Atomos has released AtomOS 10.74, the latest firmware update for their Ninja V & Ninja V+ monitor/recorders adding a few new features.
The firmware update adds custom frame guides, an onion skin overlay and the ability to do frame grabs.
Find out what’s new in AtomOS 10.74 below.
New – Frame Grab
- Capture lossless PNG frame grabs in the Ninja V’s native display resolution (1920 x 1080 pixels) during recording and playback by tapping the frame grab icon in the lower tool bar menu at the bottom of the screen.
- The PNG files are stored within the Frame Grab folder on your recording media, which automatically gets created when you capture your first frame grab.
New – Onion Skin Overlay
- Layer frame grabs on top of your video feed in Record and Playback mode at three different transparency levels & positions (50/50 split left, full-width, 50/50 split right).
- To load a frame grab, navigate to the new Onion Skin tab via the lower tool bar menu. In there, you are presented with the options to load an individual frame grab via the file browser or choose either the last used or last captured grab.
- Besides using frame grabs captured with the Ninja V, you can also load custom 24-Bit PNG images (Alpha Transparency supported) in 1920 x 1080 resolution via the Onion Skin tool.

New – Custom Frame Guides
- Enter your desired aspect ratio into the new custom frame guide configurator to create a custom preset.
- The standard frame guide presets that have always been in AtomOS have been moved into the new Frame Guide tab in the lower tool bar menu. This way, you can easily enable and disable them via a single tap, and browse all the available SMPTE, social and custom frame guide options through the menu.
