If you can't find it...Just ask - Custom 8Sinn Cage for RED Komodo


By Philip Grossman





"If you can't find what you need...just ask...

One thing I have realized over my professional career is if you can't find something "off the shelf" there is probably someone out there that can make it for you. Tomasz Gorczyca and the 8Sinn team did an amazing job customizing their Komodo Cage for me.

I reached out to 8Sinn as I really liked their cage for the Komodo and it was nearly perfect for my needs, but it needed a few modifications. I sent him some drawings and after a few weeks of back and forth to make sure I had all the items I was looking for they custom manufactured it for me.

He extended the sides and added a few more 1/4-20s (you can never have enough of them), he added a few more 1/4-20's in places I needed them, he extended the top plate, added captive screws and again a bunch more 1/-4-20s and finally made a small bar of "1/4-20s" that I can attached to where the lens mount goes.

I can not thank them enough for making the near perfect cage for "adventuring" with the Komodo"
 
Just something I saw on Instagram.

You know what ? I was wondering the other day if Panavision and RED will use the Komodo to make a small DXL... Like "DXL-ize" the Komodo.
I know the difference between DXL and DSMC2/Ranger Monstro is the body designed by Panavision + the light iron color science inside (but since it works with Log3G10, it seems more of a Color Space/gamut than a whole Color Science to me) so I wonder if they will do something aounrd the Komodo "platform"
 
Bastien,


My first thought was that it probably wouldn't be worth it for Red to do. But maybe a Komodo with a few more In/Out ports integrated like maybe XLR, Thunderbolt, USB-C 2.1 an additional SDI port whatever would be nice.

You can use the DXL2 transforms on Komodo footage right now if you want.

I don't think there's any reason to do a DXL version of Komodo. The whole point in a production like this one is to use Komodo as it's intended, as a crash cam or action cam. I can see a lot of action scenes in this series that would make good use of Komodo.

Yes. Just after posting I downloaded that and tested on Joey Helms footage ;-)

Those are old, no? The white paper included says to process in RedLogFilm and DragonColor1 prior to the LUT.

I think there's a Lut that deserves more of your time and one that actually came from RED called the "FILMBIAS" Lut It's included in the "RED Creative LUT Kit" update 3/10/2021. I'm using ACEScct and DavinciWideGamut workflows these days. However, when I use an IPP2 workflow in either "Color Managed" or Lut based this is awesome!

Here is an example .R3d from Luigi Valtulini of an image with some really bad yellow skintones.
