More than just a camera, the C300* and C300 PL* cameras mark the beginning of a whole new system for the motion picture industry. Form factor, ergonomics, image processing and lenses – re-imagined to tailor the experience of shooting to the needs of professional cinematography crews.

Large imager unleashes full creative potential. Modeled on the Super 35mm 3-perf motion picture film standard, Canon’s CMOS sensor has an active image size of 24.6 x 13.8mm. The image sensor utilizes an innovative readout technique that delivers full bandwidth individual RGB video components without the need for any
debayering algorithms.


Taking into account various shooting scenarios, the EOS C300* can accommodate situations where every last inch of maneuverability counts. With day-long shooting comfort and usability in mind, different components can be added or removed as needed. It’s also compatible with industry standard, third-party accessories so it can be easily rigged for studio, Steadicam, jib or just about any other configuration imaginable.
Seamless integration with NLEs is just the beginning of effective post-processing. Clean image quality. Low S/N ratio. Canon Log Gamma for expanded dynamic range. File formats that hold up when multiple effects and color corrections are applied. Robust enough for the big screen, but convenient enough for on-set review and tweaking.


Available in either EF- or PL-mount configurations, Canon’s entry into the digital cinematography market allows the user to choose the right camera for their lenses and production needs.
Not only is the EOS C300* versatile and compact, it’s ready to go right out of the box. Attach your choice of lens and start telling your story.
The removable handgrip rotates as needed. It also has start/stop, iris control, and multi-controller functions. Also included is a 4-inch, 1.23 MP LCD Monitor/Control panel that rotates and accepts microphone XLR connections.
An onboard waveform monitor and vectorscope eliminates the need for external exposure and color analyzers.
Includes: EOS C300* body, monitor unit, viewfinder, eye cup, handle, thumb rest, XF Utilities, shoulder strap, WFT attachment, tripod base, battery pack, battery charger, AC cable, power adapter, DC cable.
