8 Months of filming with the RED Komodo 6K

Фильм және анимация

Buying a cinema camera is always extremely exciting, but also nerve-racking at the same time. Is it worth it in my specific case, will I be happy with it, will it help me grow as a filmmaker? In this video I’m sharing my experience after purchasing the Red Komodo and what I think of it after 8 months of use.

    Agree on all your points - I love my Komodo and I think it's helped me progress as a filmmaker and develop my craft in capturing images. I think it's such a versatile camera and for the image quality you can't really get anything better at this price point.

    Thanks Ed! Totally, I also think that’s the most important quality of a camera - to make you level up as a creative.

    Check out the Hasselblad mod for using the small built in screen on the Komodo. Basically turns it into an EVF or a waist level viewfinder. Granted its more rigging to breakdown/setup but if you're in between jobs it makes for a way more portable and stealth setup.

    Great video! I use the DaVinci speed editor with resolve which is truly a game changer when it comes to shit selection and editing. Changes everyyyything and saves loads of time! I love my Komodo and using resolve and grading my R3D files with ACES space. Just fantastic. Also there are a few great options now for Lidar based hybrid auto focus for cine lenses.

    Yes! We’ve tested the speed editor too - it’s a great piece of tech, I really want to get the new mini color panel that Blackmagic just announced. Also yeah, been eyeing the DJI lidar focus, so might be a great solution for those run and gun scenarios.

    Great video Aya, I've had my mind on the Komodo for a while now. Your thoughts on the Komodo not being good for a solo operator piqued my curiosity. Do you think even with a follow focus wheel and on camera monitor it would be difficult for one person to use?

    Thanks Evan! I don't think it's difficult to use per se - it depends on the experience of the person behind the camera and it just takes some time getting used to. What I was trying to say is that if it'll be mainly used in a run and gun environment, where you have less control over what's happening and the react time is limited, then I'd pick another camera. But it also depends on what your personal style and preference is. Hope that makes sense :)
