In this review, we'll look at Blackmagic Design's 7" 12G Video Assist. Like the 5" and 3G models in the Video Assist line, this compact monitor-recorder is designed to go out into the field and attach to the camera, rig, or tripod. It allows you to see your shot better than a small viewfinder or pop-out LCD that's rarely larger than three four inches on most pro camcorders. The Video Assist also enables you to record your footage in high-quality ProRes or HD|NX at resolutions up to 4Kp60. |
