I agree with every word! I've been on the fence with the A7S3, Komodo, FX6, and C70. Finally landed on the C70 since workflow is my #1 priority. I'm really hoping BMD comes out with something like the C70. Their pocket cams are great, but need NDs and dual audio. And a frickin' IR filter.

@@ReadySetGoPictures I think his point, is that most RED cameras (With all the additional purchases/peripherals to rig it out properly) start crawling into that next price bracket. If you're already spending 10-30k just to have a fulltime rig for bigger projects, you're probably better off with the Alexa Mini LF. (Heck, if you own something like a C70, You can just RENT an Alexa for the bigger projects and It'll probably still save you money in the long run) There's just no comparing the quality. You don't see Roger Deakins filming on a RED. Entry level cinema cameras are getting better and better, High End cinema cameras are getting less and less expensive. And RED is just kinda getting squeezed down into a smaller and smaller place in the awkward middle of the market.

Thanks - it would be the Komodo for me. Coming from still photography, I used to be a medium format shooter but when I bought my first SLR my images suffered because it became too easy and I found myself not concentrating enough. The fault was with me, not with the camera. This looks to be a similar situation and I get the best results when my workflow is slow and considered, so I think the Komodo would be a better match to my mentality. I currently use a C200/Ninja V/Gratical rig with an EOS R as a B Cam.

Dynamic range is actually higher on the canon c70, slightly, so just pointing that out. Also side by side on a top end 4k monitor... in theory there would be a big difference, but there aint. I own both due to client requests, but the c70 is extremely close in the 4k output, but with all the mentioned advantages.. and low light performance. Rolling shutter I think by far is the biggest differentiating difference.

Global Shutter was directly sent to video editors from the Lord.

Can it export raw?

Great video. For others, I suggest asking yourself: What dataset do I need? (Going off Steve Yedlins thing about all cameras basically being data collection devices). If you wish to emulate motion picture film: Komodo, no question. Global shutter is paramount for that. C70s rolling shutter isn't fast, either (15 + ms). If not, forget Komodo. C70!

totally agree! I would add that I like to Steadicam without a vest which is one of various examples when the size of the camera doesn't just affect speed but also whether you can get the shot that way or with that motion. Also AF on a Steadicam or gimbal is valuable when it's as good as canon's. Lastly for me the biggest thing is one thing not even mentioned: the FOV. the c70 has something even the c300mark3 doesn't (btw c300mark3 has a type of raw with things like nd and af etc) and that advantage of c70 is actually the canon rf to ef adapter with .71x lens. That makes every lens be two focal lengths depending on stock or .71x adapter swapped on. Not just that but why do people shoot on anamorphic? not just for flares. it's because it compresses the foreground and background so instead of stuff in back being tinier and foreground huge it makes them more equal, that is so important! getting the full frame image on the c70 with the adapter does boost the aperture too and it lets you use a 50mm with full frame look instead of cropping a 35mm for that same composition. That means that uncropped 50mm is more cinematic in my opinion. that OTS looks better, everything looks better. so yeah that damn adapter means I use the c70 over the c300markiii which I also own (unless I need to do 60 or more fps or raw). Also there is sharpening that can be added in post of course just like you have to remove noise from raw. so keep in mind it's not just more ability to color with red. it's more that you actually have to color with red. you have to remove noise in post. c70 you have to add sharpness and it will probably look better than this comparison if sharpness wasn't added here. I would take the c70 any day of the week over the red and I spend a lot of time coloring. It's not just about how good you are (like someone mentioned that as if skill would determine it) it's about how profitable and efficient you need to be. If your clients don't have budgets for you to pay another person just to pull focus and to denoise in post and all that then don't make your work less efficient and be upside down. as a video company you also have to try to give the most for the best and affordable price too. If you have budget conscious clients you should definitely get the c70. you will give them a lot more for the same money going in. if they get twice the content for the same money they might need that. especially when it's gonna play on someone's insta feed not at 6K. that's my opinion. If you have to spend twice the time shooting, twice the staffing, and twice the time editing you better have four times the budget to pay for all that time or you're just shooting yourself in the foot. Make your deliverable and value better with that client in mind of what they specifically need. and even after all that work that cropped 35mm on that red will not look as cinematic as that full 50mm on the c70 because of the c70 advantage of compressing the forground and background.

Curious if your opinions on this have shifted at all now that the C70 also shoots raw

3:43 Mabey add an update to this, like a KZread "card" saying. C70 firmware-update added Cinema RAW lite.

I'll personally definitely prefer the RED Komodo. I want higher picture quality, I am currently considering between the Komodo/ Komodo-X or the FX9. FX9 - the whole package like you said about C70, but with 6k sensor, Komodo for really good compressed raw codec. The FX9 also has very robust mount so it's nice if I want to add heavy zoom lens, and it's more built for shoulder mounting. Which lenses would you advise with the Komodo which will be like absolute best video quality?

Honestly super underrated channel. Very good information here in this video especially. Right now I’m wanting to upgrade from a canon C100 and have been considering the bmpcc6k, red komodo, c70, and the Sony fx6/9. Idk if you have the capability to do so, but I’d love to see a comparison video on all of those lol I low key fell in love with the Sony fx9 thanks to Potato Jet’s video on it a while back. Price is the only thing that stands in my way on most of these. The blackmagic would maybe be the cheapest out of all of theses, but I’d have to heavily rig it out. Same with the Komodo. I think I’m really looking for something that’s ready for run and gun, and the built in ND filters are a huge factor for me since my C100 has those built in. I think you might have me sold on the c70 😂😅

Lol I’m glade you were able to work that out through your comment. Lol I’d love to test all thoes cameras. I also have the bmpcc6k but I’d have to figure out how to get my hands on the Sony options.

Honestly, after owning the C70 for a month. If I could have only one... it would be the Sony FX6. Which is exactly what I bought. Komodo is coming in next month. But I consider the Red to be less of general use camera. The FX6 does is super flexible... it shoots everything well. Rolling shutter is near 7ms... less than half of the C70. This makes the image appear much more filmic than the C70 as it affects motion cadence. It’s reminiscent of the Venice look without the Venice price. Consider the following: Full frame Vs S35 EVND - the camera can automatically adjust ND without affecting ISO, shutter speed or aperture. A very nice sounding shotgun microphone built into the top handle. Full support for all Multi-shoe accessories. Up to 8 audio channels. Better dynamic range than the Komodo (As per CineD A7S3 is equivalent to Komodo, but better at high ISO) I could go on, but you probably get the idea. I have a review of the FX6 on my channel. I’m working on the C70 vs FX6 video now. Sub to be notified when it goes live. I just don’t think any conversation about the top picks in the $6k price range can be complete without mentioning the best lowlight camera on the market today... the Sony FX6.

It's like shooting raw stills on a DSLR and editing in Lightroom or C1, except for motion capture. And with reasonable compression that makes it doable.. I'd recommend people considering Komodo rent any Red (they all shoot .r3d) and see what they think of the files and workflow.

“trade off of not getting the best sensor at the price point”. Seriously? The Canon DGO sensor is the same one found on the $11,000 C300 Mark III and measures just one stop shy of the Arri Alexa Classic.

Very clear overview, thank you 🙏

What's up BWash. Love your videos. But I think saying you get 'a few more' stops of dynamic range out of the Red Komodo is a bit inaccurate. Especially when you're judging it just by eye. I've seen a few more technical reviews/ comparisons between the komodo and the C70 and the results were always neck and neck, with the C70 winning (If I remember correctly - will find the video and link it below this comment). Either way I think the difference is probably one stop at best. Like you said in this video, I'm also not the most technically inclined shooter out there. So I was super surprised to find that there's more to Dynamic Range than just a raw codec. On that note, I see I'm a little bit late to this post (by a year and a half 😅), but I saw not too long ago that Canon released a Raw Lite codec for the C70. Since you have the camera, I'd love to see you make another video focused on that. Or another comparison video between the R3D from the Komodo and the Raw Lite from the C70. But yeah thanks for this video bro.

Great explanation of both cameras and their best use.

Great video! I was set on the C70 but then found the Komodo. I shoot weddings and am in between if I will have enough time to get the Komodo set up and dialed in. Sometimes you do and sometimes you don't.

wise words Brandon.Great video

If you are not planning to do heavy vfx and very artistic color grading, go C 70. If you see your self shooting big budget music videos and are planning to do short movies or more, go Komodo.

1 year later - I bought a Sony FX3 and LOVE IT. Heck, I just shot a film in s-cinetone and it looks incredible.

Sick comparison video man. I have two C70s and I love this camera so much. Literally do not care about RED cameras anymore. They weight too much and you have to build them just to get everything to look good. My style is run and gun and that’s always how I have filmed.

Agree completely.

We shoot wildlife and chose the C70. The LCD is almost useless outside. Just too damn small and not bright enough - even when jacked up in the menu. Just got Zacuto z-finder so hoping that will fix that issue. Love the form factor of the C70.

Great stuff, curious how you feel with the addition of RAW on C70 now?

I’m planning on revisiting the same topic very soon because of that reason.

What lens did you use when shooting 10:07-10:30?

very nice comparison ! Thanks for sharing

How do you get XLR inputs into the Komodo? The Komodo looks like you need an entirely separate audio rig. Are there any high quality solutions for inputting audio into the Komodo itself?

It's not that expensive to get an audio recorder and timecode sync, but does take a little extra time and education.

Clear and concise! Well done bud! Still happy with my C70 😇 lolol

Brandon! I cant find the Komodo anywhere! I want the C70 as well but the R5 video looks amazing as well. Thanks,,,,,,again! C70 is a nice all in one but the sensor arguement put it in perspective for me.

Great comparison. Subscribing. :) Great advice at the end.

I shoot with the xt4 and the Leica sl2

Yo I totally didn’t realize that you’re in Houston, I noticed in the video you were shooting with magpies and peacocks, I did a shoot not too long ago with them it would be sick to connect!

Good advice. Get the tool that will help you do the job the best. That for me is the C70.

Thank you for your time!

Thanks Brandon. I was all over the map and you helped with my decision making.

Why not compare the Komodo to the BMPCC6K or the ZCAM E2 (S6?) when considering RAW?
