Overview
<p> The compact, full-featured camera body includes Canon's newly developed 7K full frame CMOS sensor with 3:2 open gate internal recording capabilities, 4K/120P and Cinema RAW Light up to 7K/60P. The EOS C50 features Canon’s next-generation Dual Pixel CMOS AF II, simultaneous 2K crop recording, built-in Frame.io Camera-to-Cloud integration, and supports XC protocol which allows for remote control over IP via Wi-Fi® or a compatible third-party USB-C ethernet adapter. The included detachable top handle adds two full-size XLR audio inputs, a start-stop button, and a zoom rocker. In addition, this camera can capture 32MP still images in Photo mode. The EOS C50 seamlessly integrates into almost any production environment, delivering flexibility and outstanding image quality in a package that practically fits in the palm of your hand.</p> <p><strong>Newly Developed 7K Full Frame CMOS Sensor</strong></p> <p class="text">The EOS C50 features a newly developed 7K full-frame CMOS sensor. The sensor offers exceptionally low noise, enabling it to excel in a wide variety of lighting situations and maximizing the camera’s full dynamic range. The high resolution and realism of 7K enable richer creative expression as well as greater flexibility in workflows, including oversampled 4K 60P.</p> <p class="text"><strong>Full Frame 3:2 “Open Gate” Sensor Mode</strong></p> <p class="text">The EOS C50 is the first Cinema EOS camera to feature open gate recording options, utilizing the full dimensions of the sensor. By selecting Full Frame 3:2 from the Sensor Mode section of the main menu, you can shoot using the full area of the sensor and then use that information in post to crop and re-frame your footage to the aspect ratio of your choice. This is especially valuable when shooting with full-frame anamorphic lenses.</p> <p class="text"><strong>Support for Anamorphic Lens Desqueeze</strong></p> <p class="text">Anamorphic lenses have an elongated rear element that makes it possible to utilize flare and bokeh effects that cannot be achieved with ordinary lenses. The EOS C50 provides desqueeze magnification options including OFF/2x/1.8x/1.5x/1.3x.</p> <p class="text"><strong>Dual Base ISO</strong></p> <p>The full-frame 7K sensor of the EOS C50 offers dual base ISO, which allows the camera to deliver stunning imagery in a wide range of lighting conditions. With base ISOs of 800 and 6400 in Canon Log 2, you will be able to maximize the full dynamic range of the sensor in almost any shooting scenario. The camera also features Auto Selection, which automatically switches from one of the two base ISO levels to another level while maintaining the dynamic range.</p> <p><strong>7K 60P Internal RAW Recording and 4K 120P High Frame Rate Recording</strong></p> <div class="rte parbase"> <div class="rte-cmp standard-component-padding no-component-spacing padding-top-half padding-top-half padding-bottom- padding-left-right-none"> <p>The EOS C50 can record up to 7K 60P Cinema RAW Light with an additional three 12-bit Cinema RAW Light recording modes: HQ, ST and LT.</p> <p>Other recording options include our standard XF-AVC codec which can record in 10-bit 4:2:2, creating rich detail and smooth imagery at frame rates up to 120P, without cropping the image from the sensor. For slow or fast motion recording, the EOS C50 can support up to 4K 120P and 2K 180P.</p> <p>Additionally, the C50 features the XF-AVC S and XF-HEVC S recording codecs. These formats feature an easy-to-manage naming system and folder structure, while recording in the familiar MP4 format and preserving metadata.</p> <p><strong>High Frame Rate Recording with Auto Focus and Subject Detection</strong></p> </div> </div> <div class="contentsplit content-split-classic"> <div class="contentsplit-cmp contentsplit__50-50 -small -white-desktop -white-mobile half-standard-component-spacing"> <div class="cs-content-wrapper"> <div class="content-inner content-split-htl-render text-alignment-mobile__left text-alignment-desktop__left -white-desktop -white-mobile -active"> <div class="classic"> <p class="text">The camera’s Dual Pixel CMOS AF II enables you to keep your subject in focus during slow or fast shooting at speeds up to 4K/120P or 2K/150P. This will help to ensure that even at high frame rates, your subject will remain in clear focus.</p> <div class="cta-wrapper"> <strong>Simultaneous Crop Recording</strong></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="rte parbase"> <div class="rte-cmp standard-component-padding no-component-spacing padding-top-half padding-top-half padding-bottom- padding-left-right-none"> <p>When shooting for social media, an added benefit of the camera is that it allows for simultaneous crop recording when shooting in 4K DCI or UHD, allowing you to record at your chosen aspect ratio while also recording a cropped portion of the frame in 2K. When shooting in simultaneous crop mode, you have up to three format options, depending on your shooting mode: 9:17, 9:16, or 1:1. This will help to reduce turnaround time when formatting videos for different deliverables.</p> <p><strong>Dual Pixel CMOS AF II</strong></p> <p>The EOS C50 supports the next generation of Canon’s acclaimed Dual Pixel CMOS Autofocus, Dual Pixel CMOS AF II. The camera’s sensor provides superb light-capturing efficiency, widening the area of the sensor that can be used for AF to approximately 100% by 100%.</p> <p>The subject detection algorithm utilizes deep learning technology. The face/eye detection can now be set with either left or right eye priority in both humans and animals. Additionally, the animal detection AF now also includes birds.</p> <p><strong>Vertical Shooting UI</strong></p> <div class="rte parbase"> <div class="rte-cmp standard-component-padding no-component-spacing padding-top-half padding-top-half padding-bottom- padding-left-right-none"> <p>When shooting vertically, the display on the EOS C50 can be switched to a UI that supports vertical shooting. It also supports touch controls for recording start/stop from the vertical screen mode.</p> <p>Along with the shooting UI, menu settings and LCD brightness adjustments are also reoriented for vertical shooting to provide an easy-to-read layout. </p> </div> </div> <div class="contentsplit content-split-classic"> <div class="contentsplit-cmp contentsplit__50-50 -large -white-desktop -white-mobile half-standard-component-spacing"> <div class="cs-content-wrapper"> <div class="content-inner content-split-htl-render text-alignment-mobile__left text-alignment-desktop__left -white-desktop -white-mobile -active"> <div class="classic"> <div class="cta-wrapper"> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="image-frame"> </div> </div> </div> <div class="contentsplit content-split-classic"> </div> </div> </div> <div class="column-control"> </div>
