The Blackmagic Video Assist 7 12G HDR is an on-camera monitor and recorder with a bright 7-inch touchscreen, built for filmmakers who want a clear view and clean recordings in the field. Its HDR screen is bright enough for daylight and it handles Ultra HD from any camera.
Overview

It records broadcast-quality ProRes and DNx, Ultra HD up to 2160p60, to fast SD cards or USB-C disks, so you can capture a clean master alongside your camera or use it as the primary recorder.
