CANON EOS C80

CANON EOS C80

Full-frame 6K cinema capture in mirrorless form

Canon's full-frame 6K cinema camera, which offers exceptional full-frame 6K30 capture in a compact form, combines the EOS C400's CMOS sensor with a lightweight design similar to the EOS C70. Ideal for quick shoots and solo operators, this digital camera features triple ISO bases of 800, 3200, and 12,800 in log/raw, enhanced Dual Pixel CMOS AF II autofocus, and simultaneous 12G-SDI and HDMI video output. The EOS C80's RF mount provides compatibility with Canon's fast and reliable RF lenses, and a motorized ND filter wheel allows for on-the-fly exposure adjustment.

6K full-frame sensor

The full-frame 6K CMOS sensor at the heart of the C80 camera allows it to deliver exceptionally low noise, greater sensitivity efficiency, and improved 4K images through 6K oversampling. All this is made possible by the enhanced light capture technology of the stacked and back-illuminated CMOS sensor.

Multiple recording formats

• The multiple recording formats of the C80 include up to 6K30 full-frame Canon Cinema RAW Light LT and Super 35 cropped up to 4K30 in RAW ST and 4K60 in RAW LT.
• 4K 120p or 2K 180p is available with maximized details, all with 10-bit 4:2:2 color.
• Slow and fast motion can be captured at speeds of up to UHD 4K120 in HEVC and AVC codecs.
• Simplify your editing process with the XF-AVC S and XF-HEVC S codecs, which feature a simpler naming system and folder structure, as well as the preservation of metadata, all within the established MP4 format.

RF lens mount

• An integrated RF lens mount makes the EOS C80 compatible with Canon's fast and reliable RF mount lens lineup, featuring advanced coatings and image stabilization.
• With a short flange distance, the RF mount helps significantly reduce the depth of the camera body, resulting in a more compact design.

Optional PL-RF adapter

• A new PL-RF lens mount adapter allows you to access a wide variety of cinema-style lenses with an ARRI PL mount.
• This adapter features Cooke/i metadata compatibility and locking plates for a secure fit.

Multiple interfaces, including 12G-SDI

• The video outputs include full-size HDMI and 12G-SDI BNC outputs that can be used simultaneously to feed a built-in monitor, a video transmitter, or an EVF.
• Use the USB-C port for UVC video output or to connect to a smartphone or Canon's GP-E2 GPS receiver.
• A BNC connector allows users to input and output time code, facilitating synchronization in multi-camera shoots.
• Please note that the BNC port can output either SDI video or timecode, but not both simultaneously.

Dual Pixel CMOS Autofocus

• The enhanced Dual-Pixel CMOS AF technology uses each pixel on approximately 100% of the CMOS sensor for focus detection and image information.
• The excellent light capture of the back-illuminated stacked sensor expands the sensor area, which can be used for AF.
• The EOS C80 also offers the EOS iTR AF X autofocus function with an algorithm developed using deep learning technology to detect the human form.

Mini-XLR audio inputs

• Two mini-XLR inputs with phantom power and manual control dials provide professional audio recording options.
• The EOS C80 supports 4-channel audio through two mini-XLR ports, an internal stereo microphone, and a 3.5 mm microphone input.

Built-in ND filters

• Designed for the short flange distance of the EOS C80 RF mount, a thin motorized ND filter unit allows users to quickly select up to 10 stops of neutral density.
• The ND button controls on the right side of the camera allow operators to quickly adjust the exposure while maintaining the depth of field of their shot.

Support for Log2/3 and 3D LUT

For greater post-production flexibility, the C80 offers Canon's Log 2 and Log 3 gamma modes, which provide an expanded dynamic range with excellent tonal reproduction for highlights and low-light areas in images. The EOS C80 is also compatible with 3D LUTs, allowing you to achieve the most accurate color reproduction on both the LCD screen and your external viewing monitors.

Compact design with tiltable LCD

• The compact EOS C80 features a lightweight design with a built-in ergonomic grip and joystick control.
• It has a multi-accessory shoe on top and comes with a detachable handle and a microphone mount.
• The LCD screen features a reinforced hinge and built-in controls such as focus peaking, waveforms, and more.
• Two SD card slots / Multiple recording options
• The two SD card slots of the EOS C80 offer simultaneous, relay, and proxy video recording. The EOS C80 can also capture JPEG still photos.

Ethernet and Wi-Fi Control

• Use the Ethernet port and the integrated Wi-Fi with an optional Canon RC-IP1000 or RC-IP100 unit to access the remote control based on the XC protocol.
• The compatibility with the Canon Multicamera Control app for iPhone provides monitoring and start/stop, focus, iris, zoom, ND filter, ISO, shutter, white balance, custom image control and more.

BP-AN series battery

• Use the included BP-A30N battery, a BP-A60N battery, or a 24 VDC adapter to power the C80. Older BP-A batteries can also be used, but they will not power the multi-accessory shoe.
• Admit your C80 with a third-party frame to add a V-mount or gold mount battery plate to allow for longer run times.
