These kits and accessories are cross-compatible with both the RED KOMODO-X and the original KOMODO, adding value and versatility for users.
Key features of the Misfit Kick Mk II include 360-degrees of rotation for precise filter placement, compatibility with various sizes of industry-standard filters, and separate tracks for each filter tray allowing for smooth and independent adjustments. The Misfit Kick 360 Mk II’s expansion capabilities allow for up to three stages, with two being rotatable, providing filmmakers with unparalleled control over their image.
For those in the field, the Misfit Kick Mk II stands out with its high-grade carbon fiber frame, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of production while remaining easy to maintain. Full light protection is achieved with the addition of side and bottom flags, complete with extendable wings.
