Canon EOS C400 6K Full-Frame Digital Cinema Camera (Canon RF)

Creators seeking a rich cine look with versatile imaging tools can now turn to Canon's RF-mount EOS C400 6K Full-Frame Digital Cinema Camera. This camera is built around a new 6K full-frame, back-illuminated CMOS sensor and features three ISO bases of 800, 3200, and 12,800, accommodating a wide range of light levels. The C400 combines high-resolution imagery with both cine-style and broadcast features, including an optional Cooke/i PL mount, return video, and both Super35 and Super16 modes. It also offers solo shooter-friendly functions such as Dual-Pixel CMOS AF II, internal ND filters, and a compact, lightweight design.
