C100 test files?

[Kevin Lewis]

I am giving serious consideration to the purcahse of this camera, especailly now that the autofocus upgrade is available. Is there a place that I can download test files from the C100?

Nate: I'm looking for files that were shot under studio lighting with L series lenses, as that will typically be my shooting environment. I know the camera looks great with a cinema lens, but at this point they are cost prohibitive.

Nicholas: Thanks for the link. I downloaded those files but none were with studio lighting and some of the scenes were shot with a Cinema lens. Still very helpful though, thank you.

As always, the only real way to know is to rent one for a couple of day. You could get some badly shot test footage in a studio and it put you off the C100 altogether, or you could get some amazing shots that you're unable to reproduce and then you'd be disappointed after spending the money. After all, unless someone is shooting in the same studio with the same lights, same backdrop etc, 'something' will be different.

So, renting one and playing with it for a couple of days is by far the best test.
