  • Most common question I get is, which camera should I get? The OG Komodo or.. the Komodo X, hopefully this video helps make that decision a bit easier

    To be 100 percent honest when i saw the FIRST SHOT of a, I thought “this is gonna be hard”. As SOON AS. I saw the FIRDT SHOT of CAMERA B, it was IMMEDIATELY EVIDENT that it was in the Komodo X. When it got to the dark shots and i saw how much more dynamic range camera b had, it was nail in the coffin.

    Or keep the og and get a high speed camera with it rather than have just the komodo x for the cost difference

    Did they fix the problem with unplugging and adding peripherals like monitors etc so it doesnt cause an electrical surge??

      no, thats going to be something for ever, and it's the same with other higher end cameras, best to just the right procedure to avoid headache.

    Always want to new heat.......it cost though lol. Somewhat will boil down to ones ability to grade red code raw ...... push and pull. Keep having to tell myself i don't have to have the newest to tell a great story or capture. Yeah i'd love to update.

    Cam A is OG because of the greenish tint and Komodo X is a bit more to magenta. if you know this you see it in seconds. But for your shots i like the OG more

  • @Obriezy

    This was the dopest most honest review! I like you did this without having to trash the OG. Like your the first I saw who didn’t trash the OG while also bigging up the X. I got my OG and I’m loving it. Once the budget gets better I can pull a trigger on the X soon. But image wise you can do a lot with the Komodo and I’d really be getting the more the higher frame rates than for the image. Thanks brother keep pushing 🙏🏽

      That’s what’s up man thank you 🙏🏾 I love the OG like love! It’s an amazing camera! People need to understand these cameras are a tool, and each tool has a specific job… once you understand that you’ll stop hating on cameras

    I caught that the X was B solely cause of the skin tones mainly

    @mikethelycangaming5703 11 місяців тому +1

    Camera B is the Komodo x you can tell by the skin tones. I’ll probably pick up the OG first then the X later so I can dip into the Red realm

    you shoot a bit so much wide open it seems. the fotos is out of focus often times in your sample video. both cameras look great but i though camera b was looking better quite a bit

    • @FlashForwardmg
      @FlashForwardmg  Рік тому

      Yeah due to how dark it was at the 2 locations we shot wide open, was also trying to achieve a shallow depth of field, so you can say it was done on purpose 🙌🏾

    Komodo X IS camera B. B has more dynamic range. more softening or smoother skin and more flicker from the lights.

    Man I have the Komodo and just bought the Komodo X,😑 and I’m already having buyers remorse, the only differences I’m seeing that is a major is the frame rates, smh but anyway I just gotta look at it as I have an A Cam and B Cam, great video bro!

      I fly mine on the RS3 pro with a canon 16-35mm lens, I can keep the BP batteries on and get it balanced with full clearance on the back. Quick and simple to set up

      og komodo's rec709 is too saturated@@colourberry

    • @cruisechill1813
      @cruisechill1813 Рік тому

      @@colourberry not true for me. A simple colour transform from redlog3g10 to rec709 and the skin tones have a golden green yellow look. Also the reds are too saturated, the blues are too purple and the greens are too cyan. It takes a lot of work to get accurate colours. Probably why so many people stuggle with the camera because you cant just chuck on the lut or transform it and the colours be perfect. Its not true unfortunately.

    • @cruisechill1813
      @cruisechill1813 Рік тому

      I must note though that this could be a limitation of the gamma curve because when i look at the footage in rec 2020 the colours are more accurate. So rather than a limitation of the camera it could be the compression of the conversion to the gamma 2.4
