We don't get a ton of Canon Cinema EOS information ahead of product launches over the years, but since the EOS R5 C, that has changed a bit.

Yes, good catch. C70 is a typo and should be replaced with C80. C80 is full frame 6k sensor. C70 is 4k Aps-c DGO sensor.Should C70 be C80?
I feel like what I am currently missing are the open gate / DGO / global shutter options. I would really really like open gate. But the C400 otherwise fits all of my needs.I wonder if the higher-end model (C600?) would share the C400 body design (in the same way that the C500II and C300III shared designs). In general, I think the C400 body is great, but suspect the mini-XLR and mini-DIN connectors could be points of friction for some at the higher end.
Given the Burano’s steep $25k (US) price tag, Canon has a good deal of room to play with while still being able to undercut Sony. I’d certainly hope $15k or less … maybe $13k.
But for that price, what could be the differentiating factors vs the C400?
Apart from those, I am not quite sure, since the C400 is pretty fully featured – would be curious to hear others’ thoughts.
- A DGO sensor certainly would be welcomed
- Hopefully they could do this while sticking to the 6K FF resolution (which is certainly the sweet spot now)
- Hopefully they could do this while maintaining the triple base ISO function (which, although not perfect, is very nice to have)
- Hopefully there would be a way to disable the DGO mode to get higher readout speeds
- Two CF Express B slots would certainly be expected
- Open gate/anamorphic capture modes (taller than the normal 17:9 image)
- A body or extension unit with full size connectors
- A USB-C EVF (hopefully could work with the C400)
The wildcard could be a Global Shutter sensor (perhaps as an option), but I am not sure how much demand there would be for that. (If they could manage a Global Shutter sensor with DGO, now that would be quite interesting.)
Agreed, and the FX3 is a great compliment to cover all of the specialty shots.I think a Sony Burano or Sony FX9 style body camera is the perfect form factor for ducumentary filmmakers
