Review Summary
2024-12-14T10:40:41
This cinema camera is absolutely incredible. My first professional cinema quality cameras were the FS7 and FS5 M2, and for the last few years I have been shooting on a mix of R5's and the R3. After years away, the box style cinema camera was calling me back, so I began my search. When I heard that canon was releasing this camera and the price point, I knew I had to give it a shot. I am so glad that I did. Making excellent video is certainly possible on mirrorless cameras, and even preferred in certain situations, but these box style cameras bring connectivity and handheld operation to new levels. I love everything about the C400 so far. I have shot commercial talking heads, high fashion, weddings, and narrative content in a mix of controlled and uncontrolled lighting environments. The results are excellent. It also matches with little effort to the R5 and R3 when shot in clog 3. Mini XLR's haven't caused me any headaches as the adapters are very cheap and easily obtainable. The use of USB-C for the monitor and grip is excellent. I love my RF glass paired with the built in ND. If you are in the canon ecosystem, there is simply nothing better. You will appreciate the attention to detail and amazing capabilities of this camera, no matter the situation you may find yourself shooting in. CANON: please open the USB-C monitor out to enable 3rd part monitor control.

- EOS C400 Cinema Camera -
Innovation, versatility and imaging excellence all merge in the new EOS C400, the full-frame, RF-mount cinema camera tailored for boundless creativity.
The compact camera body is well-appointed and includes Canon's newly-developed 6K full-frame Back-Illuminated Stacked CMOS sensor. The EOS C400 features 6K/60p Cinema RAW Light and 4K/120p internal recording along with Canon's next-generation Dual Pixel CMOS AF II, among other outstanding features. Additionally, the EOS C400 has a variety of interfaces, including return input, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi, enabling control from various Canon and third-party devices.
The EOS C400 is the ideal fusion of both functionality and form, and seamlessly integrates into almost any production with its robust and compact design.
6K Full-Frame Back-illuminated Stacked CMOS Sensor
The EOS C400 is the first Cinema EOS camera to feature the newly-developed, 6K back-illuminated stacked full-frame CMOS sensor, which offers exceptionally low noise. The sensor delivers faster read-out speeds than previous EOS sensors and when compared to a front-illuminated CMOS sensor, the sensor's architecture provides improved sensitivity as it increases light capturing efficiency and improves 4K image quality with 6K oversampling.
Super 35mm and Super 16 Crop Modes
The EOS C400 camera's Full-Frame sensor is capable of capturing footage in both 17:9 and 16:9 formats, and supports the use of Super 35mm and Super 16mm lenses with the appropriate sensor crop modes.
Anamorphic De-Squeeze
The December 2024 firmware update adds a 1.5x anamorphic de-squeeze display assist option, which will make it easier to see how your image will translate when shooting with anamorphic lenses.
Triple-Base ISO (800, 3200, and 12,800)
Our newly-developed, full-frame 6K back-illuminated stacked sensor offers triple-base ISO, which allows the EOS C400 to deliver stunning imagery in a wide range of lighting conditions. With base ISOs of 800, 3200, and 12,800, you will be able to maximize the full dynamic range of the sensor in brilliantly lit or low-light shooting conditions.
Internal Cinema RAW Light, XF-AVC Recording and New XF-HEVC S, XF-AVC S Formats
The EOS C400 can record up to 6K 60P Cinema RAW Light with an additional three Cinema RAW Light recording modes, HQ, ST and LT also with 12-bit recording.
Other recording options include our standard XF-AVC codec which can record in 10-bit 4:2:2 with oversampling from the 6K sensor, creating rich detail and smooth imagery, at frame rates up to 120P, without the need for cropping the image from the sensor. For slow or fast motion recording, the C400 can support up to 4K 120P and 2K 180P.
Additionally, the C400 has two new recording codecs, XF-AVC S and XF-HEVC S. These formats feature an easy-to-manage naming system and folder structure, while recording in the familiar MP4 format and preserving metadata.
Camera-to-Cloud Collaboration
The camera has native compatibility with Frame.io's Camera-to-Cloud (C2C) technology. This feature enables you to send proxy files immediately after recording internally, directly from the camera, for a faster and more secure path from production to post. The efficient proxy files don't require additional processing or conversion, and are available to view, share, and edit remotely between teams in different locations.
CFexpress Type B and SD Cards Slots
CFexpress and SD card slots on the EOS C400 allow for simultaneous recording even when shooting RAW. All recording options are recorded to the camera's CFexpress slot with sub-recording and proxy options available on the SD card slot.
Record Various RAW Types to a CFexpress Card
Cinema RAW Light
High Quality: RAW HQ
Standard Quality: RAW ST
Light Recording: RAW LT
Simultaneous Recording to SD Card Also Possible During 6K RAW Internal Recording
XF-AVC
XF-HEVC S (H.265 / HEVC)
XF-AVC S (H.264 / AVC)
Proxy (XF-AVC / XF-HEVC S / XF-AVC S)
Built-in Mechanical ND Filters
The C400's compact mechanical ND filter assembly is specifically designed for the RF mount's short flange back. Buttons for direct control of ND filters are located on the right-hand side of the camera.
The C400 provides up to ten stops of ND filtration, allowing users to shoot in various lighting conditions. The use of ND filters allows a camera operator to adjust exposure while maintaining the depth of field.
Improved Autofocus with Dual Pixel CMOS AF II
The C400 supports the next generation of Canon's acclaimed Dual Pixel CMOS Autofocus, Dual Pixel CMOS AF II. The back-illuminated stacked sensor provides better light-capturing efficiency, widening the area of the sensor that can be used for AF. Additionally, you can utilize AF while recording in slow or fast motion at speeds up to 4K 120P.
EOS Intelligent Tracking and Recognition
With outstanding speed, precision, and wide AF range, Dual Pixel CMOS AF II uses the EOS Intelligent Tracking and Recognition (iTR AF X) algorithm, developed with deep learning technology, to enable high-performance subject detection. In addition to human eyes, face, and head, the camera can now detect the body of a person and follow them with high accuracy.
iTR AF X Animal Detection
iTR AF X Animal Detection detects the eyes, face, or the entire body of certain animals to enable highly accurate focusing and tracking not affected by subject size or face orientation.
Mount Adapter PL-RF with Cooke / i Technology Compatibility
The Mount Adapter PL-RF, new to the RF ecosystem, unlocks a broad assortment of PL mount lenses for the EOS C400. The adapter is compatible with Cooke / i Technology's metadata protocol and includes lock plates for a secure lens mount.
Variety of Interfaces, Including Timecode and Genlock
The C400 has a diverse set of interfaces making it a versatile camera for film set and live broadcast productions.
A dedicated 12-pin LENS terminal for broadcast and cine-servo lenses, 12G-SDI (SDI OUT) and 3G-SDI (MON.) for monitor outputs, two mini-XLR audio inputs (INPUT 1 and INPUT 2), DIN connectors for Time Code (TC), Genlock and return video (G-LOCK/SYNC/RET), a full-size HDMI (HDMI OUT), built-in Wi-Fi, Ethernet and REMOTE terminal.
The December 2024 firmware upgrade adds a 1920x1080P output option for monitoring while recording at higher resolutions.
Return Video Input, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi Control
The versatile C400 has specialized functions for live productions including a return video input that notifies operators which camera is currently being broadcast live.
The built-in Ethernet port enables Canon's IP-based remote control XC Protocol. XC Protocol helps to maximize operability and remote control of camera settings. Using the XC Protocol, the camera can be operated by Canon's RC-IP1000 and RC-IP100 controllers, and XC Protocol-enabled third-party remote control panels (RCP) can remotely shade the camera.
Additionally, Canon's Remote Control Camera Application (RCCA) can control camera settings as well as multiple cameras. The camera also features SRT protocol, enabling IP streaming of video and audio.
