Canon Cinema EOS C400

Discover the next generation of high-end cinema cameras with the Canon Cinema EOS C400. This 6K full-frame video camera with RF mount is both powerful and versatile. It features a BSI (Back Side Illuminated) sensor, as seen in the Canon EOS R3. All connections are located behind the light-sensitive surface, ensuring maximum light output and outstanding noise reduction. The 16-stop dynamic range and advanced Triple Base ISO system also contribute to the stunning image quality of the C400. By selecting the most suitable Base ISO for each lighting situation (800/3200/12800), you can capture beautiful images even in low light.

The Canon Cinema EOS C400 features the latest Dual Pixel CMOS AF II for extremely fast autofocus. The entire focus area is covered right to the absolute edges of the frame. Thanks to the AF profiles Eye, Face, Head and Body, focus always stays on your subject. If your subject momentarily leaves the frame, focus holds without the camera hunting. You can also adjust the focusing speed to suit your needs.

With the EOS C400, you can shoot in 6K at 60fps. Shoot up to 120fps in 4K (oversampled from 6K) with autofocus retained, or 180fps in 2K. The camera offers 4:2:2 10-bit video with, among others, the new XF-HEVC S and XF-AVC S (MP4) codecs for the best and fastest file transfer.

The C400 is equipped with all the connections you need. Use it for film, (live) ENG, and now also virtual productions. The camera features, among other things, two tally lights, a multi-function 21-pin hot shoe, 12G-SDI connection, XLR, DIN, HDMI, USB-C, Ethernet and Wi-Fi. The camera supports Genlock and is compatible with remote controlling, which is particularly handy when you want to operate two cameras simultaneously.

The RF mount makes the camera even more versatile. With a wide range of lenses, each with specific characteristics, you can create the perfect combination for every scene. Because the camera and lens work seamlessly together, you get the best of both worlds. For example, combine the image stabilisation of the camera and the lens for smooth handheld footage. The EOS C400 is also compatible with the Canon PL-RF adapter, allowing you to use PL lenses on this camera without any loss of metadata.
