All round seems the CCM41 is probably the better choice for my needs. Love that in a normal (no high wind situation) I can use both mics in the Leo, seems like it will be a much more flexible setup. Important for me to keep my rig as small as possible. Now just awaiting the quote. Thank you for...

Sorry getting a bit confused, meant the CCM41 in the above post. Too much time on the computer.

Yeah concerned by the size of the pianissimo, would seem a bit ridiculous with clients around, particularly with the komodo ;-). My current and fairly long term project is likely to rely mainly on ambient sound so for this to be as immersive as possible is going to be fairly key. The DPA and...

Ah thanks for the explanation. I saw the 3D bracket on the website. On my Monstro (also on the komodo but not so much space) I have several nato rails permanently attached, that way I can just slide on or off my video transmitter, small hd 703, zaxcom receiver, cold shoe mount etc. depending on...

Patrick many thanks for the detailed reply, very useful. Hadn't realised that there is a version of the Leo windshield that is able to contain two mics. Will go through your post really carefully, there is a lot to think about. Was drawn to the minicmit as I thought it may be more versatile for...

Hey Patrick Really interested in your MS setup, I tried to see how you manage to mount both the microphones on the camera. Looking at the photos I can only see one microphone. Would be great to see a photo showing how you mount them in more detail. Thinking of setting up a Mini Cmit and CCM8...

Hi Steve I have the original cine saddle and a mini saddle which I needed for a project years ago. Not sure how the mini compares to the baby or tiny- they weren’t around back then. Personally I feel that the original is too big for the Komodo and the mini just right. No danger of material...

“Everything is subject to change”. It’s been an amazing wild ride, feel like it might calm down a bit now! I can’t believe how much change Red has inflicted on the industry and how much the company has empowered us all to be able to play with the big boys whatever camera we use. 15 years ago I...

Just to add, this was a great accessory for my epic, really sped up my workflow when run and gunning and the precision was great. I did find it changed the look of the camera slightly but in my opinion in a good way. Has never worked on my DSMC2 though.

Hi Mike Have just put mine back onto my epic to check for you. Not sure if the colour of the glass is changing but can confirm that it works fine with a dumb lens. Put a Leica r 21-35 on to check. Currently on build 6.3.104. The camera upgraded the accessory automatically when I turned it on and...

Good video, thank you. Won’t be selling my reds anytime soon but may well update my iphone. Really liked the look of Quine, will give it a go on my next project.

Hi I’m trying to convert an old steadiccam pilot to work with Komodo/ DSMC2. I need to replace the steadicam’s internal component video cable with either an sdi or HDMI one to go from the camera to my Smallhd monitor. The main problem is I can’t find a coiled 12g bnc cable which is needed to...

Does anyone have any recommendations for an adaptor to mount leica m lenses on my Komodo? It would be great if it could use it with my kippertie revolva ef but it seems as though it could only work with the RF mount. After the breakthrough filter thread it feels as though accuracy and build...

Has anyone had specific experience of working with 8k DSMC2 and Komodo footage on the new MacBook pros, in particular with Resolve. I would be really interested to hear your experiences and whether they playback smoothly. I am happy to wait for exports, I can do these over night but are they...

Is anyone using the Tilta bp to vlock plate. I haven’t found any proper reviews for it and as it is not Red approved I am a bit hesitant. It is the only plate that I have found that can power my accessories and the komodo together. 2 x lemo, 2 x dtap and usb. Would be good to hear peoples’...
