DOPE BUILD BRO!!! I wish I would’ve saw this before I pulled the trigger on my audio solution for the OG! Would’ve saved me a ton of headaches! Lol! Either way I think your configuration is dope. A lot of people over buy and become gear based but you used the basic tools needed to get the job done which is the main focused. Keep the videos coming! Can’t wait to see the docs! Congratulations and SALUTE! 🫡🎥
I appreciate it! Thanks so much! Happy to help 😁
Great Rig Great Video! Thank you!
Thanks David!
Is there a reason why you choose all this rigging vs an FX6? Im looking for documentary rig options. It's a legitimate question.
I wanted to go the red route for the codec, and image quality. The nice thing about the Komodo is it’s form factor allows it to be rigged up for just about any situation. For what I’m doing it made more sense than an fx6. But that’s just my situation
Please check the 3.5 to xlr and xlr to 3.5
From what Ive learnt, one should not convert it as it has quite a few cons going for it
The Komodo’s pre amps aren’t great but I haven’t had any issues using it
Is there any way to secure the Meike adapter to the camera baseplate? Also, does the Meike also cut IR?
Do you know an L bracket that is about the same size that you use but the screws are not mounted verticaly on one end ? ( so both of the L parts have the same screw hole orientation ?
Smallrig might have something like that. You could check their website out :) I don't know of a specific one though
Checked smallrig , tilta and a lot more manufacturers , no luck . @@RileyEndicott
Why why why would anyone rig this camera to cover the top screen. No need to if you use a handle on a nato and can then be off set. I find the idea of covering the screen truly moronic. The idea that to make an adjustment you would move the handle makes absolutely no practical sense. Even using an alternative screen for control misunderstands how useful the top screen is. ???
Ken, everything is going to be okay. I appreciate the deep concern. I’ve never had anyone so invested in my top handle. I’m touched… In all seriousness I can comfortably reach the screen without sliding the handle back - moving it back just makes it even easier. I’ve done quite a few shoots with it and it’s reduced friction in my on set workflow.
@@RileyEndicott thanks so much for your response. Its greatly appreciated. Tbh i am not invested really in your top handle despite being a Komodo owner. I am concerned with the proliferation of dubious ideas and design and curious how they spread across social media in particular. Most bad design or bad implementation seems to require a suspension of disbelief that is kind of similar to a terrible plot twist in a marvel comic blockbuster or in something that is simply badly written. On the one hand the suspension works so long as we dont think about it too much but it requires us to lose for at least a significant period of time our ability to be rationally critical and lower our cognitive expectations to make something appear to work when it clearly couldn’t given any kind of critical analysis. Your response presumably recognises a compromise but their is always a danger to want to continue that same suspension. It simply makes no sense at all in terms of rational design and implementation level but it doesn’t really matter as people are expected to ignore it and be carried along in this case by the larger narrative represented by a longer discussion of your rigging choices and a focus on ways to make things work. Sure i get it. Life is too short. Rather than taking the comments too academically maybe it is worth pausing and just consider that having a top screen designed by RED is there for a reason and that it is probably sub optimal to cover it with any kind of obstruction let alone a top handle that presumably as with any other camera design isnt designed as an obstacle to be constantly moved whilst in use despite your work around. I am not sure even RED thought this through properly as their own sales team constantly cover the screen on built out rigs. But they are not operators or filmmakers and they probably never intended this camera to be used primarily this way. Their design process requires or at least benefits from honest and critical feedback from professionals actually using their products. I am sure that the camera was never designed with a top handle in mind as it was primarily a crash cam likely to be on a remote head or drone hence the remote app capability. These other solutions have the contours of a hastily thought out compromise by third party accessory companies that is largely unresolved. Hardly surprising when the actual use of any object is adapted for a use case it was never designed for. Beyond that everything is a work around and my suggestion in no more than one that seeks to maximise what is there and create a different option.
