Canon has unveiled the EOS-1D C, which can capture 4K (4096 x 2160 pixel) videos up to 24p without downscaling, from an APS-H crop of its 18MP full-frame sensor.The camera, which shares a majority of its specifications with the still-awaited EOS 1D X, can also capture 1080p60 or 50p or output it uncompressed via the HDMI connector. The camera will cost approximately €10,000 and will be available from October.
The 1D C gains a series of features from the C300 Full HD camera launched last year. This includes Canon Log Gamma – a very flat, low contrast, high dynamic range response, allowing footage from both cameras to be mixed together and colour-graded identically.
