Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)
Recently, I picked up the new Fujifilm, GFX 100 II. Needless to say, this camera is amazing for stills. But I also had the opportunity to shoot some video with it. I shot both in anamorphic and also in the Cine 5.8K capture mode. I really like this mode. It utilizes the full width of the sensor...
In a recent livestream with YouTuber Carlos Quintero, Red CEO Jarred Land joined the chat and posted that it’s like they have a crystal ball, referring to user requests for an updated Komodo version. He later joined the video livestream as a guest and went on to hint that not only was a Komodo...
When shooting with anamorphic lenses it becomes difficult to monitor either externally via SDI, via the app or internally as the image becomes letterboxed. It would be awesome to have the option to display a punched in crop that fits the format that you intend to deliver in. In my case more...
It would seem likely that Red will produce a updated version of Komodo. It also seems likely that this updated version will have several, yet to be determined improvements over the current model.
So now to the question: With key features like continuous AF still in beta, would you have...
I think we have all been pretty patient as the Komodo was released about 2 years ago. When exactly can we expect the Autofocus to be officially released? Will it have tracking? Face/ and eye recognition? Will it be the exact same as it was 2 years ago? I’m just wondering if we will ever actually...
Nikon today released a new firmware update that adds 12 bit 8.3K 60p internal N-Raw and ProRes Raw to their Z9 flagship model. This is the first camera to support internal Apple ProRes Raw:
When attempting to use the latest REDCINE—X PRO version (55.51981) on my brand new M1 Max MacBook Pro, I immediately noticed pink lines appearing on the footage. These pink lines stream from right to left across the footage. When opening the same files on my older Intel based MacBook Pro, the...
Tascam makes an audio adapter that is designed to be used with the new mirrorless offerings from Canon and Fujifilm. This adapter also ships with a passive cold shoe mount and can be powered with AA batteries. Apparently, this setup works really well with the Red Komodo 6K.
Here’s a video...
IPP2 seems to be missing many of the controls that are present in the Original and Legacy workflows in Davinci Resolve. Switching to Legacy or Original in Davinci Resolve apparently slows down the computer to an unworkable point. Has anyone else run into this? What does your workflow look like...
These two cameras are very different and really are probably a good complement to each other. One being more useful for hurried run n gun. The other better for a more controlled shoot. That said I think the footage from the Canon Eos R3 looks very good. Here is a video shot in 6K Raw and...
I’m trying to find out which anamorphic setting will loose the least pixels when cropping to 16:9 aspect ratio. I have been researching to try to learn how the sensor creates these different modes, but cannot find any info. What are your thoughts?
So the gist of the question is simply this: I’m filming in the anamorphic mode I would like to monitor from my SDI connected monitor, just the 16x9 cropped image… not the entire image, as I intend to crop in to 16 x 9 in post. Is there a way to do this?
The reason for my wanting to do this is...
It’s my understanding that the Red Komodo 6k was designed to replace action cameras such as the GoPro. I find it strange that given the use case, the Komodo had no image stabilization. Nothing in camera and no data for post stabilization. All action/crash cams have stabilization. Actually, they...
I’m trying to record timecode to an audio channel on my Komodo. However, for whatever reason it does not seem to be recognized in Davinci Resolve. Has anyone run into this issue? If so what’s the trick to getting it to work? Is there a recommended input level, or is there some setting that needs...
So my brand new Komodo is scheduled to arrive in two days, shipped from BHPhoto. This has me wondering how users that have had their cameras for awhile are getting along. Are you enjoying working with the Komodo? What are the things you like most? What are the things that separate this camera...
It seems there are a few options but I’m wondering which monitor gets the consensus for use with Komodo. I ordered mine with the SmallHD OLED kit, but is this the best option given it’s relatively poor brightness? In the end there is a trade off between brightness and battery life. I’m...
After searching around on the forum I’m coming up empty on this one, so here it is:
1. Does the Komodo 6k record in 12 bit or 16 bit?
2. Do we have a thread with all the known specs?
