LaCie SSD Pro is a Thunderbolt 3, but it is compatible with thunderbolt 4 / USB 4.0 devices. However there will be no speed difference. Technically Thunderbolt 4 was was made for docking and hubbing solutions, so if you are not planning to use them, thunderbolt 4 does note make any difference.

Rugged SSD Pro comes in black, Rugged SSD comes in orange

I agree. I’m not bothered enough not to get it, but it’s time Lacie came out with a variety of colours and denoted the regular from the Pro in a different way. The silicone outer could simply be stamped with PRO. Or have something shiny on the outside.

I think the transfer speed and loss protection make up for the price if the specs aren’t enough for u

@@mallyjockson SanDisk professional G40 beats the LaCie SSD rugged pro not just in speed but also in ruggedness and construction. I like LaCie don't get me wrong, they are overpriced. I own several of each brand but lately I've been steering towards the professional SSD line of SanDisk. The new blade system is great .

It is usually better to do it on the software level anyway.

Why is that?@@Ikouy

@@lucasnoritomi-hartwig3928 Hardware level encryption sometimes comes across as a door. Many times, in the case of select SSDs, all one would need to do is remove the hinges off the doors and get in as many hardware solutions simply tell the drive to unlock rather than a handshake. Bitlocker has a similar issue in which the TPM can be overruled and the door just popped open without the key. Software level, such as Bitlocker on a USB drive, tends to rely on a phrase or other method that can't be stored. Like my SD card I have Bitlocker on to enable it I have to use a phrase to unlock it.

We can recommend the ZILR High-Speed HDMI cables as they have 4K 60p and RAW capable cables that will handle the 8K RAW output from the R5 to your Ninja+. They offer two lengths of the required full-size HDMI to micro (D) HDMI cable, a 45cm (part no. ZRHAD01) and a 1m (part no. ZRHAD02). ZILR cables feature secure cable connectors and are hyper-thin and lightweight/flexible.

@@GlobalDistribution cool, thank you!!!

Unfortunately due to the security technology featured in the ArmorLock if you have not been granted access via an original user/setup then without the recovery key it is impossible to reset the unit for reconfiguration. You could try contacting support Western Digital in case anything has changed, but they will most likely confirm it's impossible to reset without the recovery key information.

bump this question

Hi Arnaud - good question! The Rugged Boss is sadly no longer available, but the battery isn't user accessible. For anyone who already has a Rugged Boss the best thing to do would be to contact LaCie support if the battery does start to dwindle. They're normally pretty great at sorting things out.

That is the almost EXCACT same problems I have! My top lid cracked indside before i used it, because the material inside is very fragile or cheap plastic. Returned mine yesterday and are waiting for my refund...

How you liking it? I just ordered one.

they are so not confusing - you're confused

@@clivebrincat88 don’t be one of those red fanboys. The naming systems are backwards but that doesn’t mean they are bad cameras.

Yup, audio is terrible.

If you're shooting with the R5 and a Ninja V or V+ then you'll be able to capture 12-bit ProRes RAW when recording on an SSD in your Atomos device. This will give you significantly greater image latitude and flexibility in Premiere Pro and FCPX while also working efficiently with your computer's CPU. If you use a Ninja V+ then you'll also be able to capture up to 8K 30p from the R5. Your Atomos device will come with a single Master Caddy II that you can fit with a 2.5" SSD. However, make sure you select your relevant Atomos device from the list at www.atomos.com/compatible-drives and only purchase an SSD that is approved and suited for your intended use. In terms of capacity, a 2TB SSD is a significant premium, and it's cheaper to buy multiple SSDs of a smaller capacity (such as 500GB), so really depends on how long you need to record for in a single take, or in rapid succession. It's super quick to swap SSDs during a shoot. The Angelbird AtomX SSDmini is nicely compact and will provide recording capabilities for anything you can throw at it, so maybe just consider smaller capacity drives to save on costs. In addition to ProRes RAW you also have the option to record to regular ProRes (video) which is less CPU heavy during the edit but still offers a better quality post workflow and post efficiency than the camera internal codecs will provide. It's also a more consistent bit rate, whereas ProRes RAW is variable based on the complexity of the sensor data from the camera - however this means ProRes RAW files can end up being smaller than ProRes video files. On the Ninja V+ you have H.265 as a built-in option too for quick turnaround or to significantly reduce your file size/storage requirements. This can be a paid-for license add on to a Ninja V.

@@GlobalDistribution wow, thank you so much for the effort you've put into this reply! i just did some quick research and the mini ssd 2tb costs 1k$ compared to the larger non mini 1.5k$ version. So already you've saved me 500$ thank you! I do prefer having 1 ssd card over a few for the reason that i dont enjoy carrying too much on location and also not having to interrupt shooting to replace them when full.

the only thing still questioning in my mind, is for 4k hq recording on prores, how quickly will that take up on storage. i know from the Deaf Director's youtube channel that 8k pro res puts out 20gb on just 10 seconds of recording time. So 4k hq prores id think would be half that? in which case shooting prores for 1 minute would be 60gb, 10 minutes would be 600bg. filming all day would be impracticable. Do you know what the actual 4k prores file size is? if its anything close to my estimation, would proress not be impractical?

@@andrelecozvideographer9030 ProRes is always going to take up more space, but the amount depends on your compression, frame rate, and how long you record for. This is where having a second drive comes in handy so you can offload one using something like YoYotta without losing too much time in the process. You'll probably fill a 500GB SSD in 30-40 minutes. There's also another benefit to using two drives: if you lose or damage one then you don't risk the entire project.

@@GlobalDistribution i see. At the same time, a 2tb SSD giving me potentially 2 hours would require me to have at least 3-5 2tb SSD cards for a full day of filming. Thats 3-5k$ in SSD cards 0o... not including second day or more shoots where i would have need to overnight transfer anywhere from 6-10 terabytes of data in order to empty SSD cards for the next shooting day. I dont think its possible to transfer that much data that quickly.

Thanks, Charles! Glad you like it.

Thanks for the comments! Glad you liked the films. We shot at 25 fps to give it more of a video game feel - playing into her rebooting or reloading every time she’s knocked unconscious. But we totally agree that shooting something similar at 24 fps would give a lovely cinematic look. Particularly with the MONSTRO sensor.

You would see zero difference between 24 and 25p. In the UK, it’s standard to shoot at 25.

How is that?

@Simon C are you really compairing a 6000 USD cam to a 54000 EUR cam? xD xD xD please tell me the diffrence between THE SUICIDE SQUAD and BIRDS OF PRAY. if you find any flaws in comparision to the other... let me know

Hey Barry! We used Sigma Cine lenses on all three shoots. PL mounts for the MONSTRO and GEMINI editions, and EF for the KOMODO. With the KOMODO we shot with a 20mm all the way through. The others used both the 35mm and 85mm.

@@GlobalDistribution Thanks!

The Shogun gives you multiple SDI inputs and camera switching, along with more screen real estate so it's still definitely a powerful product. All depends on what you need it do and the style of shooting you're working with. We've got a Shogun 7 on the FS5 in our studio, for example.

@@GlobalDistribution Thanks for responding. I am a documentarian and looking for a monitor, I love the look of the Shogun 7 but the Ninja V+ looks like a better monitor and has more features for a better shoot. Especially with the new S1h coming with 8K RAW, which would you buy now?

If you're on the go a lot then the Ninja V+ Pro Kit is probably the best option. You'd get RAW over HDMI (which the S1H does currently at 5.9K) and you'd get SDI RAW in there as well just in case. It also does RAW up to 8K 30p. It's smaller of course, so if you need the screen size and more inputs then go down the Shogun route. Check out Atomos' compatibility pages just to be sure: www.atomos.com/compatible-cameras?product=ninja-v-plus

@@GlobalDistribution Thanks for taking the time.

Check out the Angelbird AtomX SSDmini - that should support 8K RAW nicely: www.angelbird.com/prod/atomx-ssdmini-by-angelbird-2110/

@@GlobalDistribution thats the one that I have but it writes 500 m/s max speed while 8k footage is known to need more than double of that at least for the R5, atomos people told me that the firmware update will be released by end of year so guess well see..

@@prskyviews You should be all good then. Atomos has rated the Angelbird SSDminis up to 8K 30p RAW. You can check out their chart here: www.atomos.com/compatible-drives?product=ninja-v-plus

@@prskyviews just to follow up and in case you haven't seen it, the firmware updates for external 8K ProRes RAW on the R5 and Ninja V+ have just been released: globaldistribution.com/8k-prores-raw-on-canon-r5/

Could be down to shooting wide open on a 20mm lens with no stabilisation, or YT compression. We're making some clips available for download on the Four Eighths website soon so do feel free to grab those and compare close up.

Good question

I also don't get it.The Komodo anamorphic videos are also crazy good

Glad you like it! We'll be making some of the source footage available for people to play with soon too.

Lighting is key. You can have an $100,000 camera, but if you cinematography is not on point your image quality will suck.

In fact, no one says Komodo image quality sucks, except you.

Most HDMI cabling is rated for compressed consumer video signals so you would probably run into some difficulty with those either way. In terms of 8K and 4K 120p these are all RAW signals, so not rendered video pixels and therefore it's a different story. However, it's still recommended to use a high-grade HDMI cable such as the AtomFlex range as these are guaranteed to handle the RAW data signal. Again, cheap HDMI cables designed for domestic use will likely not be suitable to carry the data signal efficiently. If a cable is not suitable you'll simply just get 'No Input' reported on the Atomos unit. The important thing here is compressed, uncompressed and RAW signals. The AtomFlex range is guaranteed to handle RAW data signals as well as uncompressed video signals up to 10-bit 4K 60p.

That's definitely a good question... from previous experience, if the camera isn't recording internally you have a signficantly improved heat performance. We don't have an R5 in house, but if we can get hold of one we'll run a test and share the results.

@@GlobalDistribution here’s the link to @deafdirector ´si tests : ruclips.net/video/cddvvC6Ib3A/видео.html Would be interesting to compare indeed, with the LCD flipped out and off contrarily to his doing
