    Canon EOS C300 Test Shoot

    November 29, 2011 by Patrick


    Jonathan Yi got an opportunity to shoot using the new Canon EOS C300 large sensor camcorder. The results of his test are pretty impressive.

    The one thing that shocks me the most is seeing how this new Canon sensor handles bounce. Normally, we’re used to seeing jello-y shots whenever someone shoots hand held with a DSLR. The C300 handles bounce just fine, in fact they placed the camera on top of a car on a cobblestone road and the footage looks great. There have been multiple occasions where we’ve been unable to use a DSLR due to the simple fact that we need to run and gun. This seems to solve that common problem. Documentary film making looks to be much much easier using this camera.

    Also, losing Morie is also a huge plus. I’ve seen plugins that can help minimize moire but they’ve managed to completely eliminate it.

    The RED Scarlet may have stole much of the C300’s thunder, but this video really opens my eyes to looking again at the new Canon Camcorder. People have claimed it’s much too expensive (and they may be right) but this video seems to show that Canon is dedicated to solving many of the problems that DSLR shooters have been complaining about since the outset.

    For a more in depth look at the Canon EOS C300, check out Jonathan Yi’s post.

    Confused About Sensor Size?

    November 8, 2011 by Patrick


    With the release of the Scarlet-X and the C300, sensor size has been the talk of the town. To help put things in prospective, Prolost posted this great visual of how each sensor stacks up against each other. Now I know that the larger sensor doesn’t necessarily mean the better camera, but still interesting to see how they all look together.

    Canon and RED Announce New Cameras

    November 8, 2011 by Patrick


    Late last week, both Canon and RED announced their latest large sensor cameras.

    Canon announced their first large sensor camcorder, the Canon EOS C300. The new camera features a 4k 8.3 megapixel Super35 sensor that is able to shoot up to 1080p. The camera is priced at $20k and will be available in January of 2012. They offer two versions, one with an EF mount and the other with PL.

    Priced in the same bracket as the Sony F3, its a bit shocking that they didn’t include a couple more “top of the line” features (1080p 60.) I’ve seen people complain about how this isn’t necessarily that much of an improvement over prior large sensor camcorders, but Canon is known for its quality (hence the high prices,) but some people will still want to stick with their AF100s and the like.

    RED unveiled their long anticipated Scarlet-X. The Scarlet is essentially an Epic lite, which isn’t a bad thing. It features many of the same things found in the Epic but with lower resolution and less frame rate options. The Scarlet is able to shot up to 30 fps at 4K which is pretty impressive all way down to 120fps at 1k. The camera also shoots raw footage, which people have been clamoring for. The Scarlet-X is available Nov. 17th. $9,750 for a basic model. RED is known for their accessories, which I imagine will be fairly necessary as things move forward. Either way an impressive camera to say the least.
