Another nice C300 short and Review
Mario Feil and Nino Leitner posted a new short last night on Vimeo, made with the C300. A lot of extreme low light stuff plus a nice narrative. They also published a well written review of the...

Re: A letter to Canon

Re: C 300 footage for commercial
One of the comments that stuck from the talkbacks at the canon launch event was when Vincent Laforet mentioned that c-log was quite pleasant to view ungraded compared to s-log. I looked at your S-log...

Re: C 300 footage for commercial

Re: Does Canon ever talk to their customers?
I totally agree. With R3D files, you can definitely go more directions than any 8 bit file. (I stated exactly the same words as you on another thread last week). I think the question that I meant to...

Re: Reasons to go for C300 over RED Scarlet X?
yes...I agree...10 minute films followed by a 20 minute break were a little more than I could take. I wish they would have just run them together in 40 minute blocks. There is a 1080P version of...

Re: Reasons to go for C300 over RED Scarlet X?
On the edge side, let's add low light ability (from what I've heard anecdotally, the red starts to show a lot of noise around 800-1200 ISo.. Which is about the c300's base ISO. Larry Thorpe showed...

#1- the direct competitors for this camera are the f3 $16k and the red scarlet (similarly equipped) $20k
#2 - 120 fps 1080p nobody does this in this price range...scarlet will give it to you at 1k...
