Canon EOS 300 cinema cam gets pre-order status, ships at month’s end for $16,000

Published on January 18th, 2012
Back in November we joined Martin Scorsese and other Hollywood luminaries at Paramount Studios for the unveiling of Canon’s latest cinema video camera, which is now available for pre-order. The EOS C300, that aims to compete directly against the Reds of the world, carries a Super 35mm CMOS sensor capable of up to 4K resolution, and should be helped in large part by the company’s top-shelf lenses; like the 14.5-60mm and 30-300mm. When we first met the C300 we told you it’d be priced at a hefty $ 20,000, but that’s no longer the case, instead it’ll cost a less painful $ 16,000 for the body only. The camera will begin shipping “after January 30th,” and if it seems like a little too much for you, at least you can still watch our precious hands-on time with it.
