Look Out FX9! The Canon C300 Mark III Is About To Drop

Yes, it’s true. The Canon C300 Mark III is about to drop people!

Now I don’t want to start this out busting Canon’s balls here, but it’s about damn time my friends! — I say that with love. But seriously, Internal 4k RAW capture at 120fps — Thank you very much! And that’s not all, this camera comes jam packed with awesome key features that will make any DP’s head spin around and think twice before purchasing that Sony FX9.

I heard some rumors floating around in the ether about this camera, but I wasn’t prepared for these impressive specs to come with such a competitive and accessible price tag.

But at the end of the day it took them forever to get here. Did they arrive too late?

Let’s take a look at it!

Look Out FX9! The Canon C300 Mark III Is About To Drop

Improvements

 

High Frame Rates

Right off the bat I’m going to bring it up again. We’ve been waiting so long for Canon to drop a 4K camera with the ability to capture 120fps using 100% of the sensor for a price tag around 10K (That’s a mouthful, I know). There’s always been little to no high speed capabilities that utilized the entirety of the sensor without cropping and running the risk of a noisier image.

When the C500 mark II dropped with it’s 5.9k sensor, it was only packing 120 fps at 2K resolution which left many scratching their heads. Same goes for the Canon C700. We got 72 — That was still an improvement from 60, but it was only in 4K and it was still cropping the sensor.

Now, thankfully our griping has been heard and the C300 Mark III is their response. And it’s also worth noting that you can shoot up to 180 fps in 2K which is super useful when you’re finishing in 1080 and 120 fps isn’t quite cutting it.

Body Design

One thing that was always a point of defeat for the C300 series next to Sony’s FX cameras — was their body design. It was never ergonomic and conveniently designed like the FX cameras were. As soon as the C500 Mark II and the C700 dropped, it was clear that Canon answered the prayers of many loyal consumers. The design definitely reminds me of an FX camera and seems way more practical. Now the C300 series has adopted this same design and we’re all happy they did. It’s almost exact to the C500 MkII.

New Super 35mm DGO Sensor

When I heard about Canon’s new sensor, I got really excited. The Super 35mm Dual Gain Output (DGO) sensor at a size of 26.2 x 13.8 is capable of dynamic ranges in excess of 16 stops and is compatible with Canon’s exclusive Dual Pixel CMOS Autofocus technology according to Canon. Shooting Canon log 2 will give you full use of the 16+ stops of dynamic range while using Canon Log 3 drops you down to 14 stops of DR.

They just recently developed this imaging system and it’s cutting edge (for canon). It generates high dynamic range and maintains low noise levels by reading out EACH pixel with different gains. That’s genius! By combining images using pixels shot with a saturation-prioritizing amplifier for bright areas and a lower-noise noise-prioritizing amplifier for darker areas, you get pristine exposure from low to highlight with close to no noise in your shadows. I can’t wait to get my hands on this camera and see what the limits of this sensor are and how closely it compares to other sensors like Arri’s Alev III.

Like the Mark II, there’s no oversampling involved so you’ll be capturing 4K imagery that has a softer touch and feels a little more cinematic and less digital. Check out the example below — behind-the-scenes of ‘Boneyard Ballet’ and see what I mean.

5 axis Image stabilization

Like it’s older brother, the C500 — the C300 Mark III includes built-in 5-axis electronic image stabilization. Many are against IS features like this due to it’s manipulation of the picture and the inevitable loss of quality to do so, but from what I’m seeing in some of the examples, that loss of quality is not noticeable to the human eye.

The data from the onboard gyroscopic sensor communicates with the Digic DV7 processor which then makes high speed calculations that instruct the repositioning of the selected active image area.

We first saw IS with the Canon EOS R5, then we saw a more advanced version of this IS system with the C500 MkII which is what the C300 MkIII comes equipped with. The camera is intuitive enough to utilize all 5 axis when coupled with a lens with no IS and works in tandem with a lens that does by dealing with only the axis (Roll, X/Y) that the lens IS (Yaw, Pitch) lacks.

The lens’s focal length is automatically or manually set to help the system adjust properly to the digital IS. It’s worth noting that this IS system is compatible with anamorphic lenses.

Internal cinema RAW Light

No longer do you have to record uncompressed RAW though dual 3G-SDI outputs to an external recorder. Now with the DIGIC DV7 image processor, the C300 MkIII can record Cinema RAW Light directly to onboard CF Express cards which is huge! You get so much more freedom in post when grading as opposed to the XF-AVC codec. 

The Dual Gain Output (DGO) technology produces 16+ stops of dynamic range while maintaining file sizes that are about 1/5 to 1/3 the size of Canon Cinema RAW. This gives you the same efficiency/quality while saving space and money.

This is another internal option we’ve been begging for, for some time now. It’s great to see it come to fruition and is something that will change the game when it comes to competing with the Sony FX line of cameras. I think it might be tilting in Canon’s favor a bit. Their color technology has always been superior to Sony’s in my opinion.

Anamorphic Lens support

I got really excited when I saw this. Another complaint that was answered with this camera was their ability to offer DPs support for both 2.0 and 1.33 Anamorphic lens types. This allows you to achieve beautiful cinematic imagery complete with vibrant flares and the much desired oval bokeh.

This is a big deal and sets the C300 MkIII apart from its competition in a massive way. Now more filmmakers are likely to take this camera more seriously as a back pocket tool and an A cam candidate for Narratives.

Interchangeable lens mount (Supports any lens)

Finally, they’ve got an interchangeable lens mount that works similar to cameras like RED and others where you unscrew and swap out the mount that you need. Comes stock with an EF mount, but can be changed to a Locking EF or PL mount. The purchase comes with shims that allow you to adjust back focus and dial in the accuracy necessary to execute on a professional level.

Look Out FX9! The Canon C300 Mark III Is About To Drop

Comparison

The Sony FX9 utilizes a 6K sensor that records oversampled 4K footage, so what you’ll end up with is an image that looks more digital. That can be a plus for some if a sharper image is what you’re looking to achieve, but if you want that soft 35mm look that feels more cinematic, then the C300 MkIII is the obvious winner. 

Beside that, the C300 MkIII is offering 120fps 4K RAW recording while the FX9 can only record 120fps in S35 mode, recording RAW QFHD 3840×2160, but this is only available with future firmware updates and an external XDCA-FX9 extension unit with a single BNC cable connection to compatible external RAW recorders. I’d say Canon wins for not forcing you to utilize/purchase an external recorder/extension.

When it comes to the body design, no longer do the Sony FX cameras dominate in the ergonomics category, Canon has stepped it up and delivered a construction that is efficient for accessories, stabilization and weight distribution.

The C300 MkIII is only $1 more than the FX9. This makes it really competitive, but has many wondering — Did Canon miss the moat? The FX9 has been out for a while now and I’m sure many C300 MkII owners crossed over and jumped ship. I’ve even read that some think they should have released the C300 MkIII alongside the C500 MkII, but it is what it is. In my opinion, I think the camera will contend well against the FX9 and other competitors under 12K regardless of the late arrival.

The C300 MkIII offers the Dual Gain Output with their sensor and the Sony FX9 offers Dual Base ISO. Both might sound like they’re doing the same thing, but they’re really not. The Dual Gain Output creates an HDR image that reads out each pixel with different gains and this works with any ISO setting, but clearly works best with their base ISO. The Dual Base ISO works a little different. It’s not an HDR image persay, but it achieves one of the key functions — less noise. I’d have to play with both cameras before I came to a conclusion about which is better.

Possible Drawbacks

There’s not many drawbacks with this camera. I’d have to admit that I was reaching for the few that I came up with.

  • Image stabilization doesn’t work with RAW recording. It only works when recording in XF-AVC or XAVC Long GOP.
  • 2K (Super 16mm) crops the image and doesn’t oversample. Possibly due to keeping a consistent soft image.
  • The internal NDs likely forced the designers to stray away from an RF mount and instead we have to pay $1600 for a PL mount and swap it out with a screwdriver.

Either way, these drawbacks are minor! From the looks of it, this camera kicks major ass and I can’t wait to get my hands on one.
