Having a bad day? Title would be incorrect if I wrote C700 & XC15 announced. Instead, I chose a title that is correct today, tomorrow, next week, etc. tokhee and Mattias Burling 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Andrew Reid Posted August 31, 2016 Administrators Share Posted August 31, 2016 Should be interesting but prepare to be pissed off... XC15 is probably merely an audio port C700 is probably $50k And a 1D C Mark II is probably AWOL But hey, I await to be pleasantly surprised Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooklynDan Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Despite the fact that the decision-makers at Canon often miss the mark, I'm excited to see what the C700 brings to the table. The high-end digital cinema arena is crowded, and there isn't enough room for everyone (See: Varicam 35). And the fact that they're rumored to drop a new anamorphic lens with it gives me some hope. Anamorphic is a big market right now and addressing it will dramatically expand the user base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gelaxstudio Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Forget about the 5D4 and all DSLRs ，and please buy the more expensive C series and help canon to prove their success in the market，do you take it seriously？ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliKMIA Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Can't wait to blow $50k in the new C700 and have to carry to a brick. Yeah, Yeah, I know the C100 is available for $4000 but I do need 4k actually. Oh and I'll also buy a 5Dmk4 to take pictures because I need both stills and video.

Liszon Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Ahh God Canon. For this much money that 12bit raw should be done inside the giant shoebox you glued to the back of a C300. We get 4K @ 50P internally. Hurray! Ehh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Andrews Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Its shape reminds me of a xenomorph's head, but not in a good way. I'm sure this will be a great camera to work with, shoot great images, do the job in many ways, etc, but as with all Canon cameras, the pricing and specs vs. that of its competitors just seem very underwhelming. If I had that sort of money ready to spend, I would choose an Amira Geoff CB, johnnyd, gelaxstudio and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ehetyz Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 With the raw recorder that's pretty much everything I'd want from a camera. Too bad it's about 3x the price I'd find feasible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivanhurba Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 This could be very well Canon's homerun for high-end productions they were expecting to have. Looks good and complete. Sure, out of our range, but it looks they didn't skimp on anything and it's priced accordingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyd Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Looks pretty good but why is it that Canon can't do internal raw with this thing? Or they just don't want to? Seems very strange to me since everything else seems pretty well thought out on this one... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a scientist and the instruments we routinely use typically cost $50-$250k, so really $30k is relatively cheap if it is something you need to do you job.

jax_rox Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Interesting. So the $30k market has another new competitor that operates the same as all of them. It's body is big and long by the look of it, so will be interesting to see how it sits on the shoulder. Reminds of the original URSA. Anamorphic de-squeeze, assumedly for 1.3x anamorphic lenses, as the sensor doesn't appear to be 16:9 And a 'modular design' - you know like every other camera manufacturer out there nowadays. DPAF is nice for some productions, but is it enough to keep it competing? At around $30k: -RED has 6k raw in a small body, at up to 75fps in 6k, 120fps in 4k -Panasonic has dual ISO in a small, light body (at half the price too!), plus their very impressive Varicam colour science -Sony F55 has F65 colour science in a body that's still smaller than that C700. -Alexa Mini has a 4:3 sensor, and an Alexa image. No 4k, obviously, but as we all know, not all 4k is created equal. Still a small, light body. -Canon has DPAF Interesting to see how it all pans out. I feel that if an amazing camera like the VaricamLT struggles to gain traction at ~half the price(ish) (assuming the suggested $30k of the C700 is correct), Canon may struggle. But then, perhaps the DPAF is enough to sway some (VLT has EF mount, but no AF). johnnyd and photographer-at-large 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the ProRes is good enough, most people don't seem bothered. 5 minutes ago, jax_rox said: -Canon has DPAF Global shutter option too... and if you are to mention the Panasonic colour science, i think it's only fair to give that as a plus for Canon. It's not breaking alot of new ground, i don't think many $20k+ cameras ever will from here on in.... Now it is just a case of choosing your preferred image and workflow, unless you really need things like 8K or HFR at 4K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronChicago Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Doesn't Canon claim 15 stops on the C300ii as well? I love the simple side menu. Similar to how the Alexa is set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
