Highlights of the Camera The Canon Digital Cinema Camera EOS C700 / EOS C700 PL / EOS C700 GS PL / EOS C700 FF / EOS C700 FF PL has been designed to meet the demanding needs and highest expectations of industry professionals. The following are just some of the many features that will help turn your creative vision into reality. 4 4K Recording System with Cinema Quality Advanced CMOS sensor The camera features a Super 35mm-equivalent CMOS sensor (Z[), a Super 35mmequivalent CMOS sensor with global electronic shutter (]) or full-frame CMOS sensor (qr). With the sensor's effective pixel count of 8.85 megapixels (Z[ ]) or 18.69 megapixels (q r) and the Triple DIGIC DV5 imaging engine, this camera delivers superb images. Because the camera uses oversampling to produce 4K video from the 18.69-megapixel sensor (qr), the image quality is outstanding. Thanks to Canon's high sensitivity and low-noise technology, the camera can record at a wide range of sensitivity settings, from ISO 160 to ISO 256001. Using one of the Canon Log gamma curves you can make the most of the image sensor's characteristics to obtain a very wide dynamic range. 1 The ISO speed range depends on the model and can be extended. Interchangeable lenses With some models featuring different lens mounts and shutter mechanisms, the camera offers the freedom to use the lens you want in order to achieve exactly the look you want. With the models featuring an EF lens mount (Zq), you can use over 100 high-quality lenses from Canon's EF and EF Cinema lens series. Whereas the models featuring a PL lens mount ([]r) let you use a variety of industry-standard PL lenses. Using the global shutter model (]), you can shoot fast-moving subjects without worrying about rolling shutter distortions or artifacts. And using compatible broadcast lenses2 and EF Cinema lenses (A 240), you will be able to control the aperture and zoom using the camera3. The camera also supports the use of anamorphic lenses (A 122). 2 The optional MO-4E or MO-4P B4 Mount Adapter is required. 3 Depending on the lens used, you may need to connect the 12-pin camera interface cable to the camera. Choose your format - XF-AVC or ProRes Using the XF-AVC format, the camera can use two codecs (H.264 Intra-frame and H.264 Long GOP) so you can select the video configuration from YCbCr 4:2:2, 10 bit, RGB 4:4:4, 10 or 12 bit, or YCbCr 4:2:0, 8 bit, to suit your creative needs. Using Apple's ProRes format, you have the choice of the 10-bit ProRes 422 HQ codec, 12-bit ProRes 4444 codec and 10-bit ProRes 422 codec. RAW recording and output exceeding 4K You can use a recorder docked with the camera (A 21) to record RAW video at over 4K4. At the same time, you can apply a LUT that meets the ACES standard to video output from the MON. terminals or the HDMI OUT terminal to use this video output for on-set color grading (A 22). 4 The resolution of RAW recordings depends on the model. Recording media The camera features two CFast card slots and an SD card slot. It records main recording clips (XF-AVC or ProRes) on the CFast cards. When you insert two CFast cards in the camera, the camera can record simultaneously on both cards (double slot recording), or it can switch automatically to recording on the other CFast card when a CFast card becomes full (relay recording) (A 52). In addition to the main recording, you can activate the simultaneous sub recording (A 71). Sub recording clips can be recorded on the CFast card (XF-AVC Intra) or on the SD card (XF-AVC Proxy). Operability and Adaptability Expandable modular design The sturdy camera body was designed with ease of use and expandability in mind. It features a multitude of screw holes of different diameters on its top and bottom plates to offer a large number of options for attaching additional accessories to the camera. Using the optional EVF-V70 OLED Electronic Viewfinder (17 mm (0.7 in.), 1920x1080 pixels/ approx. 6.22 million dots), OU-700 Remote Operation Unit, SU-15 Shoulder Support Unit and SG-1 Shoulder Style Grip Unit, you can quickly optimize the camera for one-person operation or for team operation from both sides, depending on your needs (A 38). The camera offers assignable buttons and a customizable USER screen (using the screen buttons) that you can customize to your preferences from a large number of convenient functions (A 127). Optional accessories offer additional assignable buttons. Assign functions that you use often to the assignable buttons you find most convenient to personalize the camera to your needs and preferences.
