 10bit ProRes - a match for the internal option. I will eventually (when it's warranted), simultaneously record raw internally and capture ProRes externally, fingers crossed:). As far as I understand it the Samurai Blade offers the same record options as the Ninja (ProRes or Avid DNxHD but no raw capability) but with the benefit of the scopes/meters and higher ppi monitor.

do you manage to record simultaneously on SD card and to the Ninja in ProRes?

Yes, till I realised it was a pointless waste of battery power in the bmpcc and the ninja has 750gb of storage;)
