TRANSFORMS CAMERA USABILITY WITH VIDEO ASSIST Traditional cameras are designed for shoulder mounted operation so are a compromise. Hours spent leaning into a viewfinder for long tripod mounted shoots can be tough. Video Assist will transform your shooting style with an on-board rigged screen. It's much more comfortable using a screen rigged to a position best suited for a shooting setup. Plus you get better situational awareness for the operator assistant or director. With both 5 and 7 models you choose the size of a rigged monitor that suits you best. Plus you're also adding fantastic features such as focus zoom focus peaking zebras histogram false colour scopes frame markers frame guides touch screen and more. CUSTOMIZE YOUR TOUCHSCREEN TOOLS AND FEATURES With large and bright 5 and 7 touchscreens Video Assist makes it incredible easy to frame shots and accurately focus. The touchscreen displays critical information while you’re shooting including the timecode transport control audio meters and a histogram for exposure. You can also customize the LCD to add or remove overlays such as current filename focus peaking zebra false colour frame guides 3D LUTs and more. 3D LUTs support allows monitoring shots with the desired colour and look plus you can even bake in the LUT if you want to record it into the file. If you're using Blackmagic RAW the 3D LUT is only added into the metadata so it can be disabled in post production. DUAL MEDIA RECORDERS FOR UNINTERRUPTED RECORDING Video Assist uses commonly available SD card media so you can record to flash memory cards that are easy to obtain. The files are small enough to allow long recordings on standard SD cards or the faster UHS-II cards. The larger Video Assist 12G 7 model even includes 2 SD card slots so you can swap out any full cards even during recording allowing infinite length recording. Standard SD cards or the faster UHS-II cards are perfect for broadcast because they are small high speed and affordable.
