Canon EOS C300

[MaxDamage]

Evento 'Cinema EOS' a decorrer neste momento: http://www.engadget.com/2011/11/03/the-canon-hollywood-event-liveblog/

Até agora foi anunciada a Canon EOS c300

É portanto algo na onda da Panasonic AF100 e Sony FS100, se bem que parece apontar para uma gama mais elevada e um target mais pro.

Resta saber as specs.. (mount, sensor, etc.)

+info:

Well, we have to hand it to Canon -- this was one tight-lipped product launch. The imaging company just unveiled its C300 cinema camera at Hollywood's Paramount Studios, in front of a crowd of hundreds of journalists and film industry elite, including Martin Scorsese. Canon is no stranger to the professional photography community, but it has yet to make a name for itself in Hollywood, where cameras such as the Arri Alexa and RED EPIC dominate the digital filmmaking world. The C300 may not appear to be overwhelmingly powerful on paper -- stock features include an EOS or PL mount (not both), 1080p capture, a pair of CF card slots, timecode and HD-SDI output -- but judging by the sample films we saw today, its incredibly powerful sensor and versatile form factor are likely to play a more significant role in making this camera a success.

Fujio Mitarai is saying that the camera is especially well-suited to accurate color reproduction, particularly skin tones.

O pessoal ficou mais entusiasmado com a segunda câmara com o C, do que propriamente com a EOS C300.

A minha previsão:
- finalmente a 5D mk II encontra substituta para quem se dedica ao vídeo.
- vai haver gente a queixar-se de que não tem AF nem AE nem 1080p60 ou 720p120

Preço dos zooms Cine: ~32 mil euros cada

Carito, não?

 

[Warlord]

como tem o anel vermelho para alguns vale todo o dinheiro que pedirem

 

[Almeida100]

Não conheço esta gama de preços, mas calculo que os zooms andem na onda das lentes Fujinon para vídeo. As primes parecem ter preço (e aspecto) semelhante às Zeiss CP.

Entrevista com o Larry Torpe - Senior Director, Professional Engineering and Solutions, Imaging Technologies and Communications Group, Canon U.S.A sobre a C300.

Frankly I think that the genius was to make two versions - an EF version and a PL, and recognize that we have a gigantic constituency of EF users worldwide [...] so they can play with their existing lenses, and then that other gigantic worldwide constituency of PL mounts uses. There's a huge inventory of those lenses out there that people own, and are held by rental agencies - people can just buy the C300 and use their favorite lenses on it. So we're really addressing two big constituencies.

Faz sentido.

 

[strobe]

Não vejo onde esta a "genialidade".

As opções eram:

(1) ter apenas uma opção EF e depois adaptá-la a PL (é o que acontece atualmente com as DSLRs);

(2) ter uma variante EF para os early-adopters endinheirados dispostos a comprar as novas lentes com risco vermelho ou que não se importam de usar lentes sub-ótimas para vídeo e uma versão PL para os utilizadores "sérios"

Optaram pela segunda opção. Quanto a mim as variantes EF não fazem sentido nenhum. É mesmo só para inglês ver.
