For me, it all started witnessing a RED camera in Action, wen a man named Devin Graham aka. Devinsupertramp used one on his Glidecam to shoot extreme sports and nature all around the world. These images where mesmerizing to watch. I wasn’t really shure, what was catching me, but once I discovered the actual brand RED and their ecosystem, I was hooked.
Since I was around sixteen, my first camera of course was not a RED. And it wouldn’t be until five years later.
My actual first camera was a DSLR by Nikon, the D5300. My Step-Grandfather gifted it to me right before he died and I am still using it today to take pictures.
Next came Blackmagick. But back then there was only a handful of options and with my limited budged I had to choose between the two micro cameras. Although the cinema version only shot FullHD (compared to the 4K of the Studio version) It was able to capture RAW, albeit CinemaDNG. But I was hooked with the RAW workflow of editing certain parameters in post, regardless of the “flavor” of RAW. Using this camera was a weird time. I remember looking for a way to get off the tiny Canon LPE-6 batteries and the solution looked like the camera was Frankensteins Monster. A bigger NP-F battery on a dummy, jerry-rigged to the cage behind the camera and the power connection came to the cable-tree blackmagick shipped with the micro cameras. On there were several bus connections for camera control on a drone – and the power connection. Very weird indeed.
Two years after that the Komodo as the forbearer for DSMC3 was announced.
