Introducing the Canon EOS C70 Cinema Camera (RF Mount): Unleashing Cinematic Creativity in a Mirrorless Form
Experience the world of cinema capture like never before with the Canon EOS C70 Cinema Camera. This innovative camera combines the power of Cinema EOS video tools with the convenience of a mirrorless-style body, all in one remarkable package. Equipped with a Super35 DGO (Dual Gain Output) sensor, the EOS C70 enables you to capture nuanced and breathtaking images with an exceptional dynamic range of up to 16+ stops.
One of the standout features of the EOS C70 is its RF mount, a first for Canon’s Cinema EOS cameras. This means you can take advantage of Canon’s extensive lineup of fast and reliable RF lenses, renowned for their advanced coatings and image stabilization. The RF mount opens up new creative possibilities and ensures outstanding image quality.
At the heart of the EOS C70 is the DGO sensor, a cutting-edge Super35 Dual Gain Output sensor. This sensor reads each pixel with different gains, emphasizing saturation in bright areas while reducing noise in darker regions. The result is stunning image quality with rich details and vibrant colors. Coupled with Canon’s exclusive Dual Pixel CMOS Autofocus technology, the EOS C70 delivers precise focusing even in challenging shooting scenarios.
Powered by the DIG!C DV7 image processor, the EOS C70 harnesses the extensive raw information captured by the sensor and processes it with incredible efficiency. The DIG!C engine drives various features including high frame rate recording, HDR output, Dual Pixel Autofocus, Electronic Image Stabilization, and proxy recording. This seamless integration ensures optimal performance and enables you to push the boundaries of your creativity.
The EOS C70 offers a range of video resolutions, including DCI 4K capture at various frame rates from 23.98 to 60 fps. You can also enjoy high-speed options up to 120 fps in UHD 4K and 180 fps in cropped 2K, opening up possibilities for slow-motion and fast-paced shooting. The camera supports unlimited video recording, giving you the freedom to capture uninterrupted footage.
Designed for professional videographers, the EOS C70 is packed with essential features. It includes Dual Pixel CMOS AF for precise autofocus control, a motorized ND filter wheel integrated into the RF-mount flange, a BNC timecode input/output connector, and built-in dual mini-XLR audio inputs for professional audio recording.
The exceptional design of the EOS C70 enhances its versatility and usability. The built-in RF lens mount ensures compatibility with Canon’s high-performance RF-mount lenses, while the short flange distance reduces the camera body’s depth, resulting in a compact and ergonomic design.
For added flexibility, the EOS C70 is also compatible with EF lenses using the optional EF-EOS R 0.71X adapter. This adapter not only allows you to use EF lenses but also provides a convenient aperture speed boost. Additionally, the camera supports various compatible adapters, including the EF-EOS R Canon Mount, Canon Control Ring Mount, Drop-In Circular Polarizer Filter Mount, and Drop-In Variable ND Filter Mount adapters.
The EOS C70 features Direct Touch Control, enabling quick and easy access to your favorite menu settings through the fully rotatable 3.5″ LCD screen. You can start/stop recording, adjust ISO/gain, color temperature, iris, and other critical settings with a simple touch. This intuitive control system allows for efficient operation, even with one hand, ensuring you never miss a moment.
With the 1/4″-20 tripod thread built into the grip, you can position the EOS C70 vertically for capturing images tailored for digital signage or mobile device use. The user interface can be switched to a vertical orientation for easier viewing.
