Great news from Canon! XF705 4K Pro Camcorder users can now avail themselves of H.265/XF-HEVC support in Adobe Premiere Pro CC 10.4.7 and Apple Final Cut Pro 10.4. These software upgrades enable creators to take advantage of the improved compression and reduced bit rates offered by this successor to the popular H.264 codec—especially handy when capturing or streaming 4K footage. With this updated compatibility, the 1" sensor XF705 is even more suited to the latest in documentary, event, indie feature, and ENG capture. The compact, portable XF705’s features include a 15x optical/30x digital zoom, 5-axis image stabilization, high-speed rates up to 120 fps in 1080p, 12G-SDI and HDMI 2.0 outputs, internal ND filters, and dual XLR audio inputs.
Files using the XF-HEVC codec, aka MPEG-H Part 2 or ITU-T H.265, can offer up to a 50% reduction in storage needs, saving space and outlay on media. Transcode your H.265/XF-HEVC material on ingest for the fastest workflow or edit using the original files if your system ticks all the specs recommended for your editing system.
