Canon EOS C300 Mark III

The next generation EOS C300 Mark III features Canon's newly developed 4K Super 35mm DGO sensor with 4K 120p slow motion, high dynamic range and Dual Pixel CMOS AF - all in the same body as the EOS C500 Mark II.

New 4K Super 35mm CMOS sensor for stunning image quality

With its newly developed 4K Super 35mm sensor and DIGIC DV7 image processor, the EOS C300 Mark III delivers an exceptionally high-resolution image with more than 16 f-stops of dynamic range. It also offers superb low-light performance with optimized noise reduction and an ISO sensitivity of up to 102,400 - for shooting in conditions where the human eye can barely see.

The Super 35mm DGO (Dual Gain Output) sensor generates HDR in real-time

The DGO sensor is a newly developed imaging system that provides exceptionally clear low-light image quality and superior HDR imaging. On the DGO sensor, each pixel reads the image at two different levels of gain - one high and one low - which are then combined into a single image. The higher gain readout is optimized to capture clean details in dark areas, while the lower gain readout is optimized to capture details in lighter areas. As a result, the combination of the two results maintains and optimizes detail and quality in both the brightest and darkest areas of the image, giving the camera an impressive higher dynamic range of up to 16+ f-stops. The new DGO sensor is also compatible with Dual Pixel CMOS AF, giving users more freedom to achieve the desired image.

High frame rates up to 120 fps in 4K

The EOS C300 Mark III supports continuous 4K shooting at up to 120 frames per second in both Cinema RAW Light and XF-AVC. In 2K cropped mode, frame rates from 12 to 180 fps can also be set for greater creative freedom, while a dedicated Slow & Fast button provides quick access to the desired Slow & Fast setting.

Camera Internal Electronics IS

The EOS C300 Mark III features an internal Electronic IS (Electronic Image Stabilization) that provides 5-axis compensation for camera shake. Even when using lenses without electronic communication with the camera, the Electronic IS can be used by manually entering the focal length.

User LUT support

Users can create their own LUTs and load them onto the camera to control the precise look. In addition, different LUTs can be used for each signal output. A special LUT button provides additional flexibility.
The EOS C300 Mark III supports ACES 1.0 (Academy Color Encoding System). Using the IDTs supplied by Canon, images captured with the EOS C300 Mark III can be imported directly into ACES-compatible systems.

In addition, the camera's video output can be checked on compatible monitors via ACES proxy.

Different recording formats support broadcast workflows

Two card slots allow simultaneous internal recording of 4K Cinema RAW Light files (10/12 bit) or 4K XF-AVC files (4:2:2 10-bit) on CFexpress cards. XF-AVC supports ALL-I, which provides the best recording quality, and Long-GOP for longer recording times thanks to higher compression. Proxy files can be recorded to an SD card, making post-processing even more efficient.
