Blackmagic DesignVideo Assist 3G 5 Inch FHD LCD Recorder Monitor with Four Built-in Scopes and 270MB Memory Capacity for ProRes Recording

Used this to record video out for minimally invasive procedures. Great quality and flexibility.

all good

It's pretty hard not to love the Blackmagic Video Assist. Besides the obvious application as a video recorder and monitor it provides the ability to gather a bunch of information about whatever signal you input. This makes it an invaluable tool for live production technicians. I wouldn't show up at a camera op, projectionist, or video engineering call without this piece of tech in my case. Just make sure you also buy a pair of micro bnc adapters.

Works great but records in a format that my computer doesn't recognize.....AND the unit that I have gets pretty hot.

I use this for recording anything from live televised ski races to yacht shows. It's broadcast quality and easy to edit. You need to Play around with it to learn the menus and formats though.

missing piece to power supply

Good

When I received the box, it was a little crumpled with no cellophane. Not a huge deal. But then when I opened it, the item was obviously used. Not packed correctly, protective sleeve jammed underneath the monitor, the screen protector was on crooked with dirt underneath it, and dirt on the monitor itself. Scratches on the back where batteries slide in and out. And the wires were just tightly wound around themselves instead of neatly wrapped as if it was new. Asking for at least a partial refund. (It works fine...) I'll update to see what Adorama's customer service does.****UPDATE**** Adorama refunded approx 10%
