    One thing on the Komodo X that people really overlook is the 4K ProRes 4444 XQ & 4444. If you don’t want a 6k deliverable but have basically all the colour bit depth you’d need, it’s a great option. So many Hollywood films are shot in this format and as a vfx artist I’ve noticed no discernible difference working with these files vs raw when working with them converted to EXRs in ACEScg colourspace. The files are still large, but I find it’s a great exercise in commitment to your image while still having that flexibility in post.
    If you’re really changing the ISO, colour temp, and having to denoise that heavily in post; then you probably shot it wrong in the first place (unless it’s for creative reasons, in which case you’re good with 12-bit ProRes 4444 anyway).

    Interesting point of view from an owner operator. From a rental perspective, we sold all the Reds and all the Canon C Series because they just sat on the Shelf. Everything has been Sony and Arri lately. Not to say that Red and Canon cameras aren't capable or good ... just the demand is not there for rentals in our market (Southwest). All Sony FX series cameras were rented the most this year.

      In DaVinci 18.5 there’s a new Sony raw control. Basically there’s enough info in the MXF files that resolve can color it as if it were actually raw footy. You can also transcode FX30 footage into mxf files on catalyst browse so there’s you a video Kofi hahaha

      @@TolarRay that’s not how that works. It’s simply just using davincis standard color engine but through the raw tab. Which is still powerful.. it ain’t 16bit raw. You can do the same adjustments through davinci standard color profile and I bet it would look exactly the same. So again, it ain’t actual raw. Raw records everything to the sensor and leaves all the processing to the editor.. the fx3 is still baking the footage on to the sensor and still limits how much data you can play with in post. Not to mention it’s still 10bit.

My only concern is the limited filters out now, but they work for the majority of things. I am really hoping that Red comes out with both more filters as well as some speciality filters. Not dealbreakers, just something nice.
      One other way to look at this is the total cost of great ND filters, and the extra weight / hassle of external matte boxes. Small things really but it helps justify it.

    For the issue with the audio tracks, when you import the FX6 footage, on the Media page select all of the clips, right click > Clip Attributes, go to the Audio tab, then assign which tracks you want to use and which channels to place them in. It's good practice to do that with any professionally recorded audio but most cameras just record stereo scratch audio so nobody thinks about (or needs to think about) assigning tracks. I do it all the time though -- useful for splitting stereo out to mono or working with field recorders where you might have a lav on one channel, a boom on another, a stereo mix on a couple other channels, etc. Only takes a few clicks. I do that and set my color spaces for non-raw clips on the Media page for a color managed workflow right at the beginning of the edit. Hope that helps!

    I prefer a 4k native sensor. The data management is just easier. That said higher resolution sensors do look better as you can down sample and get more dynamic range and finer noise.
    ARRI is the only company with the ability to do low resolution and high dynamic range, as they own the patent for their dual gain technology.
    Canon is doing something similar with the C70 but it doesn't have the same color depth as ARRI which is a 14bit ADC readout and also dual gain.
    That is why at this point I prefer high resolution in the affordable cameras. Once down sampled it simply looks better. The Raptor and Venice get close to ARRI level image with their 8k sensors. I just wish we didn't have to shoot 8k to get a ARRI like image in the first place. Time to get an Amira/Mini

It could have just been a small audio port add on, with an xlr and standard mic jack. So Strange, they could have sold that thing for $500 and made a killing. We all would have bought it to avoid having a top handle all the time and have good audio.

    Komodo does not have a "native ISO"?? Not sure what you mean by that. "Native ISO" means "0db" and every camera has at least one "0db". Some cameras have two "0db" values. (Like a "low" 0b preamped to 800 ISO and a "high" 0db of 2500 ISO.) Regardless, after every sensor's analog pre-amp stage, it has a "0db" digitized raw base. That "0db" can be analog preamped to any value a camera company wants....like 0db =100 ISO or 0db = 800 ISO...etc. But, every camera has at least one "0db" ISO value.

    • @KofiYeboah
      @KofiYeboah  11 месяцев назад

      In raw , your iso value doesn’t change your image necessarily ( there’s a few videos on this including my own) if you pay attention to traffic lights , it’ll only change the viewing on a monitor, b it being able to move back and forth in post , it doesn’t change much, iris, shutter, light and ND will, but ISO in R3D is much like Cine ei, except you can change it in post, I suggest trying it !

    • @DarkSoulsfan111

      @@DarkSoulsfan111 - All sensors take in light (photons) and produce voltages measured in micro-volts. Those analog voltage readings are pre-amped to reach a nominal voltage that is encoded as 0db into the A/D converters. Now, we have a digital data stream to work with. This "0db" data stream is also known as "raw". Now,...those analog pre-amp values can be turned up to equal a higher base (raw) ISO rating or turned down to create a lower base (raw) ISO rating. This is why some cameras have maybe a 400 ISO base 0db and others could have an 800 ISO base 0db rating.

      @@DarkSoulsfan111 - The base 0db value is set at the sensor A/D conversion level. You can't change it. It's programmed into the camera firmware. Raw is literally 0db. Every ISO gain change that you do just adds +6db of gain for each stop. Example. If a camera's 0db is firmware set at 400 ISO, when you change it to 800 ISO, you just added +6db to the video...however, your raw file is still holding at it's base 0db value. In post, your +6db gain addition is added to the raw file on assembly (viewing). You can reverse that added +6db and knock that view back to 0db if you want. This is the beauty of raw. Raw has no gain above 0db burned into the file. Your ISO (aka gain) additions are just meta-data flags for whatever software is opening the raw file. In other words, all gain (ISO) is non-destructive because the raw file is always 0db.

    Another point, RED crops because its raw. You can’t resample 6K into 4K and keep it raw. You can do it with ProRes but, its not RAW. My “joke” has always been, If its not crop, its cr@p! ;) - but that is the reason you must always crop, add sharpening, noise reduction etc on REDs.

    A better comparison would be the Canon C70 to the Komodo X. Half the cost. They both shoot raw, both are super 35 with RF mount, 180 shutter angle, both don’t have their audio stuck in the top handle. The built in ND is 10 stops not 6 (C70 vs. FX6;).

    I think an Atomos Ninja V+ with SDI adapter or splurge for a Shogun Ultra and a 12g SDI cable solve 99% of your FX6 issues. You get an audio solution without the top handle, better screen, 16bit saved as 12bit Prores RAW, different media to save on (There are loads of SSD -> card) adapters, Did I forget anything? On top of this, you get better face detection and auto focus, and the internal ND on the FX is pure gold.

I also wanted autofocus with good face detection, and to nix that top handle so I could put it on gimbal and "easy mode" it myself or put the solution in the hands of a novice and still get a good shot. It 100% works and the auto feature on the internal ND has saved my butt on days where I'm shooting outdoors and the sun keeps going behind the clouds. What else can I say?

    I see the FX6 as a broadcast Television camera with it's built-in ND, TC in and out and built in XLR, that can also do film work. I work mostly in TV. I'm running the FX6 on the RS3 Tilta Ring. I attach the SONY VF to the top of the Ring (nice long cord) and will likely place a Ninja V on the other side near the top handle. That will give me audio, a bigger VF and backup recording.
