highest expectations of industry professionals. The following are just some of the many features that will help
turn your creative vision into reality.
4K Recording System with Cinema Quality
Advanced 4K-compatible Super 35mm CMOS
sensor
The camera is equipped with the new Super 35mm
CMOS sensor and two DIGIC DV 5 image
processors so it can capture and process video at
an effective pixel count of 8.85 megapixels
(4096x2160) and offer a center resolution of 1,800

can record at a wide range of sensitivity settings

,
from ISO 160 to ISO 25600. And, using the new
Canon Log 2 gamma curve, you can obtain an
impressively wide dynamic range equivalent to 15

be believed!

The ISO speed range can be extended up to ISO 100 on
one end, and ISO 102400 on the other.
Interchangeable lenses
Enjoy the freedom of using interchangeable lenses
to achieve the look you want. The EOS C300 Mark II
features an EF lens mount allowing you to use over
100 high-quality lenses from the Canon Cinema
Lens series and EF Lens series.
4K RAW output (A 164)
The camera has two SDI interface terminals, the
MON. terminal and REC OUT terminal. You can
connect an external recorder (A 163) to either
terminal to record 4K RAW data. You can also apply
a LUT to video output from both terminals (A 167).
Using the LUT that meets the ACES standard, you
even have the option to perform on-site color
grading (A 24). Additionally, the MON. terminal
only, also supports output of onscreen displays and
other assistance functions.
Multitude of options with the versatile XF-AVC
format (A 62)
The camera offers you numerous options when it
comes to the video configuration of your recordings.
XF-AVC Intra-frame options use H.264 Intra-frame
compression to achieve maximum image quality.
You can select to record 4K or 2K

video with
YCbCr 4:2:2, 10-bit color sampling, or 2K video with
RGB 4:4:4, 10- or 12-bit color sampling.

Refers to video with a resolution of 2048x1080 or
1920x1080.
XF-AVC Long GOP options (high image quality,
smaller data size) and XF-AVC Proxy options (proxy
data for offline editing), on the other hand, use Long
GOP compression. You can select to record 2K
video with a color sampling of YCbCr 4:2:2, 10 bit or
YCbCr 4:2:0, 8 bit.
The highest bit rate available is 410 Mbps using
XF-AVC Intra-frame, 50 Mbps using XF-AVC Long
GOP, and 24 Mbps for XF-AVC Proxy options.
Recording media
The camera records 4K and 2K video and 4-channel
16-/24-bit audio to CFast 2.0 cards, a popular type
of memory card with extremely high transfer rates.
The camera is equipped with two CFast card slots
so you can use two CFast cards to continue
recording on the other card when the one being
used becomes full (relay recording) or to record the
same clip simultaneously on both cards to have a
backup recording (double slot recording) (A 50).
The camera has also an SD card slot. While you
record primary clips on a CFast card, you can
simultaneously record proxy clips –smaller files for
offline editing– on an SD card (A 111).
The file format used for all clips is MXF (Material
eXchange Format) so files are compatible with major
non-linear editing (NLE) software.
Operability and Adaptability
Freely customizable compact design
The modular components, including the supplied
monitor unit, handle unit and grip unit will let you
expand and adapt the camera’s configuration to
match your shooting conditions (A 39). The handle
unit and supplied bracket have multiple cold
accessory shoes and sockets for screws of different
diameters to offer a large number of options for
attaching additional accessories to the camera. You
can also use the optional RD-1 Rod Clamp to attach
to the camera commercially available viewfinders
with a 15 mm (0.59 in.) rod or replace the
supplied monitor unit with the optional MA-400
Microphone Adapter for broadcast-style one-person
operation.
The camera features a total of 22 buttons (on the
camera’s body, monitor unit and grip unit) to which
you can assign a large number of functions
(A 131). Assign functions that you use often to the
assignable buttons you find most convenient to
personalize the camera to your needs and
preferences.
