Building the Ultimate RED KOMODO-X Rig with Wooden Camera Elite Accessory System

In this video from Tyler Edwards, he walks through his updated RED Komodo X rig, showing how smart accessory choices can turn a compact cinema camera into a powerful production tool. At the core is the Wooden Camera Elite Accessory System, providing a solid baseplate, dovetail mount, and plenty of mounting points for flexibility.

Power comes from Core SWX Nano X batteries paired with the Teradek Bolt 6 wireless system and a D-Box for clean power distribution. A B-Box adds timecode and run-stop control, letting him trigger record from his Kinefinity SDI E Viewfinder for efficient handheld shooting.

For audio, Tyler uses a RØDE NTG5 mic and a Mid49 XLR adapter, while the Tilta Nucleus Nano II handle controls focus on the Laowa Ranger 17-50mm T2.9 lens. His Mofage POCO PL Adapter with built-in variable ND keeps the build compact and clean—no matte box needed.

Tidy cable management and modular design make this rig ideal for a wide range of shoots. If you’re looking to build out your Komodo X, this setup is packed with smart, practical ideas.
