Compact professional 4K UHD camcorder

The Canon lens covers a 29.3mm wide angle (35mm equivalent) plus a powerful 612mm reach with Dynamic IS. A digital zoom boosts to 800x with 5-axis image stabilisation.

Fast, precise focusing with face detection

Adjustable focusing speeds and advanced Hybrid AF system give fast and precise focusing. Use the 3.5-inch LCD display to set focus by touching the AF point required. Face Detection AF and Face Tracking are available while Manual Focus is set via the focus/zoom ring.

XF-AVC and MP4 for flexible recording

Choose from XF-AVC or MP4 recording formats. Record XF-AVC 4K UHD 160Mbps at 25P, plus Full HD 45Mbps at 50P/50i/25P. For smaller files, record MP4 4K 150Mbps at 25P and Full HD 35Mbps or 17Mbps at 50P/25P.

Professional inputs and outputs

Output options include simultaneous backup and relay recording via dual SD card and Infrared mode. For specialist capture, record Slow Motion in Full HD 0.5x or Fast Motion in 4K/Full HD up to 1200x. Colour match with other Canon cameras via the custom picture menu.
