Gerald Undone has discovered that the internal recording resolution settings affect the external recording quality of your camera so if you use an external recorder like the Ninja V leave your camera set to 8k for the best image quality. Leaving your camera set to 8k will improve the quality of 4k external recording and if you drop it to 1080p it will reduce the quality even if the external recorder is recording 4k.
