JOIN US TOMORROW AT 2pm for a Live Q&A with Mehdia from Canon and Ollie from Korro Films to go through your questions on the C70 in depth! th-cam.com/video/Guo1eWRCQc0/w-d-xo.html
This, for me, is by far the most exciting filmmaking tool to come out in a long time. It's a compact C300 Mark III with an internal data rate that outperforms the S1H. 1.46x Super 35 DGO Sensor, Cinema 4K, CLog 3, Internal ND. Only needs two SD cards, mini-XLR to XLR cable, two extra batteries! No need for a cage. As someone who's used quite a few of the Canon Cinema lineup to date, this is a tremendous feat! Bravo to Canon!
CANON: Let's put 8K raw in a camera with no vents! Overheating won't be an issue, right? Also CANON: Let's add some vents to the C70 so that the 4K 10-bit footage doesn't get too toasty.
Different cameras designed for different users with different priorities. The stills community wouldn't have reacted very well to a bulkier, non-weather sealed R5 just to keep us video users happy. Carl
ProAV TV you can have weather sealing with vents lol. Phones have speakers and ports and retain IP ratings for complete submersion, it wouldn’t be too far to say a camera company couldn’t design a vent made of some sort of mesh with weather sealing against rain. Or just you know, use a better passive heat sink with better copper tubing and vapor chamber cooling
ProAV TV I agree vents and cooling would have added to the size of the R5 and wouldn’t have gone over well with photographers. BUT to get it straight with the weather sealing. The S1H retains its weather sealing with a fan and vents. So it’s not impossible, but impractical for a photographer who would be using the R5
@@hugevibez but the idea is that openings in the body don't cause a lack of cooling. You could maintain resistance while offering better cooling, simply by having a thinner outer body. Let's heat through better or having parts of the camera that are thinner in some places. If the camera is magnesium alloy, they can go pretty thin in some spots and not compromise durability.
This lil beast been on my mind all morning. It’s beautifully made & looks amazing & has all the specs you could ask for at that price range & to top it off it not a dslr it’s a cinema camera! but the price is about $1500 too high... $5500 if you have RF glass & $6000 if you don’t which we all don’t do this camera is actually $6000! The bmpcc6k is $3500 less with all the same features except built in Nd & autofocus which isn’t sitting right with me on canon’s behalf but Other than that this camera is a game changer for canon cinema & dslr lineup. It’s no need to buy a dslr or a c200 if you have this camera already but if you don’t then the c200 is a better deal if you need autofocus & built in Nd!
Amazing video going over all the major specs for this camera and comparison to higher and lower end cameras. I think it's a perfect upgrade after sitting on my beloved C100 mkii
This is quite good !! I always loved my C200 but never shot Raw. I will still use my BMPCC6K for short films, travel and higher end projects but this for Docos and interview style content is pretty sweet. Looks to be the long awaited C100 MK3
ProAv is always on point with all things cinema cameras. Another stellar presentation. Appreciate your work putting together these compelling and easy to follow videos. Your C300 Mk II + Sigma 18-35 (plus good lighting), seems to be the perfect combo for your use. C70 looking better than this? I've already tripped twice leaning so towards this new camera... Upgrading from C100 Mk II.
Thank you! We're glad you're finding the videos useful. The C300 MKII is still a great camera with a fantastic image, there is no doubt about it. If you're upgrading from the C100 MKII then the C70 will be a good option to upgrade too. Since the C70 has the same sensor as the C300 MKIII I would be confidant that it would produce a better image than the C300 MKII for the type of work that we do. Dan
This C70 will be an awesome combo with my R5! I'm new to actual cameras coming off my smartphone but having 2 bodies will provide dual camera angles and scenes to my videos. The RF glass selection expanding to more options is also a plus. I think I came to the video camera game at the perfect time! Just need a powerhouse of a computer to process it all haha!
If 'Canon Mount Adapter EF-EOS R 0.71x' supported with R5... then you can get 4k Crop mode with equivalent FOV as Full frame, Similar sharp image as 4K HQ mode (Since 4K Crop mode oversample from 5.6K- no line skipping/pixel binning), One stop Extra light... and no more overheating issues.
So torn! Coming from a pocket4k I would love built-in ND's and a better battery solution. The only thing that worries me I guess is the lower specced codecs, but does that really matter, these codecs are still great...
ProAV TV yes, the ergonomics look amazing! I would still rig it out for handheld work but being able to strip is down for travel or tighter spaces is amazing.
@@l.no.solace7209 I know. I'm just saying if Canon released an R mount Super 35 cinema camera, it's only a matter of time before they release an R mount APS-C stills camera and discontinue the M mount. I think they will need to make some R mount lenses at focal lengths that make sense for APS-C first, but they might release those along with the new camera.
@@l.no.solace7209 They just need a couple of basic lenses. APS-C users wanting something more sophisticated can either use the full-frame lenses or adapt EF glass while the R mount matures. There are not a ton of EF-M lenses anyway.
How does this match up to the BM 6K pocket cinema camera at three times the price? No RAW, RF mount, SD card recording only? I'm sure the AF is fantastic but I'm not sure where this fits - it's no cinema camera.
Looks really good, wish the bmpcc6k came in this form factor. This camera still isnt worth the price compared to the bmpcc6k for my use. Love the built in NDs and autofocus.
Am pleasantly pleased and surprised (as the C100/C200 never had this) that the new Canon C70 has Timecode I/O. Although I bet most C70 buyers would wish that BNC connector was for HD-SDI instead of TC!
I don’t remember when you guys started doing TH-cam but I’m glad the work you do cuz you have the best connections with companies you get all the first hands before anyone. Really appreciate it.
Thanks very much! I started doing these videos for ProAV 5 years ago now... time flies! But ProAV as a company is 22 years old, so yes we have some pretty strong manufacturer relationships by now and they trust us to not only give us early access but also talk freely about the positives and negatives of their products. Carl
Very interesting! I like how cameras are getting smaller and smaller but maintaining so much usability. Also, some of the footage I've seen does indeed look really fantastic.
Great review! Just to note some official AF limitation when using EF glass with adapter : "Dual Pixel AF area approx. 60% when EF mount lens fitted using EF-RF adapter" Canon says.
8:06 - THIS is such good info that no other reviewers talk about. So many people look at the specs of a new camera and forget about the machine you will need to edit the footage. I see people stretch their budget to the max for new camera systems and forget that they are probably looking at another £2k to buy a machine that can edit things smoothly.
ProAV TV so true. I mean, that’s always been the case with canon’s “entry” level cinema EOS cams. I literally shot the c100mkii for 5 years before just recently upgrading to the c300mkiii. I’d still be using that cam for some situations if I didn’t sell it 😂
mrmarcus ! Unless the bmpcc has autofocus and ibis and built ND filters then it’s irrelevant. Cheaper doesn’t make it better, it just means it cheaper cause it doesn’t do what the more expensive cameras can do...nothing wrong with buying within your budget, but most people want better without compromising and that’s why canon leads the market with almost 50 percent
Thank you, excellent Canon C70 presentation! What is the crop factor of 4K 120 fps and HD 180 fps? How can you get decent focus in bright outdoor filming without OLED-EVF-V50. And what is LONG GOP upto 12 fps in 4K stand for - any loss of quality?
As always a stellar review!! I absolutely love the form factor of this camera...and just consider, the original C300 was 10,000 when it was first released or more!! This camera is far less with a better sensor. The Dual Mini XLR inputs and the new touchscreen menu are a brilliant play!!! Its hard not to have this camera over the Black Magic Pocket with its 16 stops of Dynamic Range. How much is the Speed Booster???
I've been going back and forth between the C300 Mark 2 and the C70. I like all the connection port options the C300 has. I have an ATOMOS flame that has SDI ports but cant decide between these two cameras. I do mostly run-and-gun type docs and presentations. Always one man band. Any thoughts would be great.
Great review as always. Just a question about the RF mount, you say it’s easy to adapt to anything else. As far as I know only PL or EF mounts are adaptable. The RF mount still has a langer flange distance than contemporary lenses by other brands. Then how is it easily adaptable? (Unless there is a fault in my logic)
For the "Look File for Recording (User LUT)," looks like you can import a cube file to monitor, but can you also bake it in? That would be super convenient.
I'm not a Canon fan by any stretch, but between the C70 and the R5, they really seem to be making up for lost time and delivering some truly quality products.
I disagree. This camera seems like 1,500$ over priced. When it was announced i thought it might be a contender to bmpcc4k but its not even close in price. 🤷♂️ it seems like a ripoff to me
Great video! Really intrigued by this camera. A lot of people will probably say they'd rather have RAW in the BMPCCs, but for the majority of people shooting docs or high end corporate work, they would hardly shoot in RAW, and so the 4K capabilities in this camera is, to me, a lot more tempting.
Exactly, the users out there who have no need for RAW is exactly the target audience for this camera. I think its a great approach. If I were making corporate videos, or weddings etc. I would be seriously considering this as my main workhorse personally. Carl
My thoughts exactly. Love hearing the Blackmagic users chime in about there 6k cinema cameras. Despite the fact that often times they need to build out a crazy rigs ( cage, handles, v-mount batteries, monitors, etc.) just to get practical use out of it. Canon cameras are ready to go, out of the box....for the most part. For our work, the c70 checks off a lot of boxes. Wondering if this camera will lower the price point on the C200? Carl?
That's a very interesting camera and it looks solid. But let's just wait for a bit because I feel like the FX6 is right around the corner and will be around the same price point and form factor. Never the less looks solid for docu work but hard to justify the price on lower-end projects.
I love the form factor of this camera. Seems to be a nice balance of studio and also run & gun. Definitely would appeal to a lot of people Plus it sneaks you into the RF lens system by way of those adapters. The price is about $1k higher than I was hoping, otherwise I’d get it without hesitation :)
I really love watching your videos. You have a great presentation style. For me the choice would be between the Canon EOS C200 and the C70. You sell the C200 for £4195 ex-Vat. The C70 is £ 3999 and the EF Mount adapter is £ 440, so the cost of owning the C70 (incl. the essential adapter) comes to £ 4439 ex-Vat. Rather more expensive than C200. So why would I choose the C70? I wonder if you could do a video comparing the two models? Thanks. Comparing it to the C200 I think the C70 is overpriced. I would wait at least 6 months to see the price drop. What say you?
Thanks very much! The C70 as 4K 120p and 10 bit video without using RAW. So depending on your work you could argue it is a far better camera than the c200 Carl
@@PhoenicianSailor well, as I see it, the only advantage shooting raw on c200 over the c70 is changing the white balance in post. C70 files pretty much beat the heck out of c200s raw in terms of DR, noise and recovery from under and over exposing. I love shooting 12 bit raw on my C200 but i think i prefer the xf avc files from c70/c300iii because of pretty much everything including file size.
So latest dual gain sensor, 4k 120, internal end, dual xlr, handheldable, gimbalable, flip screen, dpaf, speedboostable... This might be the perfect camera period. Wonder how theyve crippled it compared to c300 iii?
No raw and no All-I above 4K 30p. Which is why it’s better for corporate than broadcast or narrative. But that’s ok. It’s an incredible camera for the money in my opinion. Carl
Good afternoon, congratulations on the review. I currently have a SONY HXR NX80, I am a freelance cameraman and I would like to evolve. I am interested in the Canon C70 with a 100-500 lens or Sony A7Siii with a 100-400- lens, which do you think would be the best option considering that I would need it to record ballet in theaters where it would be located in the audio room in the background and only with the stage light. The precision of the autofocus is very important to me and the camera would be on a tripod with a zoom servo. Thank you very much and greetings from Lima Peru.
Great stuff! One question, you talk about needing a modern computer to be able to reliably run the higher codec footage (without formatting), but couldn't you dual-write the best codec to one SD card and proxy files to the second SD? Then in post, link them up and you can skip the time-consuming and annoying step of transcoding. Am I mistaken? This was potentially a big selling point for me personally (I'm looking into finalizing my C70 purchase).
Hi there -- fab vids and production. Question: I'm a combat cameraman looking for a small punchy camera. How well would the C70 pair with the canon 18-80 servo zoom? Also, would you happen to know if that lens's control/ rocker tilts vertically? Many thanks, Cheers, Jeff
An internal evf is rather comfortable for video, and in-body stabilization has proven very useful. If the R6 was uncrippled, it would have been better for many jobs. I'm OK with bridging mirrorless and c line so long as it retains the advantages of both.
@@ProAVTV Sure, but that's a different holding position. Anyway, it's always easy to imagine a nicer camera, but this will serve lots of folks regardless. Canon should be applauded for releasing such a body, feel like the xc10 and fs series were a sign of things to come.
Agreed. no IBIS is a deal breaker for me. Would have bought otherwise. Actually would have bought R5 if it hadn't been cripple hammered for video work. It's clear as to why now though with the launch of this. As it is I'm not going to buy either and probably get the A7Siii in the near future.
It s not possible to make focal reducers like this really for mounts which have a long flange distance like the EF mount. It's RF mount that makes it possible here Carl
Thank you for the review. One question though: I heard that using the Focal Reducer Adapter the AF Coverage is reduced to only 60%. Did you plan to test this anytime soon? I'd really like to know if this affected the use of the EF-Lenses that much. Another question: Do you think 128gb storage is enough? Do you know by any chance how many minutes you could record in 4k 25p ALL-I or in Long GOP or even in 4:2:0 mp4? This would be lovely to know ,-)
Hi, Carl. I like very much all the caracteristics the camera have. Recently I purchased the Canon R5 and I think this camera is more suitable for my needs because I do more video work. A question here: why it is aclaimed that this camera is oriented more for weddings, events and documentaries? If this is Cinema camera, and somebdoy has creativity ideas, in my opinion, it be usefull for some short filmmaking, too. Every camera is a tool you can use for your own needs, knowibg well all the camera technical possibilities. What do you think about it?
Absolutely you can use this for cinema production if you want too. Like you say it’s just a tool, it’s capable of fantastic images. So yes you can use it for cinema. I am referring to how it is designed. The form factor, IO, codec options etc. None of which are ideal for cinema, instead aimed at events and docs. Carl
No EVF? No optional EVF? I would probably be clicking pre-order right now if there were SOME EVF option. Even Canon's cheapest stills cameras offer optional EVFs.
I like that it can shoot 4K 16DR that’s great but also would of been nice to have raw capability or at least 12bit+ output would of been amazing especially for that price. With all the cameras canon has released going back to sd cards we should get faster more reliable options like the R5 or the recent cinema cameras from canon are using cfexpres. Really feels like this camera should of had the 8k recording option without overheating instead of the r5 since it’s a cinema camera. Fantastic camera it really is but was expecting a bit more for the price.
Agreed, I think it will take a while for people to figure out whether this camera is designed for them or not. But if you fit the target audience for this camera, it will be a great choice. Carl
Agreed, I think it will take a while for people to figure out whether this camera is designed for them or not. But if you fit the target audience for this camera, it will be a great choice. Carl
No evf (essential for my type of shooting into bright days) raw would have been great too (why not here instead than R5?) will try for sure and see if is good replacements form my beloved c100 II ( most of my costumers are not asking for 4k delivery)
Thats a good question! It definitely does 4K 10 bit 4.2.2 over HDMI. but i'm not sure about 60p. We have a Q&A live stream with Canon tomorrow, I'll ask them then! Carl
This is a MUCH more practical camera than the BMPCC 6K. - Whole host of physical buttons for video use - Built in ND's - High Frame Rates - Flip out screen - Longer battery life Etc. Carl
ProAV TV by the time you rig out a bmpcc6k it’s still cheaper and almost the same size as this lol. The only thing this has going for it is the frame rate options. Flip out screen is still worse than a recorder and a vmount battery still gets more juice than this would. Let’s not pretend that every cinematographer is a run and gun shooter out in the wild, those guys would still want something smaller like an siii.
I have an S1H and when cameras get bigger and heavier the grip needs to start being able to rotate. It get uncomfortable holding throughout the day. I think they need to start moving into the Red Komodo design. A box and a rotating grip separate.
I do agree with that. But the camera is small enough that I think its workable. It does mean the camera is sturdier though, and you get more control on the handgrip. Carl
This one's to compete with sony a7siii price wise right?? Any cripple hammer on this new C70?? Plus wanna know the DR compared to a7siii just for god sake 😂😅
It has the same DGO sensor as the C300 III, so DR should be pretty great! CineD rated the C300 III very highly in their lab tests: www.cined.com/canon-c300-mark-iii-lab-test-pre-production-dynamic-range-rolling-shutter-and-latitude/ Carl
Well done Canon (c300 sensor, auto focus, mini xlr, nd filter, in general very good ergonomie,) but why: no 4k 60P Xavc-i for editing correctly, no viewfinder for outdoor, no raw even in external recorder, not FF (without metabones) and a little too big to think it is photo not vidéo.
Yes it has dual pixel AF like canons other cameras. But no Raw and no EVF I’m afraid. I think the price is reasonable considering it’s essentially a shrunk down C300III Carl
would be perfect if it had internal raw. curious to see how the dynamic range compares with the a7siii...........how well deos the speed booster work with autofocus.......although it's a shame it dopesn't have a post gyro stabilization option like the fx9/a7siii............assuming it has the gyro sensor, perhaps it could be added in firmware
Dynamic range should be well above the a7s III, it has the same DGO sensor as the c300 III which has been getting great results. CineD rated it very highly in their lab tests: www.cined.com/canon-c300-mark-iii-lab-test-pre-production-dynamic-range-rolling-shutter-and-latitude Speedbooster works well with autofocus. Apart from the focus point area shrinking to 60% of the frame, you should get very similar performance to without it. Carl
@@ProAVTV I am curious how the a7siii shooting proress raw with denoising competes. as the lack of raw on this worries me that we will not get to use the full amount of dynamic range (and makes it harder to use for short film work)
@@legendp2011 Sure, but this is a camera primarily designed for people who aren't using the raw. Picture customers who bought a C200, but never went into the raw modes because the data rates were too high. Thats who should buy this camera. Carl
@@freddumartin7878 I am familiar with steadxp+ (although you have to manually calibrate each lens, and if its a zoom lens, you have to calibrate every focal length. Vs an inbuilt system could automaticly recognise the lens)
That's what i always wanted from canon ! but i ordered the sony A7sIII already. will see in time what else is available from canon . I am concern about the law 9.6 megapixel but it's a great portable design for videographers...
This is still different to the Sony. 12 MP can still be used for online photo posting sites whereas 9 is pushing it and will look noticeably softer. But keep in mind the size, the siii targets a very difference user than this does. This is more for rigging up whereas the siii is more for run and gun.
4k video is only 8mega pixels. Anything more than that is just extra/waste. Unless it downsamples from 6k or something. Many hollywood cameras are only 7 or 8 megapixels.
Depends if you actually use the raw side of the camera or not. If you do, then yes the C200 is great value for money, if you don't then a C70 will probably suit you better. Yes, All-I is only up to 30p, anything higher than that changes to LongGOP which is one of the only real drawbacks here for me. Carl
Biggest complaint I’ve had about C line has been how many menu clicks it takes to jump back and forth between framerates/slowmo. Can the C70 be configured so a single button press can toggle between 4k 24fps and 120fps?
What an awesome camera for ENG and on the go shooting. The Mini XLR makes a ton of sense. Eats up less space, and it is still balanced with phantom power. I wouldn't know what the fuss would be about. Many pro gear have used mini XLR and it is fine. I have been wondering what would be a C100 successor and still have 4K as an option. I don't need or care about 8K. Just silly right now. Not sure what Canon was doing there for R5 and R6. Outright silly. 8K may have been a bone tossed to the general public for everyone complaining that Cinema only gets the good stuff, and that is not a lie for the longest time. 24fps taken away from certain Canon cameras. What was that about? I want to learn more about C70. Looks really good. Glad I saw this video.
Well that depends on many things. Do you use the stills side of the camera? Do you think the larger sensor and higher resolution would make more of a difference to your work than the DGO sensor, AF, Higher frame rates and video ergonomics on the C70 ? Carl
With the new focal reducer you can only use full frame lenses. But Canon already have adaptors without optical elements in them that will work with APSC lenses like this one: www.proav.co.uk/canon-mount-adapter-ef-eos-r Dan
Hard to understand to be honest! 100% sure it's capable of raw... But Canon just didn't make it available. Typical Canon Move. Still, an impressive camera in my opinion.
My bet is 6000usd little bit more but little bit better in codecs of this c70. I don’t understand why its this supuse a professional line have lower option that R5 and no talking about the Super overrated 8k
In such an insatiable market dropping the Quasimodo of cinema cameras has me wondering - has Canon been absent in this area for too long? It's been 10 long years since the 5D MkII

If you have been a c200 user without using Raw, this will be a great camera for you!
Carl
Really excited for this one - hoping that it’ll be my first cinema camera 🎥
I'm confused he said it's good for documentary and events. Didn't say for films or short films.

RTX 3090: am I a joke to you?
premiere: what is a gpu??
I've been scouring the internet for this card all morning lol
Premier is using gpu from a few updates back
Haha :)))
JibaroTech it does, but no way near as much as Resolve
The side shooting feature is great!! I even like it's weird looks 😂
If 'Canon Mount Adapter EF-EOS R 0.71x' supported with R5... then you can get 4k Crop mode with equivalent FOV as Full frame, Similar sharp image as 4K HQ mode (Since 4K Crop mode oversample from 5.6K- no line skipping/pixel binning), One stop Extra light... and no more overheating issues.
So torn! Coming from a pocket4k I would love built-in ND's and a better battery solution. The only thing that worries me I guess is the lower specced codecs, but does that really matter, these codecs are still great...
you wont be disappointed, the c300mk3 sensor looks so much better, and i own a p4k
This is a much more ergonomic camera to use than the Pocket 4K.
Carl
Nicholas Boule that’s great to hear, even the LongGop filed above 30p?
ProAV TV yes, the ergonomics look amazing! I would still rig it out for handheld work but being able to strip is down for travel or tighter spaces is amazing.
@@ProAVTV its very exciting, probably my next purchase
This camera is a perfect transition for the R mount to replace the M mount on APS-C cameras.
Nobody buys these compared to apsc
@@l.no.solace7209 I know. I'm just saying if Canon released an R mount Super 35 cinema camera, it's only a matter of time before they release an R mount APS-C stills camera and discontinue the M mount. I think they will need to make some R mount lenses at focal lengths that make sense for APS-C first, but they might release those along with the new camera.
@@danieldougan269 theyd need to severely work on the R lenses first and make apsc better before changing that. Lots of time and work before
@@l.no.solace7209 They just need a couple of basic lenses. APS-C users wanting something more sophisticated can either use the full-frame lenses or adapt EF glass while the R mount matures. There are not a ton of EF-M lenses anyway.
Thanks for your great work Carl & proAV team!
No problem. Thanks for watching!
Carl
Great job, Canon. I wouldn't go for a RED or Aria over this at all. There's something magical about it.
How does this match up to the BM 6K pocket cinema camera at three times the price? No RAW, RF mount, SD card recording only? I'm sure the AF is fantastic but I'm not sure where this fits - it's no cinema camera.
Looks really good, wish the bmpcc6k came in this form factor. This camera still isnt worth the price compared to the bmpcc6k for my use. Love the built in NDs and autofocus.
Am pleasantly pleased and surprised (as the C100/C200 never had this) that the new Canon C70 has Timecode I/O.
Although I bet most C70 buyers would wish that BNC connector was for HD-SDI instead of TC!
Finally the 5D Mark II has a successor!
subtle shade and powerfully true!
Would you care to explain, I've never really heard much about the 5d Mark ii
Bloggers and TH-camr will be happy to see a compact dedicated video camera 😊
This is a fantastic tool for creating for youtube!
We will certainly be using it ourselves
Carl
Canon finally upgraded the 5D Mark II.
I don’t remember when you guys started doing TH-cam but I’m glad the work you do cuz you have the best connections with companies you get all the first hands before anyone. Really appreciate it.
Thanks very much!
I started doing these videos for ProAV 5 years ago now... time flies!
But ProAV as a company is 22 years old, so yes we have some pretty strong manufacturer relationships by now and they trust us to not only give us early access but also talk freely about the positives and negatives of their products.
Carl
Very interesting! I like how cameras are getting smaller and smaller but maintaining so much usability. Also, some of the footage I've seen does indeed look really fantastic.
It should be! Its the same sensor as the C300 III which is VERY impressive
Carl
Great review! Just to note some official AF limitation when using EF glass with adapter :
"Dual Pixel AF area approx. 60% when EF mount lens fitted using EF-RF adapter" Canon says.
I hope, Canon will also release a XF505 soon.
There is unfortunately no small camcorder on the market with 2160p/50 @4:2:2 10 bit.
8:06 - THIS is such good info that no other reviewers talk about. So many people look at the specs of a new camera and forget about the machine you will need to edit the footage. I see people stretch their budget to the max for new camera systems and forget that they are probably looking at another £2k to buy a machine that can edit things smoothly.
There are codec choices in here that most people will be able to edit fine. But yes, its an important piece of the picture
Carl
You must be new to proxy workflows
@@Dilandau88 You must have a slow computer ;)
This will get a lot of people into their first cinema camera, no doubt
It has legs to last though, not just as a gateway camera. For lots of people this will be a solid workhorse for many years!
Carl
ProAV TV so true. I mean, that’s always been the case with canon’s “entry” level cinema EOS cams. I literally shot the c100mkii for 5 years before just recently upgrading to the c300mkiii. I’d still be using that cam for some situations if I didn’t sell it 😂
😂😂😂😂
Sam Lucas You forgot the BMPCC?
mrmarcus ! Unless the bmpcc has autofocus and ibis and built ND filters then it’s irrelevant. Cheaper doesn’t make it better, it just means it cheaper cause it doesn’t do what the more expensive cameras can do...nothing wrong with buying within your budget, but most people want better without compromising and that’s why canon leads the market with almost 50 percent
Thank you, excellent Canon C70 presentation! What is the crop factor of 4K 120 fps and HD 180 fps? How can you get decent focus in bright outdoor filming without OLED-EVF-V50. And what is LONG GOP upto 12 fps in 4K stand for - any loss of quality?
As always a stellar review!! I absolutely love the form factor of this camera...and just consider, the original C300 was 10,000 when it was first released or more!! This camera is far less with a better sensor. The Dual Mini XLR inputs and the new touchscreen menu are a brilliant play!!! Its hard not to have this camera over the Black Magic Pocket with its 16 stops of Dynamic Range. How much is the Speed Booster???
The touch screen kind of mimics the Black Magic touch screen. Which is nice 👍🏽
It's a huge leap from the c100.
Great overview Carl! It's an exciting camera, but a bit of an awkward one lol. Curious what they'll do with the C50
I've been going back and forth between the C300 Mark 2 and the C70. I like all the connection port options the C300 has. I have an ATOMOS flame that has SDI ports but cant decide between these two cameras. I do mostly run-and-gun type docs and presentations. Always one man band. Any thoughts would be great.
Great review as always. Just a question about the RF mount, you say it’s easy to adapt to anything else. As far as I know only PL or EF mounts are adaptable. The RF mount still has a langer flange distance than contemporary lenses by other brands. Then how is it easily adaptable? (Unless there is a fault in my logic)
For the "Look File for Recording (User LUT)," looks like you can import a cube file to monitor, but can you also bake it in? That would be super convenient.
Excellent video. Informative and well articulated. Nice work👍🏽
This is a superb First look of the C70. Thanks
I'm not a Canon fan by any stretch, but between the C70 and the R5, they really seem to be making up for lost time and delivering some truly quality products.
This has clearly been planned to be a big year for Canon for quite some time!
Carl
I disagree. This camera seems like 1,500$ over priced. When it was announced i thought it might be a contender to bmpcc4k but its not even close in price. 🤷♂️ it seems like a ripoff to me
@@baqcasanke You could be spot on about it being over priced, I just thought they seemed like actually good quality...
Great video! Really intrigued by this camera. A lot of people will probably say they'd rather have RAW in the BMPCCs, but for the majority of people shooting docs or high end corporate work, they would hardly shoot in RAW, and so the 4K capabilities in this camera is, to me, a lot more tempting.
Exactly, the users out there who have no need for RAW is exactly the target audience for this camera. I think its a great approach. If I were making corporate videos, or weddings etc. I would be seriously considering this as my main workhorse personally.
Carl
My thoughts exactly. Love hearing the Blackmagic users chime in about there 6k cinema cameras. Despite the fact that often times they need to build out a crazy rigs ( cage, handles, v-mount batteries, monitors, etc.) just to get practical use out of it. Canon cameras are ready to go, out of the box....for the most part. For our work, the c70 checks off a lot of boxes. Wondering if this camera will lower the price point on the C200? Carl?
That's a very interesting camera and it looks solid. But let's just wait for a bit because I feel like the FX6 is right around the corner and will be around the same price point and form factor. Never the less looks solid for docu work but hard to justify the price on lower-end projects.
It would make sense. But the only info on release date for the fx6 so far is 2020.
Carl
For events, weddings and documentaries... This camera would be great..
Absolutely. That is the core market this is designed for.
Carl
What do you think about the C70 (compared to a Pocket 4K/6K) in a short film/music video scenario? Is Canon's codec as good as a BRAW? Thanks!
for the touchscreen they looked at Blackmagic cameras like the 6K
I think a lot of manufacturers have been. Blackmagic nailed the touchscreen menu design.
Carl
Certainly note. Black magic has no flip screen and it's mindblowingly stupid from their strategy. That alone would sell much more of their cameras
I love the form factor of this camera.
Seems to be a nice balance of studio and also run & gun. Definitely would appeal to a lot of people
Plus it sneaks you into the RF lens system by way of those adapters.
The price is about $1k higher than I was hoping, otherwise I’d get it without hesitation :)
Prices could always be lower couldn’t they! But I think it’s quite reasonably priced considering it’s effectively a mini C300III
Carl
I really love watching your videos. You have a great presentation style.
For me the choice would be between the Canon EOS C200 and the C70. You sell the C200 for £4195 ex-Vat. The C70 is £ 3999 and the EF Mount adapter is £ 440, so the cost of owning the C70 (incl. the essential adapter) comes to £ 4439 ex-Vat. Rather more expensive than C200. So why would I choose the C70? I wonder if you could do a video comparing the two models? Thanks. Comparing it to the C200 I think the C70 is overpriced. I would wait at least 6 months to see the price drop. What say you?
Thanks very much!
The C70 as 4K 120p and 10 bit video without using RAW. So depending on your work you could argue it is a far better camera than the c200
Carl
@@ProAVTV the c200 has internal 12 bit RAW. So depending on your work you could argue it is a far better camera than the C70.
@@PhoenicianSailor So this sounds like a case of there being 6 of one, and a half dozen of the other. Conundrum!!! But thanks, guys.
@@ProAVTV Thanks. So this sounds like a case of there being 6 of one, and a half dozen of the other. Conundrum!!! But thanks, guys.
@@PhoenicianSailor well, as I see it, the only advantage shooting raw on c200 over the c70 is changing the white balance in post. C70 files pretty much beat the heck out of c200s raw in terms of DR, noise and recovery from under and over exposing. I love shooting 12 bit raw on my C200 but i think i prefer the xf avc files from c70/c300iii because of pretty much everything including file size.
Was excited until "recording format" section
Tom Cypher pro res would be really helpful and not actually break people’s computers
So latest dual gain sensor, 4k 120, internal end, dual xlr, handheldable, gimbalable, flip screen, dpaf, speedboostable... This might be the perfect camera period. Wonder how theyve crippled it compared to c300 iii?
No raw and no All-I above 4K 30p. Which is why it’s better for corporate than broadcast or narrative. But that’s ok. It’s an incredible camera for the money in my opinion.
Carl
Good afternoon, congratulations on the review. I currently have a SONY HXR NX80, I am a freelance cameraman and I would like to evolve. I am interested in the Canon C70 with a 100-500 lens or Sony A7Siii with a 100-400- lens, which do you think would be the best option considering that I would need it to record ballet in theaters where it would be located in the audio room in the background and only with the stage light. The precision of the autofocus is very important to me and the camera would be on a tripod with a zoom servo. Thank you very much and greetings from Lima Peru.
It seems like there will not be a c100 III anymore. Love C70 body size....been waiting for a c100 update with a smaller body and here is the answer.
I doubt we will ever see a c100 III
But thats ok, as long as cameras like this exist to fill the gap
Carl
Great stuff! One question, you talk about needing a modern computer to be able to reliably run the higher codec footage (without formatting), but couldn't you dual-write the best codec to one SD card and proxy files to the second SD? Then in post, link them up and you can skip the time-consuming and annoying step of transcoding. Am I mistaken? This was potentially a big selling point for me personally (I'm looking into finalizing my C70 purchase).
You absolutely can, there's a dedicated option in the menu for recording full quality files to slot A and proxies to slot B.
Dan
Hi there -- fab vids and production. Question: I'm a combat cameraman looking for a small punchy camera. How well would the C70 pair with the canon 18-80 servo zoom? Also, would you happen to know if that lens's control/ rocker tilts vertically? Many thanks, Cheers, Jeff
An internal evf is rather comfortable for video, and in-body stabilization has proven very useful. If the R6 was uncrippled, it would have been better for many jobs. I'm OK with bridging mirrorless and c line so long as it retains the advantages of both.
I do agree on the EVF. But the trouble is, they put them on cameras like the C100 and then people didn't like them so they took them off.
Carl
@@ProAVTV Sure, but that's a different holding position. Anyway, it's always easy to imagine a nicer camera, but this will serve lots of folks regardless. Canon should be applauded for releasing such a body, feel like the xc10 and fs series were a sign of things to come.
Tempting! Will likely stick with a7siii until they put in IBIS in a future model
Agreed. no IBIS is a deal breaker for me. Would have bought otherwise. Actually would have bought R5 if it hadn't been cripple hammered for video work. It's clear as to why now though with the launch of this. As it is I'm not going to buy either and probably get the A7Siii in the near future.
Sure, if IBIS is more important to your work then the video ergonomics of the C70. Built in ND's etc. Then the A7s III will be a great choice.
Carl
The B&H Review says there is IBIS with RF Lenses. Maybe they messed up and it was only lens-based?
@@JamesBenet I think that's software based "ibis"
@@nabin9768 Strange that it only works on RF lenses. EF with adapter should work too. IBIS is a must have feature IMO.
I would love that they make that speedbooster adapter also for other older canon aps-c's
It s not possible to make focal reducers like this really for mounts which have a long flange distance like the EF mount. It's RF mount that makes it possible here
Carl
@@ProAVTV i suspected that would be an issue ...only not sure .
Thanks Carl , great channel !
Thank you for the review. One question though: I heard that using the Focal Reducer Adapter the AF Coverage is reduced to only 60%. Did you plan to test this anytime soon? I'd really like to know if this affected the use of the EF-Lenses that much. Another question: Do you think 128gb storage is enough? Do you know by any chance how many minutes you could record in 4k 25p ALL-I or in Long GOP or even in 4:2:0 mp4? This would be lovely to know ,-)
Can you use a C200 side handle with the C70 to trigger start and stop recording?
Would be nice
Hi, Carl. I like very much all the caracteristics the camera have. Recently I purchased the Canon R5 and I think this camera is more suitable for my needs because I do more video work. A question here: why it is aclaimed that this camera is oriented more for weddings, events and documentaries? If this is Cinema camera, and somebdoy has creativity ideas, in my opinion, it be usefull for some short filmmaking, too. Every camera is a tool you can use for your own needs, knowibg well all the camera technical possibilities. What do you think about it?
Absolutely you can use this for cinema production if you want too. Like you say it’s just a tool, it’s capable of fantastic images. So yes you can use it for cinema. I am referring to how it is designed. The form factor, IO, codec options etc. None of which are ideal for cinema, instead aimed at events and docs.
Carl
@@ProAVTV Thanks, Carl.
No EVF? No optional EVF? I would probably be clicking pre-order right now if there were SOME EVF option. Even Canon's cheapest stills cameras offer optional EVFs.
This isn’t a stills camera...

I like that it can shoot 4K 16DR that’s great but also would of been nice to have raw capability or at least 12bit+ output would of been amazing especially for that price. With all the cameras canon has released going back to sd cards we should get faster more reliable options like the R5 or the recent cinema cameras from canon are using cfexpres. Really feels like this camera should of had the 8k recording option without overheating instead of the r5 since it’s a cinema camera. Fantastic camera it really is but was expecting a bit more for the price.
Potato jet must be nut right now
This seems to be a winner already!
Agreed, I think it will take a while for people to figure out whether this camera is designed for them or not. But if you fit the target audience for this camera, it will be a great choice.

@@ProAVTV True, but that is not my question. I wonder why many very good video cameras do not give you RAW
Beaglefreilauf Kalkar its greed so they wont cannibalize their more expensive cinema cameras.
Kez yeah, and sigma and Blackmagic sell 4K/6K video cameras that do raw. No wonder people are going over to BM workflow, with Davinci

Awesome walkthrough chaps, thanks!
Thanks for watching!

No evf (essential for my type of shooting into bright days) raw would have been great too (why not here instead than R5?) will try for sure and see if is good replacements form my beloved c100 II ( most of my costumers are not asking for 4k delivery)
This will definitely be a great upgrade from the C100 II

Great overview of this new camera! Looks really interesting and might be a better option for me instead of a C300 mkiii.

Hello! What Camera do you use for a shot on 7:38? Colors is awesome.

Carl
So you can buy two bmpcc6k and keep 1000£? Fun😊
This is a MUCH more practical camera than the BMPCC 6K.
- Whole host of physical buttons for video use
- Built in ND's
- High Frame Rates
- Flip out screen
- Longer battery life
Etc.
Carl
@@ProAVTV Still, considering the specs it's simply overpriced.
ProAV TV by the time you rig out a bmpcc6k it’s still cheaper and almost the same size as this lol. The only thing this has going for it is the frame rate options. Flip out screen is still worse than a recorder and a vmount battery still gets more juice than this would. Let’s not pretend that every cinematographer is a run and gun shooter out in the wild, those guys would still want something smaller like an siii.
Carl’s right per usual. For real world scenarios without any headaches, this seems the better of the two options.
@@ProAVTV Braw is just unbeatable atm.
I have an S1H and when cameras get bigger and heavier the grip needs to start being able to rotate. It get uncomfortable holding throughout the day. I think they need to start moving into the Red Komodo design. A box and a rotating grip separate.
I do agree with that. But the camera is small enough that I think its workable. It does mean the camera is sturdier though, and you get more control on the handgrip.
Carl
Great video! Did Canon mention any record time limits in 4k60 or 4k120?
No record time limits
Carl
This one's to compete with sony a7siii price wise right??
Any cripple hammer on this new C70??
Plus wanna know the DR compared to a7siii just for god sake 😂😅
It has the same DGO sensor as the C300 III, so DR should be pretty great!
CineD rated the C300 III very highly in their lab tests: www.cined.com/canon-c300-mark-iii-lab-test-pre-production-dynamic-range-rolling-shutter-and-latitude/
Carl
Well done Canon (c300 sensor, auto focus, mini xlr, nd filter, in general very good ergonomie,) but why: no 4k 60P Xavc-i for editing correctly, no viewfinder for outdoor, no raw even in external recorder, not FF (without metabones) and a little too big to think it is photo not vidéo.
Cool gig, but no raw? Does it have dual af? No evf? $5500 is affordable but too steep for the offering.
Yes it has dual pixel AF like canons other cameras. But no Raw and no EVF I’m afraid. I think the price is reasonable considering it’s essentially a shrunk down C300III
Carl
would be perfect if it had internal raw. curious to see how the dynamic range compares with the a7siii...........how well deos the speed booster work with autofocus.......although it's a shame it dopesn't have a post gyro stabilization option like the fx9/a7siii............assuming it has the gyro sensor, perhaps it could be added in firmware
Dynamic range should be well above the a7s III, it has the same DGO sensor as the c300 III which has been getting great results. CineD rated it very highly in their lab tests: www.cined.com/canon-c300-mark-iii-lab-test-pre-production-dynamic-range-rolling-shutter-and-latitude
Speedbooster works well with autofocus. Apart from the focus point area shrinking to 60% of the frame, you should get very similar performance to without it.
Carl
@@ProAVTV I am curious how the a7siii shooting proress raw with denoising competes. as the lack of raw on this worries me that we will not get to use the full amount of dynamic range (and makes it harder to use for short film work)
@@legendp2011 Sure, but this is a camera primarily designed for people who aren't using the raw.
Picture customers who bought a C200, but never went into the raw modes because the data rates were too high. Thats who should buy this camera.

You can find aftermarket gyro-devices that you hook up to your camera (using the audio input) to stabilize your footage. It works on any cameras.
@@freddumartin7878 I am familiar with steadxp+ (although you have to manually calibrate each lens, and if its a zoom lens, you have to calibrate every focal length. Vs an inbuilt system could automaticly recognise the lens)
...when will they start putting 5inch built in screens on these cameras? seems im always adding a external monitor
There’s not really space on a body like this for a larger screen.
Carl
The C70 sounds like a great video camera. Is the C50 just a rumor or will be announced between Oct and Dec?
Until Canon officially announce something it’s always just a rumour. Who knows!
Carl
So can I buy the handle separately so that my xt4 looks as cinematic is this does but works better?
That's what i always wanted from canon ! but i ordered the sony A7sIII already. will see in time what else is available from canon . I am concern about the law 9.6 megapixel but it's a great portable design for videographers...
This is still different to the Sony. 12 MP can still be used for online photo posting sites whereas 9 is pushing it and will look noticeably softer. But keep in mind the size, the siii targets a very difference user than this does. This is more for rigging up whereas the siii is more for run and gun.
4k video is only 8mega pixels. Anything more than that is just extra/waste. Unless it downsamples from 6k or something.
Many hollywood cameras are only 7 or 8 megapixels.
Can you do an autofocus test comparison RF vs EF (using adapter)?
Nice! Anyone know what that tripod is? It looks great.
It is this one: www.proav.co.uk/e-image-gh06-761at-aluminium-tripod-system

Carl
maybe this cinema camera is meant for learners, anyone who is still learning how to use a cinema camera and how to make a film in general
Thanks for the informative video. Does this have phantom power for say shotgun mics?
Yes the Mini XLRs carry phantom power
Carl
C200 still looks like the better buy, but this is really impressive.
Isn't it a bit strange that All-I is only capable of 30fps, 60 fps has to be GOP?
Depends if you actually use the raw side of the camera or not. If you do, then yes the C200 is great value for money, if you don't then a C70 will probably suit you better.
Yes, All-I is only up to 30p, anything higher than that changes to LongGOP which is one of the only real drawbacks here for me.
Carl
Biggest complaint I’ve had about C line has been how many menu clicks it takes to jump back and forth between framerates/slowmo. Can the C70 be configured so a single button press can toggle between 4k 24fps and 120fps?
Looks like a Xerox Copier design team from the 80s were hired to make this cinderblock
😂😂
What an awesome camera for ENG and on the go shooting. The Mini XLR makes a ton of sense. Eats up less space, and it is still balanced with phantom power. I wouldn't know what the fuss would be about. Many pro gear have used mini XLR and it is fine. I have been wondering what would be a C100 successor and still have 4K as an option. I don't need or care about 8K. Just silly right now. Not sure what Canon was doing there for R5 and R6. Outright silly. 8K may have been a bone tossed to the general public for everyone complaining that Cinema only gets the good stuff, and that is not a lie for the longest time. 24fps taken away from certain Canon cameras. What was that about? I want to learn more about C70. Looks really good. Glad I saw this video.
Thanks for watching. Sounds like the C70 will be a great option for you
Carl
Carl, can you ask 2 questions? 1. Is the HD always in Super16mm crop, and 2 any plans for an addon EVF or loupe?
Only the 2K 180fps mode is in Super16 crop, I believe.
Great preview! Do you think I should sell my S1H now and get this?
Well that depends on many things. Do you use the stills side of the camera? Do you think the larger sensor and higher resolution would make more of a difference to your work than the DGO sensor, AF, Higher frame rates and video ergonomics on the C70 ?
Carl
@@ProAVTV Perfect answer. How long will it take till the update the adapter for more Canon lenses? That's crucial question for me.
Can you only use full frame lenses with the adapter? Or can you used Apsc lenses as well like sigma 18-35?
With the new focal reducer you can only use full frame lenses. But Canon already have adaptors without optical elements in them that will work with APSC lenses like this one: www.proav.co.uk/canon-mount-adapter-ef-eos-r

Why does Canon not have RAW on a camera like this while we have do have RAW on the BMPCC4K and 6k?
Hard to understand to be honest! 100% sure it's capable of raw... But Canon just didn't make it available. Typical Canon Move. Still, an impressive camera in my opinion.
Waitng for the FX6....i think will be in the same range of price, am i right?
probably not
My bet is 6000usd little bit more but little bit better in codecs of this c70. I don’t understand why its this supuse a professional line have lower option that R5 and no talking about the Super overrated 8k
Who knows!

In such an insatiable market dropping the Quasimodo of cinema cameras has me wondering - has Canon been absent in this area for too long? It's been 10 long years since the 5D MkII
