KOMODO....

[Arturo Sánchez]

Fingers crossed for HDRX.
Basically essential for architecture&interior design films.

Is that still a thing ? I mean, is still a needed feature on the current DSMC2 line or have they a big enough dynamic range to achieve HDR anyway ? (or maybe it makes it easier in post ? I don't know I never really tried HDRx)

Very much still a thing!
Even if you end up not using it in the final composite, it's pretty darn useful in VFX!

And I sure hope we can have a version of it on the Komodo...

 

[Arturo Sánchez]

Yep, HDRX is pretty useful, it gives that extra highlights in extreme situations

Wow ok didn't know.
If that's so, I sure hope it's there too

As it is a pocket camera one thing really good would be that it turn on very quickly to capture the moment.

For wireless control, not for monitoring. I hope it does have a USB-C connection, but there is no evidence of that so far.

USB-C port is on the Cradle.

 

[David Rasberry]

I was assuming top pins to USB-C, not a USB port on the camera.

Wireless control (ala foolcontrol) will surely be an option for ios or Android, but I thought they were discussing wired monitoring and control.

Edit: Here's the quote Bob was quoting:

I don't think Hydrogen will disappear.
I think that Jannard and team are as committed to the Hydrogen media machine phone concept as they were to the original Red One . H1 shortcomings will not change that. A better phone is coming.

Edited because Jarred just confirmed a USB-C port on the pogo interface cradle! Yay!!!

 

[Bastien Tribalat]

USB-C port is on the Cradle.

... What Cradle ?

 

[Mark L. Pederson]

... What Cradle ?

The one that attaches to the top of the Komodo

The one that attaches to the top of the Komodo

Yes but, have we seen it already ? Did I miss that ?

 

[Gregory Karydis]

USB-C port is on the Cradle.

Aha!
So there's a Cradle!

And it has USB-C to boot!!!

Any chance we'll get a dimly lit teaser of said Cradle too??????

Will the cradle come with Komodo on the Hydrogen owner package or be a separate additional cost item?

It would make sense that the Hydrogen hooks up to the Komodo with a simple pogo to pogo mount while The Cradle is for generic USB-C devices.
But I could be waaaaay off here.

He he. One little tease from Jarred should be good for another 10 pages of speculations.

About as dimly lit as they come.:001_tongue:

Nice!!!

Next question. Who makes an android phone that accepts a video input via USB-C?

I believe it will be handled via an app, for controls and video signal too... potentially?

Bingo. And IOS shortly after.
