Contents

RAW video is a video file that is output directly from the

camera’s image sensor without any in-camera image

processing (RGB data before demosaicing)*. Like RAW still

images, RAW video files record rich image information

(tonal gradation, etc.), meaning they offer greater flexibility

in color grading compared to Log video or video recorded

in-camera. This makes them ideal for shoots where post-

production is going to be required.

* Noise reduction, lens aberration compensation and electronic VR

are generally performed by in-camera processing. Since RAW video

files are not subject to in-camera processing, users need to apply

these adjustments as necessary during post-production, by using

third-party software.

About RAW video

Nikon’s RAW video output function outputs 12-bit RAW data

via HDMI connector. The recording format depends on the

specifications of the external recorder connected via HDMI.

Recording to the camera’s memory card is not available.

RAW video output is compatible with the Atomos Ninja

V ver.10.2 (hereinafter called “Ninja V”), recording in the

ProRes RAW* file format. (As of November, 2019)

* ProRes RAW: RAW video format for general use, introduced by Apple

Inc. in 2018.

In order to use RAW video output with the Z 7/Z 6, it is necessary

to activate RAW output options. Please contact your nearest

Nikon-authorized service representative to receive this service*.

* This is a paid service. Please refer to products’ websites for details.

After activation, a RAW output options item will be added to the

camera’s SETUP MENU >HDMI >Advanced.
