Canon EOS C200 product description:

Offering exceptional creativity and flexibility, the new 4K compact digital cinema camera is perfect for a broad range of imaging professionals.

As the first Cinema EOS camera to support the new RAW recording format – Cinema RAW Light – the EOS C200 provides the same flexibility in colour grading as Cinema RAW in a smaller file size, enabling filmmakers to record internally to a CFast 2.0™ card.
Newly developed Canon Dual DIGIC DV6 processors provide the ability to record internally 4K UHD/50P MP4, 4K DCI RAW and continuous 120fps High Frame Rate (HFR) in Full HD without crop. At the same time, advances in Dual Pixel CMOS Auto Focus (AF) technology and a new touch screen LCD monitor provide smooth AF operation and effective tracking.

Capability drives creativity

The EOS C200 features Canon’s 4K Super 35mm CMOS sensor with an effective pixel count of 8.85MP, along with the newly developed Dual DIGIC DV6 image processors. As a result, it candeliver Cinema RAW Light recording at 4K DCI 50P internally to a CFast 2.0™ card. It can also deliver 4K UHD recording at 150Mbps, and 2K or Full HD at 35Mbps to SD cards in MP4 format.

Supporting up to 15-stops of dynamic range with Cinema RAW Light and up to 13-stops of dynamic range in MP4 (Canon Log / Log 3), the camera is perfect for capturing highlight and shadow details.
The EOS C200 is also capable of delivering both slow and fast motion recording at up to 120fps with no crop in Full HD/MP4, ideal for those wanting creative slow motion capture.

An ISO range of 100 to 102,400 guarantees excellent performance, even in difficult lighting conditions, such as when quickly switching between locations. The built-in optical ND filters of up to 10 stops provide further flexibility and convenience, allowing filmmakers to shoot in bright light and expand the depth of field control.

Advanced operability and ergonomic design

Built for professionals and ideal for single shooters, the EOS C200 features an advanced AF system that provides reliability and accuracy when shooting 4K, as well as a touch screen LCD panel for filmmakers to easily select their subject. For those who need to switch effortlessly between several subjects in a single shot, the Dual Pixel CMOS AF enables smooth AF operation whilst the Manual Focus Assist Function, Face Detection with Face Priority and Face-Only options provide greater creative focus control.

Canon EOS 6D Mark II – what we know and what we can expect

Canon will likely announce the Canon EOS 6D Mark II in July 2017. We didn’t see any reliable leak so far, with the exception of some information for the registration at a certification authority.

So what can we expect from the EOS 6D Mark II, Canon’s next iteration of the highly popular EOS 6D? From the registration we can learn a few things. The EOS 6D Mark II will have WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity (we told you first), a tiltable display (we told you first), and a size slightly larger than the EOS 6D. Not much, isn’t it?

So, what else may be on board? We received some hints over the last two years, most of these are just plausible to be features of the EOS 6D Mark II, or are suggested by common sense. Let’s see:

  • The EOS 6D Mark II will have e newly developed sensor, 28MP is the most likely resolution
  • Dual Pixel AF will be on board. Canon is featuring DPAF on entry-level DSLRs, we can expect it for sure on the EOS 6D Mrk II
  • The price will be around $2,000
  • Unlikely to have 4K video
  • The AF system will see some sort of upgrade
  • Touchscreen
  • Digic 7 (likely)
  • Larger viewfinder than EOS 6D

The list above is an educated guess based on the hints we received, and on the current state of technology. And that’s all. A month before the announcement (more or less) we know almost nothing. That’s unusual in the rumors industry. However, the leaked registration at a certification agency (assuming it refers to the EOS 6D Mark II) gives reasons to believe an announcement in July 2017 is likely.

Stay tuned!

Supposed Canon Rebel SL2 announcement date changed again – July 2017? [CW2]

Rebel SL2

A new rumor surfaced on the web. The long overdue Canon Rebel SL2 is now murmured to be announced in July 2017 (when other, unsubstantiated rumors suggest the EOS 6D Mark II may be announced).

Shipping is said to start in September 2017. A shipment two months after the announcement is unusual for an entry level Canon DLSR.

There is a lot of confusion going on with the next Canon announcements. Since when Canon started to be very secretive about their upcoming products rumors go wild.

Usually we get some intel about upcoming products (here and on other sites). Nothing leaked so far, neither about the EOS 6D Mark II nor for the Rebel SL2.

Specification wise we can expect the Rebel SL2 will have a feature set somewhere between the Canon Rebel T7i and the EOS 77D.

Take this with a grain of salt. Rumor sites are in distress since Canon started to keep their stuff private.

We keep you posted, stay tuned.
