Canon Cinema EOS C300 Mark II Camcorder Body with Dual Pixel CMOS AF EF Lens Mount

Dual Pixel CMOS AF Technology   

It provides continuous AF (Autofocus)   function for all autofocus lenses, using Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology. A new   AF Lock setting also lets you change the image framing while holding the   desired focus. This feature is ideal for users who regularly shoot with   smaller crews, who shoot moving subjects, or who want smoother, more   natural-looking autofocus.
Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology features a   CMOS sensor that consists of an array of pixels that each feature two   separate photodiodes. By continuously comparing their outputs during AF mode,   phase-difference autofocus helps ensure non-blurred images and smooth focus   transitions even when the talent and/or camera are moving. The new feature   places a high priority on maintaining sharp focus while providing a natural,   smooth autofocus movement with select Canon EF lenses – including   newer-generation STM lenses – which offer even smoother and quieter   operation.

Canon Super 35mm CMOS Sensor
   
   

Modeled on the Super 35mm 3-perf motion   picture film standard, the Canon CMOS sensor has an active image size of 24.4   x 13.5mm. It features 4096 x 2160 resolution to deliver Cine 4K images, as   well as supporting Ultra HD (3840 x 2160), and Full HD (1920 x 1080)

Dual Canon DIGIC DV 5 Image Processor

The camera features Dual DIGIC DV 5   processors to handle the internal data processing.

Designed with Filmmakers in Mind

A logical layout of buttons and dials   make operation simple. A lock switch turns off all controls except the   recording button and function buttons. Small ridges between the buttons help   prevent activating functions by mistake. A backlit display panel is great for   low-light viewing. A tally lamp is clearly visible from the side or behind   the camera.

Compact & Modular Design
   
   

The EOS C300 body is compact and easily   handheld at just over 3 lb. There is a bright 1.55 Megapixel electronic   viewfinder, and the camera comes bundled with a removable combination 4″,   1.23 Megapixel monitor and control panel. The camera also has a removable   handgrip with a control dial and function buttons for handheld shooting in   DSLR style, or remove it and use the supplied thumb rest for completely   stripped-down shooting. The EOS C300 has a manually operated built-in neutral   density (ND) glass filter offering 1/4, 1/16, and 1/64th steps of filtering.   Handheld or using a tripod, on location or in the studio, even on 3-D rigs,   the EOS C300 fits shooting situations that are challenging for larger   cameras.

Ultra-High-Resolution EVF
  

The EOS C300 features a 0.46″, 1.17   Megapixel color EVF and 100% field of view coverage for comfortable viewing   and accurate judgment of composition, focus, and color. The angle of the   viewfinder is adjustable for additional user comfort. EVF adjustments include   brightness, contrast, color, and backlight (Normal or Bright).

Rich Audio Controls
   
   

When mounted to the EOS C300 Mark II   camera, the included control unit provides two XLR audio inputs with +48V   phantom power. A 3.5mm microphone terminal is also built in to the camera.   Audio is recorded uncompressed in 16-bit PCM format at 48 kHz for high   fidelity sound. Both XLR inputs, as well as the mic terminal have the option   for automatic, as well as full manual gain control (-Infinity to +18dB).   Additionally, a 3.5mm headphone terminal with 16 volume settings offers   accurate audio monitoring.

Rugged, Durable & Quiet
   

   
   

The EOS C300’s dust-proof and splash-proof   design includes sealing gaskets around the edges of all access covers, dials   fitted with o-rings on the axis of rotation, and button key-tops sealed with   rubber. The EOS C300 also features a built-in silent cooling system with a   heat-dissipating duct in the center of the body, a graphite sheet that   conducts sensor heat towards the heat sink, three ventilation holes, and a   cooling fan that pulls hot air out through an exhaust opening. All air is   directed through a discrete pathway that keeps dust particles away from   sensitive components. Your camera runs cool, quiet, and clean.

CFast Memory Card Recording

The camera records to CFast 1 cards   through two slots

Full Manual Control & Focusing Aids
   
   

The camera has a Waveform Monitor (WFM)   function that shows the overall brightness of a scene, with RGB Parade   Display to view red, green, and blue brightness or Spot Display to isolate   the luminance distribution of a chosen area. The Vectorscope (VS) display   shows real-time hue and saturation levels. For sharp focus, the EOS C300   camera has two peaking modes and a magnified focus assist function. An Edge   Monitor Focus Assist provides both a waveform representing the overall degree   of focus and a red waveform that represents focus in three specific areas   displayed on the camera’s 4″ LCD monitor. To maintain proper highlight   exposure, it offers a zebra bar feature as well.

High-Speed, Slow-Motion, Time-Lapse &   Stop-Motion

Beyond the advantages of file-based   recording, the camera offers a number of creative possibilities in   post-production including Slow & Fast motion.
   

Connectivity
   
   

To connect to external monitors, switchers,   VTRs, and NLE systems with SDI inputs, the EOS C300 features   industry-standard HD-SDI output, genlock, and timecode terminals, plus audio   terminals with linear PCM recording. Timecode and genlock enable synchronized   multiple camera capture, perfect for multiple-camera shots, 3D acquisition,   and more. The HD-SDI sync terminal can be switched to output to HD Sync, HD   Y, Black Burst, and Composite.
