RED has simplified compression options, giving users a choice between HQ, MQ, and LQ, each varying compression from low to high, respectively. Getting back to image quality, the KOMODO promises to be among RED's finest with the ability to capture up to 6K at 40 fps using the powerful 16-bit REDCODE RAW format.
Additionally, the touchscreen can be used for quickly changing focus and selecting subjects. Phase-detect systems are known for their speed by measuring and comparing distance and should provide a reliable, accurate system for video production. This includes adapted Canon EF-mount lenses used with a separately available EF-to-RF adapter with electronic communication. Using optional electronic EF-to-RF mount adapters, the KOMODO will even support electronic Canon EF-mount lenses and unlock additional functionality, such as autofocus.Ī first for RED is the ability to use Phase-Detect Autofocus (PDAF) with compatible lenses. The mount will natively support mechanical RF lenses and mechanical EF lenses via the included adapter. The use of the Canon RF lens mount allows the KOMODO to be extremely compact while still enabling compatibility with a vast range of lenses through the use of optional adapters. Wired control is also possible via the USB Type-C port and optional adapters. This is possible through integrated 2.4/5 GHz Wi-Fi.
A top 2.9" 1440 x 1440 touchscreen makes it easy to configure and monitor your footage or you can use the RED Control system for using an iOS or Android device for preview and settings. This means you can simply pop in a CFast 2.0 card into its media slot and you are ready to roll with data rates up to 280 MB/s. Revolutionary for RED is the creation of an extremely compact all-in-one design with the KOMODO. Multiple bug fixes are also addressed with v.1.4.0. Firmware v.1.4.0 also adds support for ARRI-edition Angelbird 256GB CFast 2.0 cards, RCP2 (RED Command Protocol), and Ethernet zeroconf (local-link IP addresses). Note that the RF lenses' Control Ring and Focus Range switch are not supported.
The KOMODO firmware update v.1.4.0 adds Beta support for Canon RF lenses, perfect complements to this lightweight and compact camera. Users can also be certain they are getting RED quality thanks to the ability to record up to 6K at 40 fps, 5K at 48 fps, 4K at 60 fps, and 2K at 120 fps in REDCODE RAW for incredible flexibility in post-production. This sensor can create images with 16+ stops dynamic range and eliminates rolling shutter artifacts. Key to achieving this goal was the use of the Canon RF lens mount and the KOMODO 19.9MP Super35 CMOS sensor which boasts Global Shutter technology. RED has taken fresh steps with the release of the KOMODO 6K Digital Cinema Camera by bringing their legendary image quality and color science into an ultra-compact, all-in-one design that weighs just 2.1 lb measures about 4 x 4 x 4".
