Canon EOS C100 EF Cinema Camera (Body Only)The Canon EOS C100 is a professional Super 35mm digital cinema camera designed specifically for “run-and-gun” videographers, documentarians, and independent filmmakers. Inheriting the legendary sensor technology and color science of the C300, the C100 offers a more compact, mobile form factor that is approximately 15% smaller while maintaining a high-bitrate 1080p image. Engineered for one-man-band operations, it combines the cinematic depth-of-field of a DSLR with the essential physical controls—like XLR audio and built-in ND filters—of a traditional production camera. Cinematic Imaging & Professional ControlSuper 35mm 8.3MP CMOS Sensor: This sensor provides the iconic “Super 35” aesthetic with a shallow depth-of-field and exceptional low-light performance. Its wide pixel pitch minimizes noise, allowing for a native ISO range up to 80,000 for shooting in extremely dim, available-light environments. Built-in ND Filters: A manual dial allows you to toggle between four configurations (Clear, 2, 4, and 6 stops), enabling you to maintain wide apertures and cinematic shutter speeds even in bright outdoor sunlight. Canon Log & Wide DR Gamma: Preserves a high dynamic range for professional color grading in post-production. The Wide DR setting is ideal for fast turnarounds, offering smooth highlight and shadow gradations based on the Rec. 709 standard without requiring heavy grading. EF Lens Mount Compatibility: Fully compatible with Canon’s extensive library of EF lenses, including specialized Tilt-Shift and Fisheye optics. It also features peripheral illumination correction to automatically compensate for corner light fall-off. Professional Audio and ConnectivityTop-Mounted Handle Unit: Included with the body, this handle features dual XLR connectors, a microphone shock mount, and manual audio gain controls. It facilitates professional 2-channel 48 kHz linear PCM audio recording. Uncompressed HDMI Output: Unlike standard DSLRs, the C100 outputs a clean, uncompressed signal via HDMI with superimposed timecode and 2:3 pulldown markers—perfect for high-quality external recording or streamlined post-production workflows. Dual SDHC/SDXC Slots: Two card slots allow for simultaneous backup recording or the ability to record HD footage to Slot A while capturing a lower-resolution SD proxy to Slot B. Enhanced Operability FeaturesOne-Shot AF & Push Auto Iris: Dedicated buttons allow you to instantly grab focus or set your exposure on the fly, even when operating in full manual mode. Sophisticated Focusing Aids: The EVF and LCD monitors feature Peaking, Magnification, and an Edge Monitor Display, which provides a visual waveform to help confirm critical focus in any scene. Reduced Rolling Shutter: Advanced signal processing reduces the “jello effect” typically seen in CMOS sensors during fast pans or when tracking high-speed subjects.
