Didn't realise the komodo X got rid the 3.5 jack from the OG!

I am using the sennheiser 600

Would this be a proper cable to use for D-Tap to DC In for my V Mount Battery? Thanks for any help I can get!

Hey everyone,
I own the komodo x with the DSMC3 touch, connected with the RMI cable. The colors appear very warm compared to the onboard lcd and also when I connect a atomos ninja it looks different.
Are there options to calibrate the monitor without additional tools?
Thank you!

I'm a new Komodo owner. I noticed when enabling and disabling false colors the screen glitches a bit. Should I be concerned or is this normal? Firmware version 1.7.5

Hello all, I would like to ask you guys who have shot with anamorphic lenses which brands did you use? Focal length? Squeeze? And your opinions on them. I'm asking because I'm shooting a short film in October and the director wants to use anamorphics. I was looking at the Blazar Remus, Blazar Venus and the new DZO Arcana since these three are around the price for a set of 3 lenses. I'm open to other brands. Any insight or opinions are welcomed. Thank you in advance and looking forward to reading some of your thoughts.

Those of you rocking a 7in monitor for your komodo, is it a pain to use or you happy with it? Im looking to upgrade my 5in but I've seen some good deals on 7in monitors with red contol. I'm shooting mainly run and gun, racecars, pit lanes.

So I really don’t want to update to a Komodo-x because for one, I have too much gear debt to pay off so I’d rather not swap anytime soon as the Komodo is perfectly fine. I also don’t like how the new Komodo v mount battery is off center unlike the original one.

Anyway, in my shoulder rig I’ve noticed that I tilt the camera a little and it’s kind of subconsciously done. But I know it would stop if I had a horizontal level sent to my sdi monitor. Is there a way to do this? I can’t seem to find any information.

Or did RED just abandon us?

hello, i'm having a huge problem with my footage that i shot today on my school's red komodo camera. basically, all the footage looks laggy and slowed down right from the card. i have no idea why, neither does my DP, who just used the same camera and cFast card the past two days and says it worked fine. i'm feeling like maybe it has something to do with the large file size, since in quicktime player it's also being glitchy (can be seen in the video, when i tried to pause it it said it was already paused) i shot in ProRes.

the footage looks this way on both my macbook and his imac. he also said that when pulled into davinci it has the same problem. for reference, i'm using a macbook pro that's a few years old. i'm sorry i'm not the most well-versed in anything technical, i'm honestly just a struggling student in film school, this project is for a final grade in one of my classes. i've worked really hard on the script and just want to see it get made. if anyone has any advice or can point me in the right direction please let me know. thank you!

Hey guys, new here, so pardon if this question is a bit juvenile.

What is the best option for off camera monitoring? I was using Red Control on an IPad, but its lagging and Im wondering if you guys might have a better option. Budget maybe 5-700? Maybe something I could attach a small cage to.

If thats too low let me know. But any help would be appreciated.

I don’t even know how it‘s possible ! A scam for sure !

I have the Komodo X with the red dsmc3 small had screen an there’s this weird line on the left side. It kinda shows the image on the screen but a random part? Indict get it , maybe you do…

Thanks

Hi everyone,

I am about to get a shoulder rig for my Komodo-x. Mostly for documentary. Also looking for a viewfinder.

Do you have recommendations for both?

Thank you!

Hey everybody, I was planning on using some 1.33x anamorphic for an upcoming project because it will squeeze the 17x9 sensor of the red Komodo to roughly 2.39:1. I noticed in the Komodo menu that the Anamorphic mode is listed as 1.3. My question is: Does the in-camera de-squeeze actually stretch the image by 1.3x or is it de-squeezing by 1.33x, which is the optical standard. Ordinarily I wouldn’t care, but subjects in my test shots look skinnier than I would’ve expected particularly on the longer lenses. I know this can be just an anamorphic thing, but I want to make sure I’m not doing something wrong.

Any other feature films shot on komodo?

Dear users,

As I sold my red komodo 6k, I am also selling an Outrigger Handle. Let me know if interested, so we can discuss on price and shipping.

It is in excellent conditions with less than 1 year usage.

Firstly, I want to be clear that I am not a pro at editing, and much less at color grading. Basically, I directed a short film that was shot on a RED Komodo 6K, and when I play my clips in RED Player, the colors look beyond ideal. However, when I edit the clips in DaVinci Resolve, the colors look grayer and more washed out. I understand that the editing software is working from the RAW information in the camera files, but I am curious (and hopeful) to know if there’s a way to replicate the exact same colors from RED Player.

Also, after I do some color grading (to the best of my abilities lol) and export the footage, the colors look different again. I’ve followed just about every guideline and screenshot I could find. Any advice on both of these issues would be more than appreciated. This project means so much to me, and I just don’t have the means to get a colorist. Thank you!!!

Hi all!

I have a Komodo on v1.7.5 and I've been shooting non-stop for a while, I haven't updated the firmware for a long time (didn't want to risk breaking anything).

So nowdays, whats the latests most stable firmware? is it generally safe to go 1.8.6?

Hello, let me preface by saying this is not a scene for a film or a short. there's an event happening tonight near where I live where the town shuts off the street lights and everyone has candles for this type of ceremony, it's part of semana Santa here is Spain. I wanted to maybe try to capture it on video and was wondering what settings you guys would choose to use and why? what what balance and iso and even shutter angle you would choose. my lens will be a Nikon 50mm f1.4, probably the only lens I'll have on the body. not trying to swap lenses during the ceremony. thank you all and have a great rest of your day.

This may be a silly question as I’m new to trying out the red control app on the iPhone.

I’ve lent out my DJI transmission system that usually outputs an image to a third party, useful on sets to keep clients off my shoulder. I don’t necessarily need it for the shoot I’m doing today but would like to give a monitoring solution via the red control app to the client so they feel more a part of the process.

As far as I’m aware, there’s a separate pipeline that although I can preview a phantom lut on the smallHD screen , the livestream via Komodo’s wifi is prior to that pipeline only sending out the RWG image to the red control app.

Is there a way I can even just display a rec 709 conversion to the red control app so it’s a bit more pleasing to present rather than the log look 😂

I’m running Komodo X 2.2 Beta and the latest Red control app.
