Atomos Ninja V for Wildlife Photography: Kingfishers

First time back at the kingfishers this new breeding season :) I will be using the Atomos Ninja V field monitor external recorder to record these amazing birds. Right now they only show themselves every few hours. The Ninja V have an awesome feature which comes in handy, the pre-roll function. But, there are some serious downsides to using a Ninja V for wildlife photography also. I am going to be honest with you, and share all the likes AND dislikes.
