Shooting with the RED KOMODO
The KOMODO earned its place through sheer versatility. It is small enough to put almost anywhere — gimbals, car rigs, tight interiors, crash positions — and its global shutter makes it genuinely useful for fast motion and strobing environments where a rolling-shutter camera falls apart. Indie narrative, music video and action work is where we see it most, frequently as a second or third body alongside a larger camera.
Because of its size, crews often forget it still needs a proper power, media and monitoring plan. Book the support package with it and the day goes better.
RED KOMODO Rental FAQs
What does a global shutter actually get me?
No skew on fast pans or fast-moving subjects, and no banding issues with strobes and some LED sources. If you are shooting action, cars or anything with practical flashing lights, it matters.
Is the KOMODO a good crash or car camera?
Yes — its size and weight are exactly why crews pick it for rigged and crash positions. We rent the mounting and support gear alongside it in Burbank.
Can I match a KOMODO to a larger RED body?
Yes, they are frequently run together. We can advise on settings for matching in post when you book both.
