RED KOMODO-X 6K (Canon RF)

A pro cinema body that compresses RED color and a 6K Super 35 global-shutter sensor into a compact 1190g package, recording REDCODE RAW at up to 6K80 over a Canon RF mount and CFexpress B. It's built for high-end and rigged productions; stills shooters and beginners should skip it given the cinema workflow, no IBIS, and a single card slot. Run-and-gun handheld also needs rigging and external monitoring, so this is serious capability scoped to a specialized workflow.

Compatibility

Built around Canon RF mount. Make sure the rest of your build uses the same platform before you buy — mismatched sockets, mounts or standards are the most common return reason. Check it in the builder →

Upgrade path

Buying today, the Canon EOS R6 Mark II scores higher for less — the smarter pick in cameras unless you specifically want this one. See it →
