Japanese director Yosh Enatsu shots with Canon EOS C300 Mark II (and uses auto focus)

Famous Japanese director Yosh Enatsu posted footage shot with the Canon EOS C300 Mark II. Canon’s Dual Pixel CMOS Auto Focus technology and manual focus assist modes are used and well documented. The footage was shot in 4K 30p with Canon Log 2.

The interesting video for the pros is the “making of” below, where the use of Dual Pixel CMOS AF and manual focus assist modes in the footage is shown.

You may wonder why I stress Dual Pixel CMOS AF and manual focus assist so much. It’s common opinion among professionals that manual focus is the way to go, and that autofocus is the choice of amateurs. What Yosh Enatsu is showing us here, is that Canon’s Dual Pixel AF technology is a game changer for professional shooters. Dual Pixel AF is featured also on the [shoplink 14246]Canon EOS 70D[/shoplink] and [shoplink 22664]EOS 7D Mark II[/shoplink].

Yosh Enatsu was the first director to post footage shot with Sony’s F55 three years ago.
