CANON EOS R5 C – The Complete Guide
The Canon EOS R5C is a professional video-oriented camera. This mirrorless camera brings together the functionality of Cinema EOS and EOS R, with video first. That makes it the perfect hybrid solution for any image maker who also likes to shoot. With 8K video, 45-megapixel photos and the revolutionary RF mount, the EOS R5C is ready for anything.
Shoot cinema-quality 8K video at 30fps or Full HD 4K video with oversampling. With an external power supply, the EOS R5C can even run at 60fps in 8K. The full-frame CMOS sensor delivers images with incredible clarity, minimal footprint, and wide dynamic range. Get burst speeds of up to 20 photos per second and shoot in low light with an ISO sensitivity of up to 51,200. The powerful 5-axis electronic IS works seamlessly with the lenses’ optical IS, but can also work independently.
The EOS R5C features fast and accurate Dual Pixel CMOS AF with Eye AF and EOS iTR AF X technology for reliable face, head and eye detection. This works even if the subject moves away from the camera. Manual focusing is also a breeze thanks to Canon’s innovative Dual Pixel Focus Guide, a visual aid for sharp results.
Professional recording formats and tools provide a wide range of creative options. There are three options Cinema RAW Light (LT/ST/HQ), XF-AVC, MP4, and even RAW output via HDMI. Canon Log 3, PQ and HLG recordings deliver unprecedented dynamic range, and with professional tools like Waveform Monitor and False Colors, you’ll be able to take your film projects to the next level.
The compact design of the EOS R5C with an active cooling system is suitable for long recordings. The magnesium alloy body is exceptionally durable. There are two options with the on/off switch: Photo and Video. Here you choose whether to start the camera as a photo or video camera. Both modes have their own recognizable menu, associated with the EOS R and Cinema EOS system. The OLED viewfinder has a high resolution and the camera features a bright 3.2” flip-up LCD screen. Additionally, there are 13 assignable buttons. Thanks to the RF mount, the EOS R5C is compatible with RF lenses for Canon’s full-frame mirrorless cameras, and you can enjoy the benefits of advanced autofocus and stabilization. Of course, with a mount adapter EF-EOS R it is also possible to use your EF cinema and photographic lenses. With 2x, 1.8x, and 1.3x compression options, there’s also compatibility with anamorphic lenses.
Unlimited connectivity includes Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, the multifunction accessory shoe, and dedicated connections for timecode, 3.5mm microphone, micro HDMI, flash sync, and USB-C. The camera is also compatible with various photo and video apps, such as image.canon, Content Transfer Mobile, Browser Remote, and more. So you’ll be ready for anything, at any time.
