This Is The $800 RED Komodo Killer. (BMPC 4k)

The RED Komodo is an amazing camera, but this camera costs almost 1/10th of the price and provides similar value and specs. Of course the Koodo will be better in most ways, but the price is the big kicker, and if you need global shutter but cant afford to spend $6,000, this camera is fantastic.

Only downside was the file sizes (being uncompressed raw) were huge. 17mins on a 250gb ssd. I know ssd's have gone cheaper now but they're still huge files. I bought the 2.5k Cc again, which is a little better in terms of size, but the image is still good if not better; and upscaling is not an issue. But yeah no global shutter

The Komodo does not have 16 stops DR. It has 12.5 stops at SNR=2. Unless you are going by the marketing department. But then you'd also have to believe FX3 has 15 stops lol. Check out CineD tests to confirm.

The DR of the camera is pretty limited. I think 10 or less stops. After I own it, any other cameras I had makes me feel like they have unlimited DR.

@jdsmedia Жыл бұрын

100%. Thats why the 2.5k is superior. Specially if you can find the mft model. With a Speedbooster you get around super 35 field of view, one whole stop more light, and more dynamic range.

I hate this camera. Have shot features with it, the original ursa, and the ursa mini 4k. All have the same sensor and it’s the bane of my existence. The highlights clip so ugly and it’s limited dynamic range make it feel like you’re shooting with a DSLR, not a cinema camera. Should have bought a 2.5k😉

It’s OK if you have a limited budget and can work within its limitations. I believe this sensor suffered from the “black sun” issue and fixed pattern noise. Also terrible in low light. Trust me, it’s no Komodo 6K killer lol. I mean seriously LOL. But that said, it’s more about the talent behind the camera, than the camera. Honestly, take a look at the below footage and with a straight face spout off that the discontinued BMDPC4K is a Red Komodo 6K “Killer”. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pJplpKiI3dy0oHU.html

I bought it for 1,500 euros in 2018 for a project and sold it a month for 1,000, it's the worst camera I've tried, very poor sensitivity, non-existent dynamic range, despite being 12-bit raw there is no color depth, don't buy that not even for 200 dollars, it's useless. BMPCC 1080p and BMCC 2.5K are a thousand times better.
