I own the Mokose C100 and C200 4k cameras and both produce video that is 10X better than what is demonstrated in this video. I don't know why all the sample videos on TH-cam look so blurry and soft when both cameras produce clear and sharp video with excellent color via HDMI. It's also better to put the camera in photo mode when using it to stream from the HDMI since both cameras stutter a bit in video mode (recordings made to the SD card are smooth). Maybe a future firmware update will fix it. Both cameras also take decent photos if you mount them on a tripod since any camera shake blurs the photo. I use my C200 with an Atomos Ninja 5 and the results look almost identical to my Sony A6400. The 2X zoom on the Ninja 5 helps nail the focus. Also, if you're looking at replacing the stock lens, make sure it has an IR filter since they mounted one on the stock lens and it's not part of the camera. One more thing - the C200 (IMX577) has slightly better color and dynamic range than the C100 (IMX377 sensor).
Thought I’d leave the same comment to you since you’ve got experience… I’m not familiar with lenses and what not. I’m a newbie I guess I should say. I’m looking to do a multi cam stream of my work (I build stills) I’m looking for a camera option for the stationary up close ‘detail’ shots. I’m considering trying the mokose. Should I get the version with 10-50mm telephoto zoom? Or is this one sufficient ? Or maybe I should try both lenses ? What will give me the best up close quality with these cams you think ?
I'm watching this in the 1080p/60 setting but all of the video footage here looks really poor. It's hard to get an idea of the quality of the camera when it looks like a bunch of 480p footage upscaled to 1080.
I have three of them hooked up to a switcher and one of the pictures looks different than the others. Do you know how to reset to factory default settings?
Any idea how to make audio work over HDMI with this camera? I have to use HDMI due to the 40' length of the distance to the PC, as USB won't work at all. USB on a short cable works with audio, but when I connect this camera via HDMI there's no audio.
So with this HDMI port, does that mean it will allow recording while streaming through the HDMI port to an external monitor? Basically you can mount this on a back windshield to record traffic behind you, but also see that live view on an external monitor while it's recording?

Topside hole mount is the recording monitor or video assist , preferred a Black magic design video assist monitor , hopefully to can create your own cinema.
Nice review! It looks like a great cam for its price. Also, I would use it as webcam for streaming and with the hdmi 4k settings I think its better than a lot of webcams out there.
I got one those to use as a drum cam for our church but our blackmagic atem studio hd won’t recognise it no matter what I do .. do you have any thoughts ? It would be greatly appreciated.. I am using 3 Sony a series 1080p 24fps .. I tried both hd options in the MOKOSE 1080 24p but no luck 😢
@@geekazine Same problem here, we tried 1080p with 50 frames and 60 frames, but no luck using the Blackmagic Atem Production Studio 4K on HDMI with several cables. We also tried a HDMI to SDI converter, but still no image unfortunately. What kind of settings are you using in the camera (and Atem mini)? 1080P50?
That's the C-mount lens Jeff. The pix on the sellers website show the mount ring also remove for the CS (C-Short) mount lenses. Any info on colour profiles and what the footage looks like in 4K? Really want to have a go with a nice fast Cosmicar (Pentax) prime, or one of the "16mm film" TV lenses from the '70's. I think it'd make an great Crash Cam, or maybe host-cam for our motorsport streams. (Stewart on OH)
I'd like to use a camera like this in a recording studio, connected to a TV for being able to see the musicians from the control room. Do you think it could be a good one to use ? It looks good for close shots (less than 1m) but could it be nice for seeing an entire room ? (say 6/7m long x 5m wide). Thanks !
@13:21 - WAIT - can I power bank to the USB while sending out signal from HDMI or not?? I'm positive about this product and also a bit confused by this review around 13:21 -please advise
@@PhillipSierra underwhelming, please spend your money elsewhere. The white balance and focus is a struggle and if you do happen to set them right then you must be always at the same distance to the camera or everything goes out of focus. Too much of a hassle
honestly these usb cmos cameras from ELP, OSY, etc are all good considering the alternatives such as webcams (have shit quality in the low cost ones and decent in the higher costing ones) or actioncams (can be as worse, good or better, but don't have the plug and play aspect). I wish these companies would create some true consumer webcams, with some marketing behind them. It's especially a good time now, when the pandemic only is getting worse and people are just having to buy these trash webcams, that popped out during the last few months.
@@geekazine I'm glad you did a visual of you performing. I've been wanting to record private concerts and I'm hoping this is the way to go. Is the sound we are hearing of your performance, from that camera? I hope I hear from you, Best, Yolanda from Oakland California
Good work as usual! Well, I want to broadcast directly with this camera over my network. with my other cameras i go to the netgear network switch (network cable) and from there to the router. But how do I get from the HDMI output to the network switch? are there suitable adapters?
I saw another review for a different version of Mokose that said you don't need to download a software and its default settings for it are good out of the box. I'm guessing this one is similar

If that is the best footage you can get from that cam, its garbage.
Thanks for the review tho, and this is what I wanted to see. Saved me 150 bucks.

my camera wont stream through my atem extreme , i hooked it up to laptop direct using usb and 2nd time with hdmi and still wont stream ?

Is there any way to rotate the picture if camera is mounted upside down?
Nice review! It looks like a great cam for its price. Also, I would use it as webcam for streaming and with the hdmi 4k settings I think its better than a lot of webcams out there.
What size and make of TF memory card do you use for the camera? I am trying to figure out what TF card to get. Can I use a 256GB SD card?
Can this be plugged into a Atem Mini? Thank you
teh TF card is that for HD recording?

I replied in another comment. You might need to get a video converter.

this camera supprt open cv or phyton code?
is there a way i can use this to work with my phone to transfer videos over there without a computer?
Also hoping to use this as a drumcam through the Atem mini pro. How do you like it in that setting? Decent wide angle? Thanks
hey I am a little lait to this video but can you plug it directly into a tv as a security cam?
How's it looking a few weeks later? I've seen this around and considered picking up 3-4 of these for a multi cam setup.
I need some new lenses. This one works as an overall shot.
can you connect this camera with yolobox?
can this camera live stream from usb to PC ?
Mantap

I didn't get a color profile on it. I suppose I could run some tests to see how it fairs, but it's working very well for what I bought it.
@@geekazine Seems so new, there's not even scripts yet for it on DashCamTalk forum.
Wow looks amazing!!!
Thanks
If you connect it directly via HDMI to a screen / a TV, does it have a noticable latency at all?
No latency for me.

It looks good for close shots (less than 1m) but could it be nice for seeing an entire room ? (say 6/7m long x 5m wide).

You might need a wide lens for it, but I don't see why it wouldn't work.
Wow, I ended up here looking for a camera for this EXACT reason. Did you end up going with this camera and did you end up swapping out the lens?
@@rdbram824 I ended up going with a GoPro Hero 5 Black and it's perfect :)

If I'm streaming 3 feet from the camera and I'm moving around in my chair, this is manual focus, so would it go in and out of focus?
It can, but small movements are not a big deal.
All of the captured footage shows 30 fps.
Can this camera be adapted to a Microscope ????
nice.
Thank you! Cheers!

Does it record audio too or only video
Only video
