  • 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 :)

KOMODO....

Ahhh yeah that makes sense.

Well I think probably since the discount plan hasn't been made there still might be room to accommodate those who bought in early even if it's second hand. I think the hard part is being able to verify that you know?

And if they do that, where does it stop? I think that's probably what they are thinking about. Technically speaking someone could just buy second hand today and try to claim a discounted Komodo if they don't put some sort of rule in place. I wonder if there's a way to still give people discounts if it was second hand but earlier on.

That doesnt work unfortunately for the very reason you mention... The first owner could apply for the discount, and then the 2nd owner or 3rd owner or 4th owner etc.
 
From looking at the new SDK it seams like Komodo records r3d´s. Any beans spilled about lowest compression rate at 6k?

All I’m saying is the way H1 went down.... there is room there. I would NOT have purchased an android if it didn’t have a RED badge on it, IPHONE 11X over. All good, that’s the game live and learn....
 
My absolute biggest question is how Komodo translates handheld. Huge win is that it has a global shutter. Just unsure how it translates since it’s a lighter package. I’m sure it’ll be great.

Might be a little jittery. But the beauty of a small camera is you can always bulk it up. But you can't slim down a big cam, that's for sure.

This early sample from my Digital Bolex might give you some idea of hand held motion quality with a global shutter. Schneider 16-80 f/2 handheld with a pistol grip. All up weight about 6lbs.

 
The Gemini sensor has superior DR than Komodo.

Jarred, for the relatively few of us that are more concerned with highlight performance than low light, can you say what type of overexposure latitude above 18% gray we can expect from Komodo when rating (with a light meter) at ISO 800, 1250, 1600 & 2000?
 
The Laundromat was great!
Can’t wait for Let Them Talk for some Komodo footage!

Jarred, is there a chance for some Monochrome love with the baby Dragon?
Maybe it’s too early to think about this, but I’m writing it here so you know there’s interest.
If so, count me in!!!
 
Aha
Thought it would be too risky to use new camera with that cast :-)
O no make no mistake it was Meryl Streep on a boat in the middle of the ocean... way way way more risky. Soderbergh always seems to do it that way with us :)
 
Ok, i was also under the impression that it was Komodo.

Imdb has the camera listed as the Red Epic under technical details.
 
Yep, I let that slip on FB a bit ago, just an under the radar project for the moment, but I have a real one in the flesh already.
PL to RF mount with a slot for the same existing revolva cartridges.

Not sure we'll do EF to RF the same as that job is covered reasonably by the very cheap and handy Canon EF-RF with vari ND. Its chintzy as hell, but cheap and works.

Thanks for sharing!

@Jarred, Will the Komodo have more DR than the DMSC 1 Scarlet?

Based on his previous answer, yes it should have more DR than Mysterium-X.

Don't worry. I'll be testing it once all the nails are fully hammered down.

Phil,
as soon as the Komodo is released and we all get one, would you consider giving a Master Class on how to use it in the most efficient way?
