Both the Blackmagic Video Assist 12G HDR 5" and 7" monitor-recorder combos feature a 2,500 nits bright display with Wide Color Gamut (WCG) and record via 12G-SDI and HDMI 2.0 connections in formats up to 2160p/60 (DCI 4K) - there are also codec options for recording in Apple ProRes, Avid DNx, and Blackmagic RAW.

Power comes from two commercially available Sony L-series batteries powered (or via a 12V DC power connector). Recording is done to commercially available SD cards on or, thanks to USB-C, external flash drives (SSD) or disk arrays. There is also a tally indicator, four integrated scopes (waveform, vectorscope, RGB parade, histogram) and advanced focus assist functions. Overlays can now be displayed full screen.

The 7-inch Blackmagic Video Assist 12G model features two SD card slots for continuous recording, as well as two mini-XLR inputs with phantom power for incoming audio from microphones and external audio mixers. The LCD, with its exceptionally wide color gamut, handles Rec.2020 and Rec.709 color spaces, as well as 100 percent DCI-P3 format. Video Assist supports industry-standard 17- and 33-point 3D LUTs. Alternatively, it can work with built-in LUTs such as Extended Video, Film to Video, Film to Rec.2020, and others.
