C700, The New Generation of Cinema Camera

The C700 is designed to be a flexible “A” camera for episodic TV and Hollywood films, but it is also very suitable for use as a documentary camera.

“Working with the C700 though, this was the first time I felt with a Canon camera, ‘Wow, I could go out and feel really comfortable shooting a feature film with it.’ Not only because of what it is capable of sensor-wise, but also because of the design and ergonomics.
