Thanks for sharing this. Battery swap = so helpful given long initialization time on K-X and VR. On pre-record I wish there was some on-screen indicator when you go into pre-record. I seem to turn it on and then forget it at least once on every shoot! I realize the on-screen record button and framing change to yellow once you press the shutter but it would be helpful to have some indicator indicating you’re even in pre-record mode.

Thanks for making this video! I'm really looking to getting into the RED ecosystem this being one of my first future/big purchases. I was wondering is there anywhere that has a breakdown of what you need to just get started? or your rig setup? I just don't want to buy the body, card, screen and batteries, but need something additional to get going and start shooting projects. Thanks!

Minimal fan noise. It has never been an issue for me. Definitely much quieter than any light I’ve used for sure

Can you custom white balance on a RED camera? Like with using a gray or white card?
@BrakoFilm 3 ай бұрын
Yes. It does a good job of just reading the scene in my experience as well. But it’s also not necessary while shooting Raw because you can change Kelvin later with no damage to the image.

Talk to me in detail on how you're using the NTG, specifically. Are you running Mic or Line for your input? How much gain are you using on the microphone for optimal results? I've had some floor noise I can't seem to get rid of. I've tried lowering the gain on the mic and raising it on the camera - and vice versa. I seem to get artificial clipping and no fidelity on the audio. Are you running it -20 on the mic?
@TylerEdwards 10 ай бұрын
mic input phantom power. usually keep it at around -4db
@FlyingLapMedia 10 ай бұрын
@@TylerEdwards how are you not frying your mic with phantom power? Isn't the ±48V way too much for the NTG? And the NTG has the internal lithium ion battery, no? Why use phantom? Sorry for the 20 questions. Just been struggling on getting clean audio on my Kx. Which wasn't the case with the first gen Komodo.
@TylerEdwards 10 ай бұрын
I am using the NTG5 which requires phantom power. I haven't tried the video mic ntg yet, but I ordered a cable from mutiny which I plan to test.

Hey Tyler, have you had issues not being able to power your NTG 5 directly into the camera? I have the NTG 5 and I'm using the Komodo Blue XLR to 5 pin directly into the Komodo and I don't get any audio feedback.

Also ISO is only Metadata and can be changed in post with R3D. So whether it's 12k or 100 it won't matter to the actual image file as it doesnt burn into the image. The exposure should be controlled with the T stop and shutter.
@TylerEdwards 9 ай бұрын
You’re correct it can be changed. But changing it in post will change the middle grey point affecting the information in highlights vs shadows. That’s why even if you can change it, getting the look/exposure in camera with the combo of iris, shutter, ND and ISO is still a good idea if you’re trying to get the most highlight or shadow information
