Canon EOS Cinema C700 EF Camcorder

Canon's expertise in image processing culminates in the EOS C700 Cinema Camera, designed for cinema-grade productions. Featuring Canon's EF lens mount with a secure positive-locking mechanism, the C700 ensures minimal play compared to traditional mounts. At its core lies a 4.5K CMOS image sensor, surpassing DCI 4K resolution and offering a dynamic range of approximately 15 stops, ideal for modern 4K and HDR workflows.

Backed by powerful processing technology, the C700 records in 4K at 60p to CFast 2.0 cards using XF-AVC format, with the option for Apple's ProRes formats for streamlined editing. Raw recording is facilitated by Canon's Codex Digital Recorder, seamlessly integrated into the camera's modular design.

Despite its advanced capabilities, the C700 maintains a user-friendly interface, with basic functions accessible via intuitive buttons and more advanced settings easily navigable through a simple selection dial.

With versatile I/O options, the C700 accommodates various production scenarios, from ENG-style run-and-gun setups to high-budget cinema projects. Its modular design allows customization of the form factor to suit individual preferences, with native V-mount battery support for extended shooting sessions.
