Description
Compact professional 4K UHD camcorder
Capture stunning 4K UHD and superior Full HD images thanks to a 1.0-inch Type CMOS 4K sensor and DIGIC DV6 image processor. Over Sampling HD processing delivers Full HD images from the sensor.
4K 15x optical zoom lens
The Canon lens covers a 25.5 – 382mm (35mm equivalent) range. A digital zoom boosts to 300x with 5-axis image stabilisation.
Fast, precise focusing with face detection
Adjustable focusing speeds and advanced Dual Pixel CMOS AF give fast and precise focusing. Use the 3.5-inch LCD display to set focus by touching the AF point required. Face Detection AF and Face Tracking are available while Manual Focus is set via the focus/zoom ring.
XF-AVC and MP4 for flexible recording
Choose from XF-AVC or MP4 recording formats. Record XF-AVC 4K UHD 160Mbps at 25P, plus Full HD 45Mbps at 50P/50i/25P. For smaller files, record MP4 4K 150Mbps at 25P and Full HD 35Mbps or 17Mbps at 50P/25P.
Multiple shooting functions
Output options include 3G-SDI, simultaneous backup and relay recording via dual SD card and Infrared mode. For specialist capture, record Slow Motion in Full HD 0.5x or Fast Motion in 4K/Full HD up to 1200x. Colour match with other Canon cameras via the custom picture menu.
Livestream and more
Stream HD footage via UVC1 over a computer or add a date and time stamp with OSD recording. Two XLR terminals on a detachable handle plus 4-channel linear PCM bring pro audio options.
