KOMODO....

[Gregory Karydis]

Sounds good Jarred
Looking forward to #2 !

Actually #3 gives a hint at how big of a deal this new sensor is. So it's still enough of an answer
And #1, well, it was worth a shot
Noting that you didn't rule out the Stormtrooper possibility, so there's still hope!

Thanks for the answers Jarred!

 

[Ben Hensley]

But if possible, FORGED CF please.

YES! This would be amazing!

 

[Domenic Barbero]

can someone else take a cool pic so jarred gives out more answers and ask things like sensor size, max framerates at those resolutions, will it shoot r3d, actual cost etc.

 

[DJ Meyer]

Is it Komodos or Komodi?

 

[Gregory Karydis]

Is it Komodos or Komodi?

That should've been one of my 3 questions!

I'm fairly certain r3d has been confirmed.

 

[Jarred Land]

Correct.

Well, My Stormtrooper Komodo arrives on Friday.

Stormtrooper REDs usually signal pre-production. It's impossible to predict how the next stage will go, because literally everything could go wrong, but if you look back historically and use Helium as a reference, We went from Stormtrooper Heliums to shipping to normal Heliums everyone 3-4 months later.

So if you need to make a guess.. that's about as good as you can get. But... as we bang on them more.. that could go completely sideways.

We are Probably ready to start talking specs soon though... since those wont change that much now. Although most of you have figured it out anyways.

Battleship Grey Komodos pls.

Komodus Operandi

The name for the Komodo operating guide?

 

[Han Vogen]

Anamorphic modes would be great to know. Also base ISO/s.
Sound quite intriguing.

 

[Jeremy Torrie]

Anamorphic? If in-camera squeeze available, how about about a mount from the CNC shop?

 

[Samir Patel]

Can I drop by to see this Komodo in person... will sign my NDA. Back out of LA Tuesday... just sayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyin.

 

[Russ Fill]

Heh heh heh not missing anything my friend, already two steps ahead of you But Bayhem Green is off limits... that's his.

You just made my day. Now Im kind of thinking more cameras.. which is good right? Don't tell my wife.
How about a couple fades combo colors could I do a yellow to Bayhem green. They he would still have the exclusive Bayhem green, or maybe a Green with yellow splatter drops. Ok that's enough. Got to keep cool. Its about what's in side right.. and what you do with it.. How about if I get permission from Bayhem him self to OK a greenie Komodo?:001_cool:

Im also thinking to keep the set to match my Monstro to get another crushed velvet Forged would bee super cool but I think due to the size you need to be big and loud, not dark and "hey has anyone see the little red camera anywhere".

 

[Gregory Karydis]

In that case, how about a safety orange (think McLaren), racing blue (a la Ford) or electric Blue, Lotus Green, and a RED red?
And maybe a Neon Pink.

 

[David Rasberry]

The deep red of the Reduser banners would be a nice option.

 

[Mendes Nabil]

This direct communication from a man to men, i truly respect what you are doing here Jarred.
I was about to sleep and decided not to let these words die in the modesty of silence..

Salute

 

[jacob.schwarz]

My unearned questions if you can answer them .

1. sensor size, same as gemini?
2. dual iso ... i assume yes from the sneak peaks.
3. does the top monitor pogo allow you at add adapters for hdmi, sdi with data?

 

[Jiri Vrozina]

Fantastic!
Oh, errr...
Can I call a friend? With great power comes... a good question...!?

Here we go:
1. What can we do to get a Stormtrooper or regular Komodo before Christmas? -probably a pre-production unit, much like the Houdini program.
2. Any chance for a shot with the top display turned on with controls?
3. How about a short R3D clip we can play with until preorders open? Ideally at 6K with the lowest compression - ok, this might be a bit of a stretch

Really GREAT questions...

Ok since we are all going with our question I have a simple one :
will it be possible on order to get something engraved/etched on a Komodo body like Apple does (did ?) on iPods back in the day or even RED did (I think) on Epic cameras when they came out ?

You mean like they did on our Epic Dragon "M8"?
