+1 on everyone who said "read the specs next time." But hey here's some possible hacks if someone REALLY wanted to force the KX into that role: RF to EF (or PL) mount with VND solves the internal ND issue for most people. Stabilize in post, shoot in 6k. Autofocus with the new DJI Focus Pro and use it on better glass than AF photo lenses with IS, probably even better quality AF. Audio, just get a 32bit float capable mic system and synch audio after, takes like 5 mins, or stop doing el cheapo gigs where you can't hire a proper sound person which should be the case anyways.

@charlesnorm4883Ай бұрын
For someone starting out, an FX3 is more than sufficient. There was a Hollywood sci-fi film that was released last year called ‘The Creator’ that was shot entirely on the FX3, so it is by no means a bad camera. Plus the lens choices within the Sony ecosystem is very good and their attachments are also cheaper. If he is just starting out,I would recommend he get the FX3 and invest in some lights. If he can’t make his work looks cinematic with the FX3 then he might not being getting his full worth on that film course.

The Komodo X is an incredible camera, but definitely not optimal for run'n'gun documentary. For that genre you in a best case scenario want a camera with internal NDs high multiple base ISOs, working auto focus and a multi functional grip you can change your ND filters on, start/stop recording, maybe even use power zoom on and change base ISOs or even ISO in general. Optimally you want an aperture ring without clicks too, so you can adjust your aperture mid shot, otherwise you must adjust your ISO using shockless gain mid shot or use variable NDs if your camera has one built into it (avoid using screw on VNDs - they are toys and not suited for professional use cases because they change how reflective things are without you actually wanting that). That basically sends you over to either Sonys FX6 or FX9 or Canons C80 or C400 on the full frame side - for Super 35 you'd want an FS7, FS5, C70 or C300 I, II or III although the latter dont have very good AF if you want to rely on that. Canons RF-Mount cameras will give you access to better and more flexible lenses compared to Sonys E-Mount lenses. Adapting EF lenses to either mount could also be an option though but you will be left with some limitations. This also only makes sense if you buy these lenses used. Used last gen Super 35 cameras are also very cheap and still hold up well IMO. Its not like they are suddenly bad. They are still all great cameras.

3:12 Just a heads up, I do a lot of gripping and that boom setup is pretty sketchy Typically you want the weight to ALWAYS be armed out over the big leg, no exceptions Deviating from the big leg can cause the entire stand to lean and fall, I've seen it happen too many times Obviously ideally a sandbag on the big leg but I know that's not always possible And you want the knuckle to be on the right side (if standing behind the stand) this is so the weight will fall in the direction that tightens the knuckle, you have it on the left side, this is commonly referred to as a lefty knuckle which means as gravity pulls the weight down the arm will come loose and fall Again I've seen that happen too many times You want these practices to be second nature so I recommend practicing them all the time Rushing is no excuse for unsafe practices that can be so easily avoided Combining all of them makes for a super solid safe stand, but deviating from even one can make a stand unsafe Hope this helps

Boot-up time comments and confusion - I've never used RED or the KX, but I use the FX3 for personal use and $500,000+ scientific cameras at work. I'd wager the long boot-up time is likely due to the sensor employing a global shutter and doing some automatic sensor prepping. In the grand scheme of things, 30 seconds to perform these auto corrections is incredibly fast, so I'm not sure if this is exactly what it's doing, but just a guess. Global shutter sensors are pushing INCREDIBLE read-out speeds, and are thus INCREDIBLY sensitive to radiation (infrared radiation due to ambient temperature) and electronic thermals (resistors changing resistance with temperature, etc). Getting the best image quality possible from a global shutter sensor requires doing a "dark field" correction and a "light field" correction, which "deletes" or "corrects" or "calibrates" the sensor's "baseline" or "background" noise - which is being generated 1) in complete darkness due to the infrared radiation (heat) of the environment and camera body - when in complete darkness, all pixels should be true black, and 2) in complete sensor saturation - when totally saturated, all pixels should be true white. These microadjustments should be applied whenever the camera is in a different environment with different ambient temperatures. The camera also needs to warm up, in a sense, to ensure the corrections are being applied when the body internals are ready.

For those who only bought Red to be more “professional” good luck! Nikon just slashed prices and made it “ProSumer” so people will just have to make GOOD MOVIES!!!

if you shoot the video with fx3 you get to much grain and that shouldnt happen
@WakeUpMatt7 ай бұрын
As long as it’s properly exposed, there shouldn’t be much grain. I’ll be coming out with a video on how to properly expose slog3 soon! :)

Videographers should stick to video cameras. Filmmakers to cinema cameras. You made the right choice.

Komodo X ND situation is a pain but simple and plain people it is not the best tool for videography…it is a set camera simple and plain..stop buying a camera that was meant to be a crash cam on huge sets and turn it into a run and gun..I thought we figured this out by now…because we dont use sony below burano on sets..once u start talkin 50,000 and up…people dont want to see the camera their little cousin shoots his rap videos with

As someone that still shoots with the Sony FS7, I think you could have saved money and gone with the FX30. Especially since you clearly were coming from two super 35 censors. I agree with you on file sizes. Red and Black Magic file sizes are atrocious.

Fx3 is superior in almost every single way. Komodo is a crash cam that can match the real red cine cams Fx3 does it all in a very small package. Makes me want an fx3 even more now, coming from c70 kits
@hhankx7 ай бұрын
People might say, well I guess you do t shoot anything big or have been on a set before. Yeah, and if you show up with a Komodo, you’ll get laughed at when the job is on an arri or dsmc2 or the new raptor. There would never be a reason to pick a Komodo over the fx3. Unless you’re trying to flex
