Canon, EOS C300 PL (Body Only)

The EOS C300 PL features a PL mount for compatibility with a broad range of compatible cine lenses and contains a Super 35mm-size CMOS sensor. The Canon Super 35mm sensor is paired with the Canon DIGIC III image processor, which uses an innovative method of breaking out red, green, and blue data to enable color performance on a level that would otherwise require three separate chips. Recording HD formats to CompactFlash cards as Canon's XF codec – at the highest level a 50 Mb/s, 4:2:2 MPEG-2 format – the C300 PL records motion video that reduces the jagged edges and Moiré patterns that can plague video with 4:2:0 chroma subsampling and lead to post-production challenges. Terminals include an HD-SDI output, timecode I/O, and genlock input BNCs. The body is modular and can either be stripped down completely, or be built up to host the included handle, a 4" rotating LCD unit with full controls, grip, and thumb rest. It also features accessible, assignable buttons.
