RED debuts upgraded KOMODO-X, Mackie shows off the DLZ Creator adaptive digital audio mixer, and Hobolite is now available at B&H.
Week of May 14, 2023
Nikon's huge Z8 announcement last week caused so much excitement that we are still producing new content about it. But there are some key new items that have caught the world's attention this week. RED is at the top for us, with an upgraded KOMODO-X model that brings the brand's tiniest cinema camera a bit upmarket. Meanwhile, Mackie is looking to impress in the digital audio mixer market with the DLZ Creator. Last, Hobolite, a newer company specializing in quality and attractive LED lights for creators, is now available at B&H.
RED KOMODO-X gives the compact cine camera serious upgrades
RED's original KOMODO signaled a huge shift for the camera manufacturer. The KOMODO featured many standard components such as media slots, was ultra-compact, and was designed to be picked up and used right away without building a whole rig. The KOMODO-X makes that camera even better by gaining some features from the bigger DSMC3 cameras.
Here's a rundown of the upgrades:
-
Updated 6K Super35 Global Sensor CMOS sensor w/ double the frame rates
-
Improved dynamic range of 16.5+ stops
-
Adoption of CFexpress Type B (instead of CFast 2.0)
-
Longer body with addition of V-mount battery plate
