    KOMODO OG Feature Request

    The preset menu for the Komodo OG is nice, but, it really doesn't reduce the number of button presses needed in order to select a preset. It would be really nice if another option was available in the "FUNCTION" button that selected assigning specific presets to the top buttons on the Komodo.

    Daylight Viewable Monitor

    A bit off-topic, but, perhaps other Komodo users can chime in. I'm looking at a SmallHD monitor to use outdoors in direct sunlight. Seems most people are using a Cine7 which has a screen brightness of 1800 nits. SmallHD also has a smaller 5inch screen on the Ultra5, that goes to 3000 nits. The...

    f/stop based false color

    While going over the Lift, Gamma, Gain forum, I stumbled across this reference of interest. https://kaurh.gumroad.com/ This guy, Kaur Hendriksen, has written a few interesting dctl's, not the least of which is a false color dctl, for Resolve, that defines colors based on f/stops. I've found...

    Video Artifacts with Red CineX on MacBook M1 Pro

    What's up with Red CineX on the MacBook M1 Max? I'm running v55.0 on my new MacBook M1 Max. When I playback footage from the Komodo, I get tons of artifacting in the form of small horizontal hash lines that look like video noise. Disabling GPU processing makes the problem go away. Playing the...

    Setting Aperture without an external monitor ;(

(I don't always want to carry an external monitor or ad hoc iPhone) As soon as I tap the aperture button, the aperture slider appears; and covers the goal posts and...

    Komodo lens options

    I've been looking around for a good parfocal, zoom lens to support my documentaries and training videos. There's a ton of reviews around on each of my options, but, they all have positives and negatives. An overriding limitation is that the cost needs to be under $5K. In no particular order...
