When comparing Canon EOS R5 C and RED Komodo, which one is better?
Weight is really important when it comes to cameras, since you need to be able to hold it for extended periods and carry it about. Canon EOS R5 C is the lighter camera with a weight of 680 g compared to the weight of RED Komodo which weighs 950 g. This means that EOS R5 C weighs 28.42% less than Komodo.
Winner: Canon EOS R5 C
Regarding weight: A heavy camera can be a pain to carry around and can also make your wrists start aching after using the camera for a long time. Just make sure that the camera you choose to buy isn't too heavy when combined with the lens you want to use.
Both RED Komodo and Canon EOS R5 C have the same lens mount; Canon RF. This means that lenses with this mount will fit both cameras.
Winner: Tied
Regarding lens mount: The camera's lens mount determines which type of lenses you can attach to the camera. Popular lens mounts include Canon EF and RF, Nikon Z and F, Sigma L, Micro Four Thirds, and the professional PL mount.
Winner: Tied — both have this feature
Regarding internal raw recording: The ability to record raw video internally is found in cameras such as Blackmagic models. It takes up more storage space but is also more flexible afterwards. We don't think internal raw video recording is a requirement.
