BUY SOMEWHERE ELSE!

This is a really great camera that takes beautiful footage, but if you care about customer service buy this somewhere else. My company bought this camera from Adorama for a shoot that was happening a few weeks later and the camera arrived with a defective sensor and would not turn on. I know this is nobody's fault it happens, but their customer service would not replace the camera or offer any kind of solution other than call Canon for a warranty claim. So because of shipping and repair times the almost $6k camera we bought wont be used on the shoot we specifically got it for. So my advice is if you are spending this kind of money I would go to company that actually backs up their sales and cares about their clients like B&H or buy directly from Canon. And just in case anyone is wondering I talked to 3 different customer service reps. and a supervisor over the course of about 4 days trying to get them to return or exchange the broken camera they sold me. So once more I say, buy somewhere else.

C-200 best in class

Let me start by comparing this camera to the cameras I have used personally. I have read countless reviews based solely on specs. Yes this camera is extreme in choices of image quality. Here is how I get around it. I use the Angelbird 1tb CFast. Gives me 136 min of RAW recording at 4k 10 bit 60fps. From there I mount the CFast and convert if needed to 10 bit 422 pro res using the free Canon RAW utility. This Camera runs side by side to my Canon C-500. Image matches well. The key to this camera is the small form factor to run and gun. Battery life on the C-500 is 60 min shooting 4K using the BP-975. The C-200 is around 3 1/2 hours using the BP-A60 using Phantom power. Build quality is top notch. Nothing compares to it. I had the Panasonic EVA-1 and returned it. The plastic moved and makes cracking noises. Image is nice. Really nice. The Focus Assist on the EVA-1 is the best I ever used. Small green blocks that get bigger with focus. But Canon Dual Pixel autofocus is king.

Perfect for its ergonomics, fast razor sharp autofocus, lightweight design, and killer codec!

The EOS C200 Digital Cinema Camera is a “ready-to-go” production camera that comes with a built-in electronic viewfinder and an array of accessories including a 4-inch touch screen LCD monitor, a versatile handle and ergonomic handgrip. The camera can record internal 4K RAW to a CFast™ 2.0 card in our new Cinema RAW Light format without compromising detail, as well as 4K UHD and Full HD in MP4 format to SD cards. The 8.85 Megapixel Super 35mm CMOS sensor, 13 stops of dynamic range, Dual Pixel CMOS AF, full compatibility with Canon EF-mount lenses, and HDR capability help make the EOS C200 ideal for film, documentary and television production, corporate and event videography, and newsgathering. The camera’s multitude of features help deliver outstanding image quality, performance and versatility.

Canon 8.85 Megapixel Super 35mm CMOS Sensor

Canon 8.85 Megapixel Super 35mm CMOS Sensor

The EOS C200 Digital Cinema Camera integrates an 8.85 Megapixel Super 35mm 16:9 CMOS sensor that supports 4K (DCI) recording with a maximum resolution of 4096 x 2160 pixels. The camera fully utilizes the image data delivered by this 4K CMOS sensor to also enable Over Sampling HD Processing for 2K (DCI) and Full HD 1080/60p recording.

Each pixel in this CMOS imaging sensor also maintains a wide pixel pitch that maximizes the amount of light that falls on to each photo site, thus enhancing the EOS C200 camera’s sensitivity while also minimizing noise and supporting ISO speeds of up to 102,400 for extreme low-light imaging. This sensor also reduces data-readout time, resulting in a reduction in rolling-shutter artifacts.

Canon 8.85 Megapixel Super 35mm CMOS Sensor
Fully Compatible with New and Existing Canon EF-Mount Lenses

Fully Compatible with New and Existing Canon EF-Mount Lenses

A major aspect of the creative filmmaking potential of the EOS C200 Digital Cinema Camera is its compatibility with the full range of more than 100 Canon EF and EF-S photographic lenses (including specialty tilt-shift and fisheye models) and Canon’s 4K CN-E Cinema prime and zoom lenses, including the “ENG-style” Canon CINE-SERVO and COMPACT-SERVO zooms. Improved EF lens communication capabilities of the EOS C200 camera provide the display of CN-E Cinema lens T-values, compatibility with Dual-Pixel CMOS AF, lens metadata acquisition, and chromatic aberration correction.

Display Switch

It is possible to switch the camera display to show iris values between the F-stop and T-value. This is important for those that shoot on movie sets and prefer to know how much light is passing through the opening of the lens and actually making it to the sensor. T-values are the traditional measure of light reaching the sensor in video production, while F-stop is the measure of light in still photography. The ability to see the F-stop helps those transitioning from still to video shooting.

Built-In Viewfinder with Touch Screen LCD Monitor

The EOS C200 Digital Cinema Camera is a “ready-to-go” production camera- right out of the box. The camera comes with a built-in electronic viewfinder, along with a 4-inch Touch Screen LCD Monitor (LM-V1), Camera Grip (GR-V1), Handle Unit (HDU-2) and Battery Charger (CG-A20)- all helping make the EOS C200 ideal for single operator shooting applications including film, documentary and television production, as well as corporate video and event videography work and newsgathering.

Built-In Electronic Viewfinder
The 0.46 inch, 1.77 million dot Built-in Electronic Viewfinder has a full array of menu options for controlling camera settings, and supports HDR viewing.

Touch Screen LCD Monitor (LM-V1)
The fully adjustable and detachable, 1.23 million dot, 4-inch Touch Screen LCD Monitor works with Canon's exclusive AF technologies for easy monitoring and one-finger "tap-focusing" during shooting.

Camera Grip (GR-V1)
The new Rosette style camera grip makes rotating and removing the grip simpler, and features an improved ergonomic design to help steady and focus the camera.

Handle Unit (HDU-2)
This handle unit can be attached to the camera body without tools, and features a new handle screw that enables fast and easy attachment. The unit can also be used to mount a variety of optional peripherals.

Dual DiG!C DV 6 Image Processors

The EOS C200 Digital Cinema Camera features our newly developed dual DiG!C DV 6 image processors, which powerfully process high-resolution image data.

The two on-board DiG!C DV 6 image processors allow for the recoding of 1,800 horizontal TV lines in 4K. The DiG!C 6 is Canon’s sixth-generation Image processor that uses proprietary technology, allowing users to achieve high performance and creative freedom when acquiring images.

Dual DiG!C DV 6 Image Processors

Over Sampling HD Processing

The EOS C200 features Over Sampling HD Processing*, a high-image-quality signal processing system that satisfies a broad spectrum of video production needs by effectively utilizing the abundant powers of 4K image expression in 2K (2048 x 1080) / Full HD (1920 x 1080) recording.

*Over Sampling HD processing is not available with Cinema RAW Light recording or 120p/100p.

Over Sampling HD Processing

ISO Range of 100 to 102,400 Supported
The EOS C200B supports an ISO range of between 160 and 25,600. That range expands to between 100 to 102,400 when the “Extended Sensitivity” is set on the camera. This range of ISO settings provide the user with more creative freedom. Low ISO values allow the user to use large iris settings and shallow depth of field, even in scenes of bright light. The higher ISO values provide the user with more flexibility in dimly lit situations.

Dual Pixel CMOS AF Technology
The EOS C200 Digital Cinema Camera features our Dual Pixel CMOS AF (DAF) Technology. DAF is a breakthrough AF technology that uses the CMOS sensor.
Each pixel in the camera's CMOS sensor is configured with two photodiodes. Two independent image signals can then be detected at each photosite. By implementing phase-difference AF, smooth focusing is accomplished using Canon EF lenses with much higher speed and accuracy than was possible with previous technologies- a major advantage during single-operator shooting.

Dual Pixel CMOS AF Technology

Continuous AF+ and Face Detection AF+ with all Canon EF Lenses*
The EOS C200 has one-touch AF (with a push-button) and continuous AF within approximately 80% of the overall image area. Face Detection AF is another autofocus mode that can track a person's face in the frame and maintain focus on them. To further fine tune AF performance, the EOS C200 offers the ability to set the AF tracking speed and response.

*Excluding manual focus lenses

Dual Pixel CMOS AF with Touch Focus
Achieve faster focus with the included Touch Screen LCD Monitor (LM-V1), a new accessory with touch screen support. Tapping the area of the frame quickly brings the image into focus. This ability to choose the subject for focusing with the tap of the screen helps to make focusing intuitive.

Dual Pixel CMOS AF with Touch Focus

Dual Pixel Focus Guide

The camera's Dual Pixel Focus Guide takes advantage of Dual Pixel CMOS AF data to display focus assist information on the screen. The innovative user interface applies Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology to provide the user focus feedback. This lowers the barrier for focusing, especially when shooting in 4K, which requires strict focus accuracy.
The Dual Pixel Focus Guide presents the user with a rectangle in which to focus the subject. The rectangle turns green when the subject is in focus. If the subject is out of focus the box will turn gray and the arrows will indicate which way to adjust the lens to regain focus.
The camera also has a focus pre-set feature. Separate predetermined focus points can be selected and when the SET button is pushed, the lens will move focus from one mark to the other. This is especially useful when focusing in scenes with multiple subjects.

Pre-set feature

AF Tuning

A newly developed menu function has been added for Auto-Focus tuning, allowing easy access to camera and lens settings. The AF Speed Tuning function allows users to set the lens drive speed to any of 10 steps. AF subject tracking characteristics can also be varied and set to any of 7 steps, allowing the user to select the appropriate responsiveness when changes have occurred in the subject.

Internal 4K RAW Recording with New Cinema RAW Light

Internal 4K RAW Recording with New Cinema RAW Light

The EOS C200 Digital Cinema Camera features Canon's newly developed Cinema RAW Light, a 4K RAW recording file format offering a smaller file size compared to our standard RAW*1 files, while maintaining the same high resolution, high color reproducibility, and wide dynamic range data to provide dramatically greater freedom in grading and compositing.

*1 Standard RAW: EOS C500/EOS C300 Mark II/EOS C700 camera RAW

Cinema RAW Light files are about 1/3 to 1/5 the size of our standard RAW files. The smaller file size and reduced bit rate speed up data transfer and allow internal recording to CFast™ cards.

The reduced file size also helps users extend storage capacity and transfer files on a network more easily. The high bit depth of Cinema RAW Light (10bit/12bit*2) maximizes retention of color and dynamic range information, which is especially critical in HDR production.

*2 12bit for 4K/30p and under, 10bit for 4K/60p and 50p. Each bit is efficiency optimized in consideration of visual properties.

Cinema RAW Light files can be transcoded to other commonly used file formats, such as DPX or ProRes for later editing and online delivery using Canon's CRD software.

Simultaneous Recording
4K video can be recorded to a CFast™ 2.0 card, while recording 2K proxy video to an SD card. The smaller file size of the 2K proxy file allows for easier editing.

Internal 4K UHD and Full HD Recording in MP4
The EOS C200B Digital Cinema Camera offers 4K UHD and Full HD recording in MP4 format, up to 60fps. The compact size of the MP4 codec allows the EOS C200B to capture images directly to low cost SD cards.

Internal 4K RAW Recording with New Cinema RAW Light

Double Slot Recording
Mirror recording of 4K UHD/Full HD MP4 image files to the camera’s two SD slots is also possible, saving time and effort of having to make copies of the data after recording.

Full HD 120P/100P Slow Motion Recording Support
The EOS C200 Digital Cinema Camera supports high-speed recording in Full HD at 120p/100p fps to enable additional creative freedom for slow motion replays and other special effects. It’s capable of a maximum 120fps, realizing even greater emotion in visual expression.

Professional Workflow

The EOS C200 Digital Cinema Camera offers a variety of professional workflows. The camera’s new Cinema RAW Light format provides professional shooters with the widest dynamic range and highest color fidelity for post production work. Using Canon's CRD software and Canon RAW Light codec with up to 15 stops of dynamic range is achievable.

MP4 recording is also possible on the camera for situations such as newsgathering, where capturing the image and speed through post are priority.

The EOS C200 supports both ACES 1.0 and HDR imaging through support for emerging HDR standards. Canon is working closely with 3rd party developers to help ensure maximum compatibility for these new formats with NLE and grading systems.

Professional Workflow

Canon Cinema RAW Development 2.0
Canon has developed a mature workflow for the EOS C200, Cinema RAW Development 2.0, which supports the new Cinema RAW Light format and is provided as a free download. In addition to new development process support, it also brings features from the previous release including support HDR monitoring, Canon Log Gammas, ACES 1.0 and more.

Canon RAW Plugin 2.0 for Avid® Media Access
Canon RAW Plugin 2.0 for Avid® Media Access is provided as a free download, which allows users to directly import Canon Cinema RAW data into an Avid Media Composer® system. This helps streamline the workflow, while enabling stress-free real-time playback and reducing file ingest wait time.

HDR Viewing
The EOS C200 Digital Cinema Camera supports HDR recording in the ITU-R BT.2100 standard (PQ). HDR on-set monitoring is possible using HDR compatible reference displays, including all of our Canon 4K UHD Reference Displays. The Electronic Viewfinder can be used with a new View Assist feature, providing a reference view that’s close to the PQ standard. Using this View Assist feature, the displayed dynamic range can be selected for 400% or 1600%, and linear display as well. This allows operators to shoot HDR footage while getting a preview of the finished product.

ACES 1.0 Support*
The EOS C200 Digital Cinema Camera supports the Academy Color Encoding System (ACES 1.0). Using Canon supplied IDTs, images captured on the EOS C200 can be imported directly into the ACES compatible systems. In addition, video output from the camera can be monitored by selecting the ACESproxy.

ACESproxy allows the camera to send a monitor output that simulates ACES space to a compatible monitor or device. Modifications made using the proxy output can be saved and later brought into the editing or grading suite to help insure changes and color choices made on set are accurately reproduced in post.

ACES image display is supported in Canon’s full line of 4K UHD Reference Displays.
