Do you really Need the BlackMagic Video Assist 12g for Lumix S5/S5II/S1? BRAW Full Frame Download

Hi guys, in today's video I'll talk about the 5" Blackmagic video assist 12g. A great monitor that I love to use with my Panasonic Lumix S1 & S5, but also with cinema cameras that I often rent like the RED Komodo. Next to be a fantastic super bright monitor, with all the inputs and outputs I need, this is also a solid external recorder that let me film in BRAW or Apple ProRes HQ.
- Positive Aspects of the BMD VA 5" = Small, Lightweight, Well Built, Bright Monitor (2500 Nits), 12g SDI IN-OUT, HDMI IN-OUT, 2 Battery Slots, SD and SSD Recording, BRAW & ProRes HQ Recording Options.
- Negative Aspects of the BMD VA 5" = Lack of Audio Inputs (get the 7" if you need them), Digital Sharpening with Lumix S Cameras (not present on Fujifilm Cameras).
If you would like to test some BRAW footage, in this link you can download the clips. Please don't forget to like and subscribe, it's a nice way to say thank you!

With the S5II(x) Panasonic finally fixed their external RAW output. Each chroma channel gets delivered separately and without debayering which results in tons of texture, resolution and the addition of highlight recovery. The result is at least twice as good as before and outperforms the internal output in every single discipline finally :)

I agree, they look artificially "sharpened" for some reason(and I think that's what you referred to as digital looking). There are quite a bit of moire and aliasing happening. I wonder if that was caused by some weird upscaling/downscaling during the BRAW interpreting/recording process. I have never seen those issues with my bmpcc4k or 6k pro.

Nice video! I would like to hear you zalk about the delay as this is the biggest problem with these cameras. Also, I'm wondering about the digital look of the braw. With my testing, picture wise, there isntwo big reasons why using braw. 1. Denoising in camera is brutal. Dark colors get destroyed by it. 2. Look at the hue channel or key a color (sp hue+sat, not a luminance value) and conpare. In camera has huge squares. Braw has so much more detail. Important when colorgrading or greenkey shoots. Somehow not a single youtube review mentions this. This is the difference between 4:2:2 or 4:2:0 (in 6k) and 4:4:4 of braw

Hi Luca. I'm highly interested in the ghosting images you are talking about. Can you tell us more on this.

Did you see if All Intra or Prores (which is all intra) could partially solve thi issue? BTW thanks for your videos. Always very informative and short enough.
@LucaBono.Studio 9 ай бұрын
Hi Rudi! If you film in Prores is less visible, but it's still there by a small amount. The ghosting will completely go away if you film in RAW. Keep in mind that I see this problem of ghosting in all the consumer cameras, except for the FX6 (with the denoiser turned off)

The S5IIx and Video Assist combo is interesting, but the latency coming out of the camera is just awful, plus the fact that the Video Assist uses external SSDs for recording which adds more bulk to the rig-at least with the Ninja V there’s a tightly integrated SSD.

I hear you in motion, but are you seeing a large difference in motion between shooting shooting (in my example) with the S5IIX shoot ALL-I, vs BRAW? ALL-I HQ should have all frames compressed equally. I’ve seen the diff in GOP vs ALL-I, but it’s more obvious in complex demanding movement such as shooting the ocean. Even with ALL-I on the S5IIX, I feel even though it’s not always day and night between GOP, there’s just something about movement that seems accurate based based on the recorded frame rate.

The most annoying part of the video assist is that it's marketed as being HDR, it's right on the front of the freaking display, yet when recording in BRAW you can't get any HDR preview. That part to me is absolutely wild. Yet some blackmagic cameras have HDR up to PQ 1000 nits on the in camera display LUT options, and the cheaper Atomos devices all allow for HDR real time viewing. The marketing vs real world workflow on that is just absolutely unforgivable.
