The Canon EOS C100 EF Camera with 24-105mm f/4L Lens constitutes a remarkable pairing of camera and lens. The camera features a Super 35mm CMOS image sensor and the DIGIC DV III image processor for capturing cinematic video with shallow depth of field, 12-stops of dynamic range and exceptional low-light sensitivity. The lens offers an extensive focal length range, a constant maximum aperture of f/4 and Canon's USM auto focus technology. Independent event videographers and video production organizations will appreciate the EOS C100's cinema quality imaging capabilities and its compact, modular form factor.

Super 35mm 8.3MP CMOS Sensor
The C100's Super 35mm-sized sensor provides an angle-of-view and depth of field that equivalent to that of traditional Super 35mm film. With a native resolution of 8.3MP and a wider pixel pitch than conventional professional camcorders, the C100's sensor offers enhanced sensitivity and reduced noise in low light environments.
Canon 24-105mm f/4L IS EF USM AF Lens
Canon's 24-105mm f/4L utilizes one Super-UD glass element and three aspherical elements, which minimize chromatic aberration and distortion. The result is excellent picture quality, even at wide apertures. The constant maximum aperture of f/4 allows users to zoom through the entire full focal length range without compromising exposure values. Ring USM (Ultrasonic motor) technology uses ultrasonic frequency vibrations to drive responsive, near-silent high speed auto focus, and full-time manual focus override is available without having to switch out of AF. Super Spectra Coatings suppress flare and ghosting and help achieve true color balance and contrast.
EF Lens Mount with EF Contacts
The C100 is fully compatible with Canon's renowned EF mount lenses. Even specialty lenses, such as Canon's 24mm f/3.5L II tilt shift lens or the 8-15mm f/4L Ultra-Wide Zoom fisheye lens, are available on the C100. When shooting with EF lenses, C100 features peripheral illumination correction, which automatically compensates for light fall-off in the corners of the image. Furthermore, continuous AF will be available via a firmware update for compatibility with Canon EF Lenses with STM focusing.
HDMI Outputs a Non-Compression Signal
The C100 outputs an uncompressed signal via HDMI. This signal superimposes timecode and the 2:3 pulldown marker, which means an external recorder and converter can process the HDMI output as an SDI signal. External recorders provide an instant back-up and help to streamline post-production workflows.
ISO 320 and up to ISO 20000
A maximum ISO of 20000 allows the C100 to record in low light environments. This is ideal for working with available light. Although higher ISOs always translate into a noisier image, the C100 utilizes the same signal processing as 3-chip RGB systems, which produces a superior image quality.
Dual SDHC/SDXC Card Slots
Secure Digital memory cards offer professional grade read/write speeds and reliability at ever more affordable prices. Dual SDHC/SDXC memory card slots allow the C100 to record simultaneously to two memory cards, creating an instant back-up. What's more, C100 can record HD footage to Slot A while simultaneously recording down-converted SD footage to Slot B.
Wide DR and Canon Log Gamma
Canon Log records an image with subdued contrast and sharpness, which preserves a high dynamic range and presupposes color grading in post production. Wide DR is a new gamma setting based on Rec. 709, which offers a wide dynamic range and smooth gradations in highlights and shadow, without requiring processing in post-production.
Reduced Rolling Shutter Skews
Traditional CMOS sensors scan one line at a time and sometimes produce a rolling shutter skew when shooting fast moving objects or executing a quick pan. The C100's CMOS sensor features the same signal processing as 3-chip RGB systems, which reduces the angle of distortion compared to cameras with regular CMOS sensors of the same size.
Built-in ND Filters with Manual Operation
In excessively bright environments neutral density filters are often required to avoid over exposure, without compromising desirable shutter and aperture settings. The C100 features built-in ND filters in three densities, which make for four ND configurations (OFF, 2 stops, 4 stops, 6 stops). The built-in ND filters are deployed via a manual dial.
Two XLR Audio Connectors
The C100 includes a top mounted handle unit, which features two XLR connectors and a microphone shock mount. XLR connections offer a high quality audio input for professional grade microphones and facilitate 2 channel 48kHz linear PCM (24Mbps) audio recordings.
One Shot AF and Push Auto Iris
One-Shot AF executes focus adjustments with a dedicated button, and the Push Auto Iris button automatically adjusts the aperture of the lens to quickly and easily maintain proper exposure. Both of these functions can be accessed even when operating in manual mode.
Full Manual Control and Focusing Aids
The EOS C100 offers complete manual control of each aspect of the recording process. Create and recall custom picture settings, camera functions, and display options. The camera also features several powerful and intuitive focusing aids in both the EVF and LCD monitor that make it easy to confirm critical focus distance; Peaking Modes and Magnify Focus Modes are available while in standby or while recording. Additionally, the LCD features Edge Monitor Display; green waveforms display the overall focus of the scene and red waveforms provide focus feedback of the three focus check boxes visible on the LCD monitor.

    Comments about Canon EOS C100 Cinema EOS Camera with 24-105mm f/4L Lens:

    This is the camera I've been waiting for. I always had a few requirements to upgrade from a DSLR to a sub 10K camera, a 35mm sensor, ND Filters, dual SD or CF cards, and ergonomics. This camera hit all those requirements for me with a few minor pitfalls. The lack of frame rate choices is frustrating but for my shooting style isn't a deal breaker. AVCHD isn't ideal yet again for what I do it isn't a deal breaker. In my opinion this camera is a much better option then the AF100 and FS100. Canon glass is the king and neither of those two camera actively take them without buying a expensive converters. ND filters are very important when you're shooting with these cameras and only the AF supports that yet has a tiny sensor. Now that this camera is out of the 8k range it's a no brainer. The bottom line is if you're shooting corporate or doc style video this camera will fit your needs perfectly. If you're looking for the best image and don't care about annoying rigs and back end work snatch up a Blackmagic Cinema Camera or RED Scarlet.

      Comments about Canon EOS C100 Cinema EOS Camera with 24-105mm f/4L Lens:

      As a commercial videographer that also does some documentary work as well, this camera is a god send. It's also a major step up from shooting on the 5d as well. The c100 is very easy to operate...it feels like a real video camera with its xlr inputs, focus assists and ND filters...the ergonomics is also great and the camera is well balanced. I got the kit lens with the camera and its quite nice...not as good as the 2.8 24-70mm image wise but its more than adequate. The fact that the c100 produces such a great image at high iso's is also fantastic when you find yourself in lowlight situations. For those worried about the avchd codec..don't!!! It handles a great surprising well and if you are in need of a more robust codec then strap a ninja on and you have high quality images at 4:2:2.

      The EVF is really the onto thing on the camera that is a con...it really is not usable.

      It's a great camera overall and when you take into consideration the 1000 rebate its worth every penny.
