Audio inputs

Endless open expansion

The capabilities of the Ninja V can be enhanced through the ingenious modular expansion slot breaking out connectivity for high-speed video, audio and power. Expansion modules will dock onto the battery slot of the unit and offer advanced features such as continuous power modules. Atomos and third-party accessories will be available in the future.
