I'm working on a short film next month and trying to find an inexpensive solution for a director's monitor or video village setup with Komodo. Has anyone used the setup from vrriis? https://www.vrriis.com Thanks!

Hi. I just got a new Mac Studio with Ventura 13.3.1 installed. I can't get Redcine-x to work though. It worked fine on my previous old Mac running Monterey. I have tried to uninstall and re-install but it still crashes on start up. I have reached out to RED and they confirmed it should work on...

Does anyone know how you go about connecting the Magicfiz follow focus or other smallrig handle with record button to the komodo? Is there a USB C adapter that I need or do you need the Komodo Link Adapter? Thanks!

Why hasn't RED and SmallHD made a compatible version for Komodo? I love the RED branding on it and the top plate connection bracket. I'd be willing to buy that bracket by itself even.

I just got the lineup of Sirui anamorphics and they all have a pre-installed 1/4 thread support bracket. I currently only have a Smallrig lens support mount for heavier lenses. But I'm wondering what options are out there to actually utilize the 1/4 thread lens bracket itself for added...

What brands are people using that maintain compatibility with outrigger handle. I have an 8Sinn cage and kit but noticed recently that the small top plate it came with for some reason is loose no matter how much I tighten down the screws into the outrigger. This top plate has an arri style for...

The current cables I am using (AV-Cables brand) are very stiff and a bit difficult to wrap around my rig. I also have also come to realize that it would be better to have cables with the right angle connectors. I know there are a lot of options out there though and many of them don't have great...

Does anyone know what the difference and results are with the Full Frame vs the Super35 versions when shooting on Komodo? The Super35 are obviously cheaper, but I believe they have a squeeze factor of 1.33 vs 1.6. Coming from the DSLR world, I've only shot with Spherical lenses but I know...

I was looking into the Metabones Canon EF Lens to RF-Mount T CINE Speed Booster Ultra 0.71x Adapter (EOS-R). Has anyone used them? Thoughts?

I have been trying to figure out the best workflow for using Tentacle Sync and Komodo while allowing for maximum available connections and simplified rig configuration. I love Tentacle's auto mapping feature when it works. Big time saver in post. Scenario 1: Use the expander module, TRS to BNC...

Coming from the DSLR world and run and gun shooting, changing lenses quickly was common practice in my experience. I've been researching what the best case scenario is with changing lenses on set with a RED. I've seen some conflicting information on this with regards to cinema cameras. Some...

I was doing more testing on my new Komodo and using the Expander Module. Ran into several hiccups. First being that I had to take my cage off in order to get the expander module mounted. Does anyone know where I can get longer quick release 3/8 or 1/4 screws? There didn't seem to be anyway to...

Does anyone have experience with the new Mac Studio M1 Max or Ultra. I'm curious if either is powerful enough to handle R3D raw 6K. Obviously if the base model is sufficient then that would be great. I prefer Adobe Premiere over Resolve too. Thanks

Hi. Does anyone have recommendations for more LUTs that can be installed beyond what comes preloaded on the Komodo? Thanks!

In terms of having to calibrate and black level the Komodo, does anyone know how you are to handle filming sequences that start inside (warm environment) to outside shots (cold)? Is calibration necessary again once outside?
