The Canon EOS C100 is a full 1920 x 1080 digital video camera that's compatible with Canon's entire range of  EF mount lenses. Equipped with the same Super 35mm Canon 8.3 Megapixel CMOS image sensor and revolutionary Canon DV III processor as the EOS C300 and EOS C500 series cameras, the C100 is a more compact professional camera that's highly mobile and ideal for those seeking operational convenience and exceptional HD imagery. 

Recording AVCHD format video to dual SD cards, the C100 is compatible with a wide range of workflows and can acquire content to suit a broad range of post production/color-grading preferences, including Canon Log Gamma and a new Canon Wide DR Gamma. Autofocus recording with supported AF lenses, a multi-angle control/LCD panel, and a removable handle and rotating grip are included.
