No. The BMVA 12G 7” will record to max 4K 30fps DCI when fed through SDI and 4K 25fps DCI when fed through HDMI. The 5.7K image will be scaled down to 4K DCI in the max resolution case, or to whatever port, resolution, and codec selected.
On 11 July 2023, the Blackmagic Video Assist 3.12 Update - Adds Blackmagic RAW recording from Panasonic Lumix GH6.
Is it possible the Video Assist recording resolution is dependent on how well the camera manufacturer made the interface?

…I've used both the BMPCC 6K and currently own the s5iix as my main cam with the video assist so I'm familiar with the BRAW bitrates. Been using BRAW on the S5IIX exclusively for 2ish months.
You get the exact bitrates BRAW would give you at that specific resolution, all the way up to Q0 or 3:1 compression.
…The RAW output had the camera barely heating up, in fact I don't even think the built in fan in the S5IIX was running. Since the camera simply has to dump RAW sensor data over HDMI, there's no processing load on the body.
…I was recording 6K Braw 5:1 to a Samsung T7 Shield 2TB. The video assist was giving me a temperature warning but never once shut off, once I reduced screen brightness to 65% it went away."
r/bmpcc Is micro jitters and vintage lenses a bug issue on BMPCC 6k? two considerations stopping me from jumping on it are the micro jitters and the fact that I really like using vintage lenses adapted.https://www.reddit.com/r/bmpcc/comments ... bug_issue/AliTheAce wrote:

My XT3 did a lot worse. You have to set it up right but once you do it's pretty solid. Proper AF modes, human/face detect if you need it and the speed and @@@ responsiveness settings as required.
This time, the Panasonic implementation of BRAW is equivalent to that of the BMPCC cameras. You have highlight recovery, you have all the gamma and gamut options that BMPCC cameras have, with the only exception of ISO, but you can adjust the exposure directly through the metadata in camera raw. The previous S1/H/5 cameras did not. I used BRAW one the old S cameras and it looked pretty processed and had sharpening baked in. They did not output a pure RAW RGB sensor data stream, now the second gen S5's do.
…The S5IIX, in my stress testing can handle over/underexposure extremely well, including highlight recovery for channels that are clipped, to a certain point."
r/bmpcc Can someone show me the difference between the 4k and 6khttps://www.reddit.com/r/bmpcc/comments ... en_the_4k/
