“We developed the Cinema EOS C500 digital cinema camera to deliver the benefits of full 4K motion capture to Hollywood’s premier filmmakers, while the C100 is designed for economical productions that need sophisticated HD capabilities and optical lens diversity. As we said in November of 2011, the C300 was just the beginning to our Cinema EOS system and we now offer a more complete system of imaging solutions with a range of cameras for every level of production,”
The Canon EOS C500 and C500 PL 4K Digital Cinema Cameras will be arriving in stores during October for an estimated list price of around $30,000. While the Canon EOS C100 will be available in November 2012 for around $8,000. Also check out the newly announced Canon EOS 6D full frame DSLR camera.
