Blackmagic Video Assist works with everything from DSLR's to older tape based camcorders, and even the latest digital film cameras.

Blackmagic Video Assist helps you make sure every shot is in focus and gives you professional images with the same recording quality used by major motion pictures and prime time TV shows!
