Atomos Shogun Classic 7" HDR Monitor-Recorder-Switcher
The Shogun Classic consolidates a broadcast-grade field monitor, a multi-format 4K recorder, and a four-input live switcher into one portable unit — replacing three separate devices on your rig or production cart. It records up to DCI 4K at 60fps in Apple ProRes or Avid DNx directly to SSD, with a 3000 nit display bright enough for outdoor monitoring in any conditions.
The problem it solves: Managing a multi-camera live shoot with separate monitors, recorders, and switchers is expensive, heavy, and complex. The Shogun Classic replaces all three — record ISOs, switch live, and monitor in HDR from a single device you can hold in one hand.
Who this is for
Key features
A 7.2" Full-Array Local Dimming panel with 105% DCI-P3 coverage gives you accurate HDR monitoring outdoors or in direct sunlight — no shade tent required.
Records edit-ready Apple ProRes HQ / 422 / LT and Avid DNxHR / DNxHD files directly to SSD. No transcoding. Hand off drives and cut immediately.
Switch between four SDI camera sources live on the touchscreen. Asynchronous inputs mean you don't need genlocked cameras — mix brands freely without extra sync gear.
Records up to four 1080p60 ISO streams plus a fifth switched program channel at the same time, giving editors full flexibility in post without additional hardware.
Load custom .cube LUTs and monitor in any major log format — S-Log3, ARRI LogC, RED Log3G10, Canon C-Log3, Panasonic V-Log, and more — without touching the recorded signal.
False color, focus peaking (3 modes), waveform, RGB parade, vectorscope, zebra, anamorphic desqueeze, frame guides, safe areas, and tap-to-zoom — all from the capacitive touchscreen.
