Creators looking to capture a rich cine look while accessing versatile imaging tools can now turn to Canon’s RF-mount EOS C400 6K Full-Frame Digital Cinema Camera. Based around a new 6K full-frame, back-illuminated CMOS sensor, the C400 features three ISO bases of 800, 3200, and 12,800, covering a truly wide range of light levels. This digital cinema camera blends high-resolution imagery with both cine-style and broadcast features like an optional Cooke/i PL mount, return video, and both Super35 and Super16 modes with solo shooter-friendly functions such as Dual-Pixel CMOS AF II, internal ND filters, and a compact, lightweight form.
6K Full-Frame Sensor
Canon has placed its new 6K CMOS sensor at the heart of the C400 camera, enabling it to offer exceptionally low noise, increased sensitivity efficiency, and better 4K imagery via 6K oversampling. This is all made possible thanks to the improved light capture technology of the back-illuminated, stacked CMOS sensor.
Triple-Base ISOs
The same 6K CMOS sensor also provides the choice of a trio of ISO speeds: 800, 3200, and 12,800, so you can capture both the brilliance of settings like Times Square or a full-sun landscape and the nuances of available light scenes like an interior location or a nighttime city skyline.
Multiple Recording Formats
Different projects demand specific recording formats, and the C400 has you covered with up to 6K60 Cinema RAW and HQ, ST, and LT Cinema RAW Light 12-bit modes. Oversampled 4K with amazing detail is available in 10-bit 4:2:2 with frame rates up to 120p, all without cropping the image on the sensor. Slow- and fast-motion can be captured at rates up to UHD 4K120 and 2K180.
Canon has made your editing process easier with two new codecs: XF-AVC S and XF-HEVC S, both featuring an easier naming system and folder structure and metadata preservation, all within the established MP4 format.
