Interchangeable lenses

Enjoy the freedom and creative versatility of using interchangeable lenses to achieve exactly the look you want. The camcorder features an EF lens mount allowing you to use a huge variety of high-quality Canon EF lenses, including the new high-end Canon Cinema lenses, as well as other lenses.

Superb HD video

The camcorder offers you a whole array of options when it comes to the video configuration of your recordings. By controlling the system frequency (50.00 Hz recordings or 59.94 Hz recordings), bit rate, resolution and frame rate of your recordings you can select a video configuration to suit your needs from a total of 24 different combinations.

Operability and Adaptability

Freely customizable compact design

At its most compact configuration, the camcorder offers convenient and hassle-free hand-held operation. Modular components let you expand your options. The handle unit, for example, adds advanced audio capabilities allowing for simple one- person operation (A29).

Recording media

The camcorder supports all the latest types of Secure Digital (SD) cards. You can even make lengthy recordings without worry because the camcorder features two SD card slots. When one SD card becomes full, the recording will automatically continue on the other one when you use relay recording (A41).

In addition, using double slot recording (A41) lets you record the same clip simultaneously to both SD cards.

Enhanced automatic functions

The camera features a variety of automatic functions to support a simple one-person operation. These include automatic aperture and push auto iris

(A60) for automatic aperture adjustment as long as you press and hold the button, automatic white balance (A64) to let the camcorder continuously adjust the optimal white balance setting, and continuous AF or One-shot AF (A65) to let the camcorder focus automatically one time.

Versatile Artistic Expression

Custom picture settings

With custom picture settings (A92), you can enjoy unparalleled image control to deliver the look you want by adjusting parameters, such as gamma and color matrix. The camcorder also features a new, easy interface that lets you adjust the gamma curve and white balance using an intuitive graph. The custom picture settings can be saved onto an SD card, which allows multiple C100 camcorders to use the same settings.

Canon Log gamma (A49) for cinematic recordings

You can easily apply the [/CINEMA Locked] preset settings, especially designed with professional cinematography in mind. The Canon Log gamma makes the most of the newly- developed image sensor to achieve amazing dynamic range, allowing you to realize in post- production the artistic vision you desire.
