Old dog still learning. Manual white balancing the C300 PLUS a faster way to use a 4×4
I’ve been using the Canon C300 for many years now and I love the camera. The sensor is very sensitive and has great color. Sure I wish it had a little more as far as frame rate options go but the camera is still delivering. As a DP I tend to like to mix things […]
Canon’s New Flagship C700 Used in Short Film “The Calling”
Canon released a nice piece that was captured with the new flagship C700 cinema camera.

Canon Introduces New EOS M5 Mirrorless APS-C Camera

Interesting news from Canon this morning. A new development of a CMOS Global Shutter Sensor. Don’t get to excited because this is the first stage of the sensor and probably won’t be in a camera for at least a year but as you read the press release it states that they have also been able […]
The Canon 5D MKIV Isn’t a Video Camera. Surprise! Or maybe not
For a while know I’ve been having discussions with my fellow camera geeks and DP’s about the new Canon 5D MKIV and the first thing I say is “it’s not a video camera. It’s a pro DSLR that shoots video”. That’s it. Canon doesn’t want it to be like a Sony A7s ii or A7r […]

Nice overview of the new Canon COMPACT-SERVO 18-80mm T4.4 EF I played with this lens at NAB and was really impressed. The good news is this is the first in a series that Canon is developing. It looks like the price will be $5250. Yes it’s a lot of money but much less than a Canon cine […]
