Highlights of the Camera

The Canon Digital Cinema Camera EOS C700 / EOS C700 PL / EOS C700 GS PL / EOS C700 FF / EOS C700 FF PL has been designed to meet the demanding needs and highest expectations of industry professionals. The following are just some of the many features that will help turn your creative vision into reality.

4K Recording System with Cinema Quality

Advanced CMOS sensor The camera features a Super 35mm-equivalent CMOS sensor (Z[), a Super 35mm- equivalent CMOS sensor with global electronic shutter (]) or full-frame CMOS sensor (q ). With the sensors effective pixel count of 8.85 megapixels (Z[ ]) or 18.69 megapixels (q r) and the Triple DIGIC DV5 imaging engine, this camera delivers superb images. Because the camera uses oversampling to produce 4K video from the 18.69-megapixel sensor (q ), the image quality is outstanding. Thanks to Canons high sensitivity and low-noise technology, the camera can record at a wide range of sensitivity settings, from ISO 160 to ISO 256001. Using one of the Canon Log gamma curves you can make the most of the image sensors characteristics to obtain a very wide dynamic range. 1 The ISO speed range depends on the model and can be

extended.

Interchangeable lenses With some models featuring different lens mounts and shutter mechanisms, the camera offers the freedom to use the lens you want in order to achieve exactly the look you want. With the models featuring an EF lens mount (Zq), you can use over 100 high-quality lenses from Canons EF and EF Cinema lens series. Whereas the models featuring a PL lens mount ([]r) let you use a variety of industry-standard PL lenses. Using the global shutter model (]), you can shoot fast-moving subjects without worrying about rolling shutter distortions or artifacts. And using compatible broadcast lenses2 and EF Cinema lenses (A 240), you will be able to control the aperture and zoom using the camera3. The camera also supports the use of anamorphic lenses (A 122). 2 The optional MO-4E or MO-4P B4 Mount Adapter is

required. 3 Depending on the lens used, you may need to connect

the 12-pin camera interface cable to the camera.

Choose your format XF-AVC or ProRes Using the XF-AVC format, the camera can use two codecs (H.264 Intra-frame and H.264 Long GOP) so you can select the video configuration from YCbCr 4:2:2, 10 bit, RGB 4:4:4, 10 or 12 bit, or YCbCr 4:2:0, 8 bit, to suit your creative needs. Using

Apples ProRes format, you have the choice of the 10-bit ProRes 422 HQ codec, 12-bit ProRes 4444 codec and 10-bit ProRes 422 codec.

RAW recording and output exceeding 4K You can use a recorder docked with the camera (A 21) to record RAW video at over 4K4. At the same time, you can apply a LUT that meets the ACES standard to video output from the MON. terminals or the HDMI OUT terminal to use this video output for on-set color grading (A 22). 4 The resolution of RAW recordings depends on the model.

Recording media The camera features two CFast card slots and an SD card slot. It records main recording clips (XF-AVC or ProRes) on the CFast cards. When you insert two CFast cards in the camera, the camera can record simultaneously on both cards (double slot recording), or it can switch automatically to recording on the other CFast card when a CFast card becomes full (relay recording) (A 52). In addition to the main recording, you can activate the simultaneous sub recording (A 71). Sub recording clips can be recorded on the CFast card (XF-AVC Intra) or on the SD card (XF-AVC Proxy).

Operability and Adaptability

Expandable modular design The sturdy camera body was designed with ease of use and expandability in mind. It features a multitude of screw holes of different diameters on its top and bottom plates to offer a large number of options for attaching additional accessories to the camera. Using the optional EVF-V70 OLED Electronic Viewfinder (17 mm (0.7 in.), 1920x1080 pixels/ approx. 6.22 million dots), OU-700 Remote Operation Unit, SU-15 Shoulder Support Unit and SG-1 Shoulder Style Grip Unit, you can quickly optimize the camera for one-person operation or for team operation from both sides, depending on your needs (A 38). The camera offers assignable buttons and a customizable USER screen (using the screen buttons) that you can customize to your preferences from a large number of convenient functions (A 127). Optional accessories offer additional assignable buttons. Assign functions that you use often to the assignable buttons you find most convenient to personalize the camera to your needs and preferences.

5

Power options You can power the camera using commercially available V-mount batteries or power sources connected to the DC IN 12V terminal (XLR 4-pin jack) (A 26). The camera also offers power outputs (24 V DC, 12 V DC or D-Tap) to supply power to connected accessories (A 28).

Remote operation You can attach the optional RC-V100 Remote Controller to the camera to control it from a distance. The remote controller lets you control a wide range of camera settings (A 123). Connect the camera to a network (Wi-Fi5 or wired) to operate it remotely from a network device using the Browser Remote application (A 170). Browser Remote lets you check the live view image from the camera, adjust main camera settings and change the metadata embedded with XF-AVC clips. 5 The optional WFT-E6 or WFT-E8 Wireless File Transmitter

is required.

Versatile Artistic Expression

Slow & fast motion (A 68) Change the shooting frame rate to create a slow motion effect or fast motion effect.

Custom picture settings Select one of the preset color settings or set the combination of gamma curve, color space and color matrix that you wish to use. Then, you can adjust a number of other image-related parameters in detail. With wide color space options such as BT.2020 Gamut and Cinema Gamut, and the Canon Log 3 gamma curve, which keeps the characteristics of the Canon Log gamma while expanding the dynamic range, you can be sure that the camera covers your creative needs.

Other Functions

IP streaming and FTP transfer Connect the camera to a network (Wi-Fi6 or wired) to stream live transmissions or breaking images via IP and to transfer sub recordings (XF-AVC Proxy clips) from the SD card to a remote server using the FTP protocol. 6 The optional WFT-E6 or WFT-E8 Wireless File Transmitter

is required.

Software for aiding production workflow Canon XF Utility (A 161) lets you copy the XF-AVC clips you recorded from your recording media to a computer, play back the clips and organize them. Cinema RAW Development (A 161) can develop RAW data and export it as a standard file type such as DPX or OpenEXR. You can also import an EDL to recreate an edit created on NLE software. This helps make a smooth transition to the color grading process.

Dual Pixel CMOS AF and autofocus functions (Zq) The camera features Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology, which covers almost 80% of the recording area, and offers various autofocus functions (A 89): continuous AF, one-shot AF (to use autofocus only when you choose) or AF-boosted MF (to let you focus manually most of the way and let the camera finish focusing automatically). Using AF-boosted MF the camera does not perform unreliable focus adjustments, resulting in a smoother focusing operation than with continuous AF. The camera also features face detection (A 96), tracking of moving subjects (A 97) and the Dual Pixel Focus Guide function (A 90), a visual, intuitive guide that you can use to check if the image is in focus. This can be very helpful to ensure you always get amazingly sharp video when shooting with resolutions 4K and higher.

Assistance functions The camera offers a number of assistance functions, such as peaking and magnification (A 90), onscreen markers (A 98), zebra patterns (A 99), B&W image (A 195), false color display (A 100) and waveform monitor (A 115) that you can display on an optional viewfinder or on external monitors connected to the MON. terminals or HDMI OUT terminal. When using a logarithmic gamma curve, you can also apply a LUT (A 155) for easier monitoring.

Other helpful features Five levels of ND filter (A 78). Z[q Flash band

correction (A 75). In-camera correction for peripheral illumination

and chromatic aberration (A 47). Built-in level (electronic horizon) (A 40). Illuminated buttons for night time or black-out

operation. Monaural built-in microphone for note taking. Customizable onscreen displays (A 139). Three sets of customizable My Menu submenus

(A 35). Menu settings file that can be saved in the camera

or on an SD card to restore all the menu settings or replicate them perfectly on another C700 series camera (A 140).

Improved clip name format with more information for easier identification and organization of clips (A 62).

Metadata and geotagging (A 118, 120, 180).

4K Workflow Overview

4K Workflow Overview The following illustrates the typical 4K workflow for this camera.

Shoot in 4K mode (A 65).

You can record RAW data on a CDX-36150 Recorder docked with the camera. You can also record Intra-frame (YCbCr 4:2:2) 4K data on a CDX-36150 Recorder or on a CFast card in the camera.

In addition to the main RAW recording, you can record simultaneously an additional sub recording in the camera (A 71). You can use the CFast card (XF-AVC clips, 4K or 2K) or SD card (XF-AVC Proxy clips, 2K), depending on the type of sub recording clips you need or how you intend to use them in post-production.

After recording RAW data, you can develop the RAW data using the Cinema RAW Development software (A 161) to generate full-quality data. Using the Canon RAW Plugin, you can work with RAW recordings directly from supported NLE applications.

You can also generate proxy data with the software. YCbCr 4:2:2 clips recorded on the CFast card can be treated as full-quality data without any additional

processing.

Transfer the 2K clips recorded in the camera or CDX-36150 Recorder, or proxy data generated by the software, to your NLE system and edit offline (A 161).

Perform color grading based on the full-quality data.

Preparations

Preparing the Backup Battery The camera uses a CR2025 lithium button battery as a backup battery to ensure that the cameras settings are not lost when no other power source is connected to the camera. To install the supplied lithium button battery, you will need to remove any extension modules attached to the camera*. * The camera is shipped with the battery adapter for V-mount batteries attached.

Removing an Extension Module The following procedure is explained using the battery adapter for V-mount batteries supplied with the camera as example.

1 Use the supplied hex wrench to remove the four fixation screws from the top and bottom of the battery adapter.

2 Slide the battery adapter release switch in the direction of the arrow. The locking lever will pop out.

3 Pull the locking lever all the way up and pull the top of the battery adapter away from the camera.

4 Lift up the battery adapter and remove it from the camera.

5 Push down the locking lever until it clicks.

Preparing the Backup Battery

24

Inserting the Lithium Button Battery The camera features a built-in backup battery so the camera settings are not lost while you replace the lithium button battery.

1 Make sure no power supply is connected to the DC IN 12V terminal.

2 Turn the lithium battery compartment cover to the OPEN position and remove the cover. Use a coin or a similar tool. If you keep turning the cover beyond

the OPEN point, the cover will rise a little, making it easier to grab.

3 Insert the supplied lithium button battery with the + side facing out.

4 Replace the cover and turn it to the LOCK position to lock it.

NOTES

The built-in backup battery will be completely depleted if you do not use the camera for about 1 month. Replacing the lithium button battery in such case will reset all the cameras settings to default values. To avoid losing the settings, you can save them on an SD card in advance (A 140).

To recharge the built-in backup battery, turn off the camera and connect a sufficiently charged power source (battery or DC IN 12V terminal). The built-in backup battery will be fully charged in about 24 hours.

Installing an Extension Module The following procedure is explained using the battery adapter for V-mount batteries supplied with the camera as example.

1 Slide the battery adapter release switch in the direction of the arrow. The locking lever will pop out. Once it does, pull the locking lever all the way up.

2 Attach the battery adapter to the camera and slide it down. Align the positioning protrusions on the battery adapter with the holes on the cameras body.

3 Gently press the battery adapter toward the camera.

You can use the [System Setup] > [Low Power Warning] settings to set a critical power level independently for the DC IN 12V terminal and battery. When the power input to the camera reaches the predetermined level, the onscreen power indicator will change to red and a message will appear in the [LIVE] screen. When using a battery compatible with BMS (battery management system), you can even set the warning level as a percentage of the remaining battery charge instead of voltage. * This screen shows only the voltage of the CDX-36150 Recorders power supply (DC IN or battery).

NOTES

If the power supplied to the camera is at or below the level set for the power level warning (A 199), the camera will not start recording.

Preparing the Main Power Supply

28

Power Outputs The camera features three power outputs for accessories: the DC OUT 24V 2A terminal, the DC OUT 12V 2A terminal and the D-TAP terminal on the battery adapter.

* Actual levels may vary depending on the power source supplying the camera.

Changing Camera Settings with the Screen Buttons There are three basic ways to change the various camera settings: Using the screens that appear on the cameras control display and the screen buttons, using the camera menu displayed on the control display, and using the monitoring menu displayed on monitoring devices along with the cameras image. The menus will be explained in the following section (A 32). This section will explain the use of the control display screens and screen buttons. When an optional OU-700 Remote Operation Unit is connected to the camera, using the OU-700 is identical to using the cameras control display and buttons.

Unlike the menus, the function of the screen buttons changes dynamically depending on the button pressed on the camera and the screen currently displayed on the control display. The current function of the screen buttons is displayed in the gray area immediately above/below the screen button. If applicable, the current setting is displayed within the white enclosure connected to it.

The HOME, USER, ALT, TC and PLAY buttons, each opens a different setup screen where you can change settings or perform actions (A 187).

Options HOME screen: This screen is displayed by default when you turn on the camera. In this screen you can change

the frame rate, aperture and ND filter settings, shutter speed, ISO speed/gain, custom picture settings and white balance. You can also check the status of the camera, clip name, recording format, information about recording media and power supply.

USER screen: You can customize this screen to your needs by assigning the functions you prefer to the 6 screen buttons.

ALT screen: In this screen you can change settings related to autofocus (Zq) and the focus assistance functions, audio, the cameras electronic level and network functions.

TC screen: In this screen you can change time code related settings. PLAY screen: In this screen you can control the playback of your recordings (playback mode).

SELECT dial: Turn to move between options. SET button: Confirm the selected option.

BACK button: Return to the previous screen without changing the setting.

Screen button. In this example, pressing the button will open a screen where you can change the shutter speed.

Current function of the screen button. In the manual pressing this screen button will be referred to as Press [SHUTTER].Current value of the shutter speed.

In-Camera Lens Correction Depending on the characteristics of the lens used, the corners of an image frame may be darker than the center due to light fall-off (peripheral illumination drop), or color shift/color fringing may be visible along high-contrast edges in the image (chromatic aberration). If the camera has correction data available for the lens used, it can apply this correction data to compensate as necessary. Peripheral illumination correction is available for EF lenses. Chromatic aberration correction is available for EF lenses and broadcast lenses, including automatic correction for broadcast lenses compatible with L.C.A.C (A 46).

1 Attach the lens you want to use.

2 Open the desired correction screen. [Camera Setup] (v) > [Periph. Illum. Corr.] or [Chrom. Aberr. Corr.]

If correction data is not available, or if the broadcast lens attached is not compatible with L.C.A.C., the corresponding menu option will appear grayed out. In the case of an EF lens, visit your local Canon Web site and check if there is correction data available for the lens you are using. If so, download the necessary update package and upgrade the cameras firmware following the instructions supplied therein.

3 Select [On] and then press SET. As long as [Periph. Illum. Corr.] or [Chrom. Aberr. Corr.] is set to [On], the camera will automatically apply the

appropriate correction data.

NOTES

About in-camera lens correction data: The camera contains a register of correction data for compatible EF lenses that were available at the time the camera went on sale. Correction data for future lenses will be made available as part of the regular updates released for the cameras firmware. For more details, visit your local Canon Web site.

No peripheral illumination/chromatic aberration correction will be applied in the following cases: - When the appropriate correction data is not available for the EF lens attached. - When using non-Canon lenses. Even if the corresponding menu setting is available (not grayed out), setting

it to [Off] is recommended. When peripheral illumination correction is activated:

- Depending on the recording conditions, noise may appear in the periphery of the image as a result of the correction.

- The level of correction will be lower for lenses that cannot provide distance information. - The level of correction will be lower the higher the ISO speed/gain setting used. - Due to the difference in sensor size, when using EF-S lenses, peripheral illumination fall-off may be more

pronounced.

Preparing Recording Media

Recording

Recording Video This section explains the basics of recording clips*. Before making important recordings for the first time, make test recordings using the video configuration(s) you plan to use to check that the camera operates correctly. Should the camera fail to operate correctly, refer to Troubleshooting (A 219). * Clip refers to a single movie unit recorded with a single recording operation. Some clips can include custom picture settings

(A 131) and metadata (A 118).

Recording

1 Press the Q button to turn on the camera. The camera turns on in record standby mode. The access indicators of card slots with a card inserted will illuminate momentarily in red. Then, the access

indicator of the CFast card slot selected for recording will change to green.

2 Press the REC button to begin recording. Recording starts. The recording indicator on the HOME screen and at the bottom of the monitoring screen

changes from [STBY] to [ REC]. While recording on a CFast card, the tally lamp will illuminate in red. You can also perform this function remotely using Browser Remote on a connected network device (A 170,

174). For details about sub recordings refer to Simultaneous Sub Recordings (A 71).

3 Press the REC button to stop recording. The clip is recorded to the recording media and the camera returns to record standby mode. The tally lamp

will change back to green.

IMPORTANT

Observe the following precautions while an access indicator is illuminated in red. Failure to do so may result in permanent data loss. - Do not open the card slot cover of the card being accessed and do not remove the card. - Do not remove the power source or turn off the camera.

Be sure to save your recordings regularly (A 161), especially after making important recordings. Canon shall not be liable for any loss or corruption of data.

NOTES

If the power supplied to the camera is at or below the level set for the power level warning (A 199), the camera will not start recording.

If you record XF-AVC clips using the custom picture and metadata settings, those settings will be recorded with the XF-AVC clip. For more details, refer to Custom Picture Settings (A 131) and Using Metadata (A 118).

If the camera switches to the other CFast card while recording video due to the relay recording function (A 52), the two parts (before/after the switch) will be recorded as separate clips.

A single XF-AVC clip can be recorded continuously for up to 6 hours. At that point, a new clip will be created automatically and recording will continue on a separate clip.

You can use the [System Setup] > [Rec Operation Beep] setting to make the camera emit a sound when you start/stop recording.

If you set an assignable button to [Add $ Mark] or [Add % Mark] (A 127), you can press the button to add an $ mark or % mark to the last XF-AVC clip recorded.

When you use a commercially available lens adapter and the image on the screen is inverted, you can use the [System Setup] > [Scan Reverse Rec] > [Setting] setting to return the image to the correct

orientation.

Key lock: Locking the cameras controls To activate the key lock function, press and hold the C button. After the countdown that appears on the control display ends, all the physical controls (buttons, switches, etc.) will be locked except for the Q, REC and C buttons*. This is useful in preventing settings from being changed due to inadvertently pressing the cameras buttons and controls. Press and hold the C button again for about 3 seconds to reactivate the controls. Even when the cameras controls are locked, you can operate the camera using Browser Remote (A 170), an optional RC-V100 Remote Controller connected to the camera (A 123) or the controls on the lens. When an optional OU-700 Remote Operation Unit is connected to the camera, you can select whether its controls are locked along with those of the camera with the [System Setup] > [C Button] setting.

* You can also choose to lock the REC buttons using the [System Setup] > [REC Button] setting.

Slow & Fast Motion Recording

68

Slow & Fast Motion Recording The camera can record using a progressive frame rate (shooting frame rate) that is different from the playback frame rate. Recording a clip at a higher frame rate than the [Frame Rate] setting will result in a slow motion effect during playback. Conversely, a lower frame rate will result in a fast motion effect. In most cases, sound is not recorded when slow & fast motion recording is activated. However, sound will be recorded if the main recording format is set to [XF-AVC (CFast)] and the shooting frame rate is the same as the frame rate in the video configuration.

Simultaneous Sub Recordings

Simultaneous Sub Recordings You can record the same scene as the main recording also as a sub recording a secondary recording with a lower video configuration and smaller file sizes. For example, you can record XF-AVC clips on a CFast card or XF-AVC Proxy clips on the SD card while the camera records or outputs RAW data, or record XF-AVC Proxy clips on the SD card while using the CFast card for the main recording. The video configuration of XF-AVC (Intra) sub recordings on the CFast card can be selected but that of XF-AVC Proxy sub recordings on the SD card cannot be changed. XF-AVC Proxy clips have a video configuration of 2K with YCbCr 4:2:0, 8-bit color sampling and a bit rate of 24 Mbps or 35 Mbps*, which makes them very convenient for offline editing. Additionally, by specifying a LUT, you can obtain XF-AVC Proxy clips with different color space/gamma characteristics from those of the main recording. * Determined automatically depending on the video configuration of the main recording.

Video configuration of sub recording clips

1 The frame rate and audio recording settings will be the same as those used for the main recording. 2 Determined automatically for XF-AVC Proxy clips on the SD card. Selected with the [Rec/Media Setup] >

[Sub Rec (XF-AVC)] > [Resolution/Sampling] setting for XF-AVC clips on the CFast card. 3 Not available when the resolution of the main recording is 4512x1920. 4 qr Only when [Camera Setup] > [Sensor Mode] is set to an option other than [Full Frame].

1 Open the sub recording [Recording Media] submenu. [Rec/Media Setup] (3) > [Sub Rec (XF-AVC)] > [Recording Media]

2 Select [CFast] (XF-AVC clips) or [SD Card] (XF-AVC Proxy clips) and then press SET. [CFast] is only available when the main recording format is set to one of the RAW options.

Simultaneous Sub Recordings

72

For XF-AVC sub recordings ([CFast]) only:

3 To change the resolution of the XF-AVC clips, select [Resolution/Sampling] from the same submenu.

4 Select the desired option and then press SET.

For XF-AVC Proxy sub recordings ([SD Card]) only, when using one of the Canon Log gamma curves:

3 To apply a LUT to the XF-AVC Proxy clips, open the LUT selection screen. HOME screen: [COLOR] > [LUT] > [8 XF-AVC] Monitoring menu: From the same submenu select [Apply LUT].

4 Select the desired LUT and then press SET.

5 Press the REC button to start and stop recording. The sub recording clip will be recorded on the CFast or SD card simultaneously with the main recording.

IMPORTANT

Observe the following precautions while an access indicator is illuminated in red. Failure to do so may result in permanent data loss. - Do not open the card slot cover of the card being accessed and do not remove the card. - Do not remove the power source or turn off the camera.

NOTES

If the main recording stops during simultaneous recording, the sub recording will stop as well. Sub recording clips are not recorded during slow & fast motion recording. During relay recording, if the camera switches from recording on one CFast card to the other (main recording),

the recording of the XF-AVC Proxy clip on the SD card (sub recording) will be interrupted as well and continue as a separate XF-AVC Proxy clip.

When an SDHC card is used to record XF-AVC Proxy clips, the video (stream) file in an XF-AVC Proxy clip will be split approximately every 4 GB for clips with long recording times. Still, playback on the camera will be continuous.

Available LUT options may vary depending on the current [Gamma] and [Color Space] settings in the custom picture file (A 134). Also, when those settings are changed, the LUT will be removed ([Apply LUT] will be reset to [Off]).

When simultaneous sub recording is activated but no CFast card is inserted in the camera: - If the main recording format is set to [XF-AVC (CFast)], only the sub recording (XF-AVC Proxy) clips are

recorded on the SD card. - If the main recording format is set to [ProRes (CFast)], sub recording clips will not be recorded either.

Shutter Speed

74

Shutter Speed Set the shutter speed based on the recording conditions. For example, you may want to set slower shutter speeds in darker environments. The camera offers the following modes. You can also perform this function remotely using Browser Remote on a connected network device (A 170, 176).

[Speed]: Allows you to set the shutter speed (in fractions of a second). You can select the increment to use when adjusting the shutter speed between 1/3-stop and 1/4-stop increments.

[Angle]: You can set the shutter angle to determine the shutter speed.

[Clear Scan]: Set the frequency in order to record CRT computer monitors without black bands or flicker on the screen.

[Slow]: You can set slower shutter speeds to obtain brighter recordings in places with insufficient lighting. This mode is not available during slow & fast motion recording.

[Off]: The camera uses a standard shutter speed based on the frame rate.

Available shutter speeds The available shutter speeds vary depending on the system frequency and frame rate used.

6 Set the desired shutter speed. Camera menu: Turn the SELECT dial to select the desired value and then press SET. Monitoring menu: Set the shutter speed value using the direct setting mode (A 73). The selected shutter speed value appears on the HOME screen and at the top of the monitoring screen.

NOTES

Z[qr When recording under artificial light sources such as fluorescent, mercury or halogen lamps, the screen may flicker depending on the shutter speed. You may be able to avoid flicker by setting the shutter speed mode to [Speed] and the shutter speed to a value matching the frequency of the local electrical system: 1/25, 3/100, 1/50 or 1/100 for 50 Hz systems; 1/30, 1/40, 1/60 or 1/120 for 60 Hz systems. You can also set an angle value corresponding to the shutter speeds mentioned above.

Closing down the aperture when recording under bright conditions may cause the picture to appear soft or out of focus. To avoid the loss of sharpness due to diffraction, use a faster shutter speed, a denser ND filter (A 78) or open up the aperture.

Z[qr When the frame rate is set to 59.94i, 59.94P, 50.00i or 50.00P, if the shutter speed mode is set to [Off] and slow & fast motion is not activated, you can use the [Camera Setup] > [Flash Band Corr.] setting to have the camera detect partial flash banding on consecutive frames and correct this to minimize the number of unusable frames. The flash band correction will be deactivated in the following cases. - When the frame rate, resolution/color sampling or shutter speed mode is changed. - When slow & fast motion is activated. - When the camera is turned off or the PLAY button is pressed (switching to playback mode).

When the shutter speed mode is set to [Slow], bright red, green or blue dots may appear on the monitoring screen. In such case, use a faster shutter speed or select a lower ISO speed or gain value (A 76).

When using slow shutter speeds, if a very bright subject moves in the image or the brightness increases suddenly due to a flash or other strong light, some color may appear in the brightest areas of the image. Increasing the ISO speed/gain value may solve this.

When an optional RC-V100 Remote Controller is connected to the camera, you can change the shutter speed mode with the remote controllers SHUTTER SELECT button and the shutter speed value with the remote controllers SHUTTER / buttons.

Using Slow Shutter Mode When recording in dark surroundings, you can obtain a brighter picture by using the slow shutter mode. You can also use this mode when you wish to add certain effects to your recordings, such as blurring the background during panning shots or recording a moving subject with an afterimage trail. Image quality may not be as good as when using faster shutter speeds in brighter surroundings.

ISO Speed/Gain

76

ISO Speed/Gain Depending on the shooting conditions, you may want to adjust the brightness of the image. You can do so by changing the ISO speed or gain value to adjust the sensitivity of the sensor. You can also perform this function remotely using Browser Remote on a connected network device (A 170, 176). The minimum sensitivity needed to obtain the recommended dynamic range depends on the camera model and other settings.

Available ISO speed and gain settings

* Sensitivity settings that are outside the recommended range but can still be used by setting [ISO/GAIN] > [OPTIONS] > [Extended Range] to [On].

ND Filter

Using the ND filter allows you to open up the aperture to obtain a shallower depth of field even when recording in bright surroundings. You can also use the ND filter to avoid the soft focus caused by diffraction when using small apertures. By default, you can select one of 3 density levels (2 to 6 stops) and, if you enable the extended ND range, you can select one of 5 density levels (2 to 10 stops). You can also perform this function remotely using Browser Remote on a connected network device (A 170, 176).

Press the ND FILTER + or button to select the desired ND filter setting. Alternatively, using the HOME screen: [IRIS] > [ND +] and [ND ]. Or, you can press an assignable

button set to [ND +] or [ND ] (A 127). Repeatedly pressing the ND FILTER + button will change the ND filter setting in the following order:

[2 stops] [4 stops] [6 stops] [8 stops]* [10 stops]* ND filter off. (The ND FILTER button cycles through the settings in reverse order.)

The selected ND filter setting appears on the HOME screen and at the top of the monitoring screen. * Only when [IRIS] > [OPTIONS] > [Extended ND Range] is set to [On].

NOTES

Depending on the scene, the color may change when turning the ND filter on/off. Setting a custom white balance (A 87) may be effective in such case.

About the extended ND range: When you switch to or from a density level in the extended range (8 or 10 stops), you may notice one or both of the following circumstances. - The focus may shift, affecting also the indication on the lenss focus distance scale. - Depending on the lens, the camera may not be able to focus at infinity focus.

You can use the [System Setup] > [ND FILTER Button] setting to deactivate the ND FILTER buttons.

About changing the ND filter setting using the optional RC-V100 Remote Controller: - When the remote controller is connected to the camera, you can use the remote controllers ND button in

the same way as the cameras ND FILTER + button. - For settings between 2 and 8 stops, the corresponding ND filter indicator (1 to 4, respectively) will illuminate

in orange. When the ND filter is set to 10 stops, indicators 1 and 4 will both illuminate.

example, when the subject is lit by a spotlight.

Gamma Curve and Main Color Settings

84

Gamma Curve and Main Color Settings The basic color management with this camera is determined by the main settings of the custom picture file: gamma curve, color space and color matrix. You can select one of the preset color settings offered by the camera or set each setting individually. For details about the custom picture file and settings, refer to Custom Picture Settings (A 131). When the main recording format is set to RAW, a special gamma curve optimized for RAW video is used, regardless of these settings.

Preset Color Settings The camera offers the following preset color settings (combinations of gamma curve, color space and color matrix). You can also set each of the main settings individually or edit the custom picture file (A 131) to adjust to your preference every detailed aspect of the custom picture settings (A 134).

* [COLOR] > [CP MAIN] > [Preset], [Gamma], etc.

NOTES

About the logarithmic gamma curves (Canon Log settings) These gamma curves assume the need for post-production processing. They were designed to make the most of the imaging sensor characteristics in order to obtain impressive levels of dynamic range. - You can apply a LUT to video output from the cameras various terminals (A 155) to use gamma curve/

color space settings more suitable for viewing on the optional viewfinder or an external monitor screen. - There are also other LUTs available that can be applied for processing in post-production. For the latest

information on available LUTs, please visit your local Canon Web site.

White Balance

86

White Balance The camera uses an electronic white balance process to calibrate the picture and produce accurate colors under different lighting conditions. There are 4 methods of setting the white balance. You can also perform this function remotely using Browser Remote on a connected network device (A 170, 175).

Auto white balance (AWB): The camera automatically adjusts the white balance to the optimal level.

Custom white balance: You can use a gray card or white object with no pattern to calibrate the white balance and set it to one of two custom white balance positions, A or B. You can further adjust the color temperature value (K) and the color compensation (CC*) value.

Preset white balance: Set the white balance to (daylight) or (tungsten lamp). You can further adjust the color temperature value (K) and the color compensation (CC*) value.

User-set color temperature: The camera offers 5 white balance settings ( to ), each of which you can set independently to a color temperature between 2,000 K and 15,000 K and further adjust the color compensation (CC*) value. * The CC value adjusts the balance of the image along the green/magenta gradation.

NOTES

The [Color Matrix Tuning] and [White Balance] settings in the custom picture file (A 137) take precedence over the white balance set with these procedures.

You can use the [WB] > [OPTIONS] > [Shockless WB] setting to make the transition look smoother when you change the white balance settings.

You can use the [WB] > [OPTIONS] > [C. Temp. Increment] setting to set the units for the color temperature to [Mired] (in 5-mired increments) or [Kelvin] (in 100-kelvin increments). Even with the [Mired] option, the color temperature is converted to and displayed in kelvins. Note that changing the aforementioned setting may alter the white balance.

When an optional RC-V100 Remote Controller is connected to the camera, you can adjust the white balance with the remote controllers AWB button, A button, B button, PRESET button and button.

The color temperatures displayed on the control display and monitoring screen are approximate. Use them only as a reference.

Selecting the White Balance Mode/Setting 1 Open the [White Balance] screen.

HOME screen: [WB] You can also select the white balance mode/setting using the direct setting mode (A 73).

2 Turn the SELECT dial to select the desired white balance setting. The color temperature and CC value for the highlighted setting are displayed on the right side of the control

display and at the top of the monitoring screen. Alternatively, you can press an assignable button set to [ AWB], [ Set A], [ Set B], [ Daylight],

[ Tungsten] or one of the settings [ USER_01] to [ USER_05] (A 127). To register a custom white balance, adjust the color temperature/CC value or rename a user setting,

NOTES

With some EF lenses, you may be able to operate the focus ring even when the focus mode switch is set to AF.

If you operate the zoom after focusing, the focus on the subject may be lost. If you focus manually and then leave the camera with the power turned on, the focus on the subject may be

lost after a while. This possible slight shift in focus is a result of the internal temperature rising in the camera and lens. Check the focus before resuming shooting.

When adjusting the focus, be careful not to touch the front of the lens or moving parts on the lens except for the focus ring.

When an optional RC-V100 Remote Controller is connected to the camera, you can adjust the focus with the remote controllers FOCUS dial. At default settings, turn the dial right to focus farther and left to focus nearer.

To be able to adjust the focus using an accessory connected to a lens (itself connected to the camera using the 12-pin interface cable), you will need to change the [Camera Setup] > [Focus Control] setting to give priority to the lens.

Using the Focus Assistance Functions

In order to focus more accurately, you can use the following focus assistance functions: Dual Pixel Focus Guide (Zq only), an onscreen guide that shows you if the picture is in focus; peaking, which creates a clearer contrast by emphasizing the outlines of the subject; and magnification, which enlarges the image on the screen. You can use peaking and the focus guide or peaking and magnification simultaneously for greater effect.

Zq Dual Pixel Focus Guide The focus guide gives you an intuitive visual indication of the current focus distance and the direction and amount of adjustment necessary to bring the picture into full focus. When used in combination with face detection (A 96), the guide will focus on the vicinity of the eyes of the person detected as the main subject.

1 Activate the focus guide. Setup screen: [F. ASSIST.] > [GUIDE] (set it to [On]) Monitoring menu: [Assist. Functions] (A) > [Focus Guide] > [Activate] > [On] Alternatively, you can press an assignable button set to [Focus Guide] (A 127).

Synchronizing with an External Device

Synchronizing with an External Device Using Genlock synchronization, you can synchronize this cameras video signal to that of an external video device. Similarly, using an external time code signal, you can synchronize this cameras time code to the external signal. Using the external time code signal with multiple cameras allows you to set up a multi-camera recording. You can also output the time code signal from this camera to achieve the same result. If you output the time code from the SDI OUT terminals or MON. terminals to an editing device, the editor can create video with the same time code.

Connecting an External Device When synchronizing the camera using a reference video signal*, use the GENLOCK/SYNC OUT terminal. When synchronizing a time code signal, use the TIME CODE terminal. Be sure to set either terminal to input or output in advance. Connect the external device to the camera as shown in the following diagram. * As reference video signal (input signal) for Genlock synchronization, you can use an analog blackburst or tri-level HD signal. The

reference video output signal will be a tri-level HD signal.

Reference Video Signal Input (Genlock Synchronization) When a reference sync signal (tri-level HD signal or analog blackburst) is input through the GENLOCK/ SYNC OUT terminal, the phases of the cameras V and H sync will automatically be synchronized to it. The phase difference between the external Genlock signal and the camera is initially set to 0. The H phase can be adjusted within the range of approximately 0.4 H.

1 Open the GENLOCK/SYNC OUT terminals [Terminal Function] submenu. [System Setup] (B) > [GENLOCK/SYNC OUT] > [Terminal Function]

2 Select [Genlock Input] and then press SET.

3 From the same submenu select [Genlock Adjustment].

4 Set the desired H phase adjustment value using the keyboard screen (A 37). Camera menu only: Press [RESET] to reset the H phase adjustment to its previous value before the

adjustment.

NOTES

When a suitable Genlock signal is input, the Genlock synchronization stabilizes after approximately 10 seconds.

When a suitable Genlock signal is detected, the U icon will flash on the HOME screen and at the bottom right corner of the monitoring screen. When the camera locks on the external Genlock signal, the icon will stay on.

If the external Genlock signal is incorrect, the synchronization may not be stable. In such case, the recorded time code may be incorrect.

Time Code Signal Input An external SMPTE-standard LTC timing signal received from the TIME CODE IN/OUT terminal can be recorded as the time code. The user bit of the external timing signal can also be recorded with clips. Before connecting the device, set the TIME CODE IN/OUT terminal to input with the procedure below and make sure the time code running mode is set to [Free Run] (A 101).

When a suitable external time code signal is received, the cameras own time code will be synchronized to it and the synchronization will be maintained even if you disconnect the cable from the TIME CODE IN/OUT terminal.

107

Synchronizing with an External Device

When the camera locks on an external time code signal, [E] will appear next to the time code on the control display and at the bottom right corner of the monitoring screen.

If the external time code signal is incorrect or there is no input signal, the internal time code set in the camera will be recorded instead.

While a DF time code signal is being received, the external time codes drop-frame bit will be used. Performing any of the following actions while the cable is not connected will cause the synchronization to be

disrupted; the correct time code will be restored once you reconnect the cable. - Turning the camera off or pressing the PLAY button (switching to playback mode) - Changing the video configuration

Reference Video Signal Output You can output the cameras video signal as a reference sync signal (tri-level HD signal) to synchronize an external device to this camera. The reference video signal output will have the same frequency as the signal output from the SDI OUT terminals.

Recording a Single Analog Audio Input to Two Audio Channels

By default, when using analog audio sources (line in or microphone) connected to the INPUT terminals, each audio input is recorded to a separate audio channel (INPUT 1 to CH1 and INPUT 2 to CH2). If necessary (for example, as an audio backup recording), you can record the same analog audio source connected to the INPUT 1 terminal to both audio channels, CH1 and CH2. In that case, you can adjust the audio recording levels of each channel independently of each other.

1 Open the [CH2 Input] submenu. Setup screen: [AUDIO] > [OPTIONS] > [Audio Input] > [CH2 Input] Monitoring menu: [Audio Setup] () > [Audio Input] > [CH2 Input]

2 Select the desired option and then press SET.

Options [INPUT 2]: Records audio to each channel separately. Analog audio input into INPUT 1 is recorded to CH1,

while audio input into INPUT 2 is recorded to CH2. [INPUT 1]: Analog audio input into INPUT 1 is recorded to both channels. Audio input into INPUT 2 will not

be recorded.

Adjusting the Audio Recording Level When a channel is set to an analog audio input, you can select the automatic audio recording level adjustment or adjust the audio level manually, independently for each channel. When a channel is set to a digital audio source or the built-in monaural microphone, the audio recording level cannot be adjusted.

Connecting to an External Monitor or Recorder

152

Connecting to an External Monitor or Recorder When you connect the camera to an external device, be it a monitor (to monitor the recording or for playback) or an external video recorder (for recording), use the terminal on the camera that matches the one you wish to use on the external device. Then, check the video signal output configuration (A 149).

Connection Diagram We recommend that you power the camera from a power outlet using an AC adapter.

Using the SDI OUT Terminals The digital signal that is output from the SDI OUT terminals includes the video signal, audio signal (4 channels*), time code, metadata and clip file name information**. You can connect an external video recorder to the cameras SDI OUT terminals to record 4K or 2K video. For details about how to use and configure external recorders or displays, refer to the instruction manual of the external device used. * During RAW output, 2-channel 16-bit audio will be output instead (transmitted as 20 bits). You can select which audio channels

to output (A 160). ** If the main recording format is set to [ProRes (CFast)] but no CFast card is inserted in the camera, clip file name information will

not be output.

1 To output RAW video, set the main recording format to [RAW (SDI OUT)] (A 65). Video output from the SDI OUT terminals will be activated automatically so step 2 is not necessary.

2 When the main recording format is not [RAW (SDI OUT)], activate the SDI OUT terminals. [System Setup] (B) > [Term. Output Setup] > [SDI OUT Output] > [On]

If you have no intention to use the SDI OUT terminals, select [Off] instead.

3 If necessary, select the 3G-SDI mapping level for the output signal (step 2, A 153).

Connecting to an External Monitor or Recorder

NOTES

Depending on the external recorder, you may not be able to record at the desired video configuration. After you connect the camera to the external recorder, make a test recording first to check that audio and

video are recorded correctly on the external recorder. You can set [Rec/Media Setup] > [Rec Command] to [On] to use the cameras REC button to

control also the recording operation of an external recorder connected to the SDI OUT terminals and MON. terminals.

About RAW output: - A special gamma curve optimized for RAW video is applied to the video output. - During RAW output, the audio output signal will be 2-channel linear PCM audio (16 bit). We recommend

using instead the 4-channel linear PCM audio (24 bit) that is recorded in the camera with sub recording (XF-AVC Intra) clips.

- The output signal mapping will be set to Level B. When 2K RGB 4:4:4 video is being output from the SDI OUT terminals, video output from the MON. terminals

will be a 2K YCbCr video signal.

Using the MON. Terminals The digital signal that is output from the MON. terminals includes the video signal, audio signal (4 channels), time code, metadata and clip file name information*. Additionally, you can output also the cameras onscreen displays and various assistance displays (onscreen markers, zebra patterns, peaking, magnification, false color display, black & white image). * If the main recording format is set to [ProRes (CFast)] but no CFast card is inserted in the camera, clip file name information will

not be output.

1 Activate the MON. terminals and select the desired output mode. [System Setup] (B) > [Term. Output Setup] > [MON. Output] > [1920x1080] or

[2048x1080/1920x1080] If you have no intention to use the MON. terminals, select [Off] instead.

2 If you selected 2K output, you can select the 3G-SDI mapping level for the output signal. From the same submenu: [3G-SDI Mapping] > [Level A] or [Level B] The options correspond to a video output signal compliant with Level A or Level B of the SMPTE ST 425

standard.

Options [2048x1080/1920x1080]: Outputs video with a resolution of 2048x1080 or 1920x1080. [1920x1080]: Outputs 1920x1080 (Full HD) video. When the horizontal resolution of the main recording video

configuration is 4096 or 2048, the sides of the image will be displayed letterboxed.

NOTES

You can set [Rec/Media Setup] > [Rec Command] to [On] to use the cameras REC button to control also the recording operation of an external recorder connected to the SDI OUT terminals and MON. terminals. However, this is not available from the MON. terminals when the sensor mode is set to [Full Frame] and the frame rate is set to 59.94P or 50.00P.

Using the HDMI OUT Terminal The HDMITM OUT terminal also offers a digital connection and outputs both a video and audio signal. You can select the maximum resolution of the video signal to output up to 4K video. Additionally, you can output also the cameras onscreen displays and various assistance displays (onscreen markers, zebra patterns, peaking, magnification, false color display, black & white image). The audio output signal will be 2-channel linear PCM audio (16-bit, 48 kHz sampling). You can select which audio channels to output (A 160).

1 Select the HDMI OUT terminals maximum resolution. [System Setup] (B) > [Term. Output Setup] > [HDMI Max Res.] > [4096x2160/

3840x2160] or [1920x1080]

NOTES

When [System Setup] > [Term. Output Setup] > [MON. Output] is set to [Off], the HDMI OUT output will change depending on the capabilities of the monitor used. When [MON. Output] is set to a setting other than [Off], if the monitor connected to the terminal does not support the video output configuration, video output from the HDMI OUT terminal will be turned off.

The HDMI OUT terminal is for output only. Do not connect the camera to another devices output terminal using the HDMI OUT terminal as this will cause a malfunction.

Correct operation cannot be guaranteed when connecting the camera to DVI monitors. Video may not be output correctly depending on the monitor. In such case, use another terminal.

Superimposing Onscreen Displays on Video Outputs You can choose to output the cameras onscreen displays along with the video output from the VIDEO terminal (optional viewfinder), MON. terminals or HDMI OUT terminal to show the cameras onscreen displays on monitoring devices connected to the corresponding terminals. This will not affect your recordings or video output from the SDI OUT terminals.

Connecting to a Wi-Fi Network Attaching the Optional Wireless File Transmitter Turn off the camera and attach the optional WFT-E6 or WFT-E8 Wireless File Transmitter (hereafter, simply wireless transmitter) to the cameras system extension terminal.

1 Press the Q button to turn off the camera.

2 Attach the optional wireless transmitter to the cameras system extension terminal.

3 Fasten the wireless transmitters locking screw.

4 Attach the supplied extension unit attachment bracket to secure the wireless transmitter.

Once the wireless transmitter is correctly attached to the camera, you can connect the camera in Infrastructure mode, using an access point (wireless router etc.), or in Camera Access Point mode, directly to a network device. The type of connection you can use, depends on the network function you wish to use (A 163). For an Infrastructure connection, the camera offers 3 ways to configure an access point and the method you use will depend on the type and specifications of the access point and network you plan to use.

Camera Access Point: When shooting in a location where there are no access points available, the camera can serve as a wireless access point*. Wi-Fi enabled devices will be able to connect to the camera directly. * Limited only to the connection between the camera and supported Wi-Fi enabled devices. The functionality is not the same as

that of commercially available access points.

Infrastructure connection: WPS (button): If your wireless router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), setup will be easy and require minimal configuring and no passwords. To check if your wireless router has a WPS button and for details about how to activate the Wi-Fi protected setup, refer to the instruction manual of your wireless router.

WPS (PIN code): Even if your wireless router does not have a dedicated WPS button, it may support WPS using a PIN code instead. For setup using a PIN code, you will need to know in advance how to activate the wireless routers WPS function. For details refer to the instruction manual of your wireless router.

Searching for Access Points: If your access point does not support the WPS function or you cannot activate it, you can have the camera search for access points in the area.

IMPORTANT

Depending on the country/region of use, some restrictions on outdoor use or camera access point connections may apply when operating the IEEE802.11a/n wireless standard in the 5 GHz band. For details see Areas of Use and Restrictions (a separate leaflet supplied with the wireless transmitter).

IP Streaming

182

IP Streaming When the main recording mode is set to [XF-AVC (CFast)], after you connect the camera to a network (Wi-Fi (Infrastructure) or wired (Ethernet)), you can stream the cameras live video and audio* over IP to a compatible IP video decoder** connected to the network. You can use IP streaming for live broadcasts or to send a news flash report from a location with poor network connectivity, since the configuration of streamed video is lower (so the data to be transferred is smaller) than that of recorded clips.

* Only 2 channels. When recording main recording clips with 4 audio channels, you can select which two channels to stream over IP.

** This can be a dedicated video transfer device or decoder software on a computer. For details about compatible decoders, please visit your local Canon Web site.

Configuration of video streamed over IP

* Only when [Camera Setup] > [Sensor Mode] is set to [Super 35mm] or [Super 35mm (Cropped)].

IP Streaming

Enter the port number using the keyboard screen (A 37). Setup screen only: Press [RESET] to reset the port number to [5000]. Using the default port is recommended.

Options [UDP]: This protocol prioritizes transfer speeds but does not guarantee the reliability/integrity of the

data. Lost or delayed IP packets are ignored. [RTP]: Standard protocol for video/audio broadcasts over the Internet. Lost or delayed IP packets are

ignored. [RTP+FEC]: This setting uses the RTP protocol and adds a layer of FEC error correction so the receiving

side* can recover lost or delayed IP packets. This combination is more common for broadcasts over Wi-Fi networks.

[RTSP+RTP]: This setting uses the RTSP (real time streaming) protocol to control the streaming server (camera) in real time and the RTP protocol for the broadcast over IP. With the RTSP protocol, the receiver can control when to start and stop the broadcast.

* A decoder compatible with FEC error correction is required.

CDX-36150 Recorders LED status

You can press the button inside the ring to change the LEDs brightness between 3 levels or to turn it off completely. Even when you turn it off, the LED will illuminate in red if a low power warning is triggered.

Initializing a Capture Drive For details about the recording media and how to insert a Capture Drive 2.0 into the recorder, refer to the CDX- 36150 Recorders Getting Started Guide. The first time you use a Capture Drive with the camera, initialize it first using the cameras menu.

1 Set the main recording format to [RAW ( Capture Drive)] or [ProRes ( Capture Drive)] (A 65). [Rec/Media Setup] (3) > [Main Rec Format] > [RAW ( Capture Drive)] or [ProRes ( Capture Drive)]

2 Initialize the Capture Drive in the recorder. [Rec/Media Setup] (3) > [Initialize Media] > [ Capture Drive]

3 Camera menu: Press both [FORMAT] buttons simultaneously. Monitoring menu: Select [OK] and then press SET. Refer also to Initializing Recording Media (A 51). The Capture Drive will be initialized for use with the recording format selected in step 1.

IMPORTANT

Initializing a Capture Drive will permanently erase all the data it contains. Lost data cannot be recovered. Make sure you save important recordings in advance.

Observe the following precautions while the camera is accessing the Capture Drive in the recorder. Failure to do so may result in permanent data loss. - Do not turn off the camera or recorder. Do not remove/disconnect the battery or other power source. - Do not open the recorders Capture Drive bay.

NOTES

You can check the capacity and remaining available recording time of the Capture Drive on the [MEDIA] screen.

A Capture Drive cannot be used to record clips in different recording formats (RAW and ProRes). When you initialize a Capture Drive with the main recording format set to [ProRes ( Capture Drive)], the

recordable space will be reduced to approximately half of the Capture Drives nominal capacity to ensure a highly reliable format thanks to the use of multi-stream processing.

2 If necessary, select the desired sensor mode and system frequency (A 65).

3 Select the desired frame rate (A 65). To use slow & fast motion recording, activate it and select also the desired shooting frame rate (A 68).

NOTES

When the main recording format is set to [RAW ( Capture Drive)], a special gamma curve, optimized for RAW video, will be used.

Sub Recording on a CFast or SD Card While using the CDX-36150 Recorder to record RAW data as the main recording, you can simultaneously have the camera record a sub recording in XF-AVC format on a CFast card (XF-AVC Intra) or SD card (XF-AVC Proxy). For details, refer to Simultaneous Sub Recordings (A 71).

NOTES

When the main recording format is set to [RAW ( Capture Drive)] or [ProRes ( Capture Drive)] and the CDX-36150 Recorder is not docked with the camera, clips will not be recorded on the CFast card or SD card even if simultaneous sub recording was activated. For this reason, even when the time code running mode is set to [Regen.], the last time code recorded on the CFast or SD card will not be read.

Z[ When the resolution of the main recording format is 4512x2376 or 4272x2376, you can display an onscreen marker that indicates the portion of the image being recorded as the sub recording. For details, refer to Displaying Onscreen Markers (A 98).

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting If you have a problem with your camera, refer to this section. Consult your dealer or a Canon Service Center if the problem persists.

Power source The camera will not turn on or it turns off by itself.

- The input voltage of the battery or power source connected to the DC IN 12V terminal is too low. Check the power source.

- Excess current to the lens has been detected. Remove the lens. Clean the contacts on the lens mount and lens and reattach the lens.

Recording The cameras controls are not responsive/disabled.

- When the key lock function is activated, all buttons (or all buttons with the exception of some REC buttons) are locked and cannot be operated. Press and hold the C button for about 4 seconds to turn off the key lock function. You can change which controls are locked with the [System Setup] > [Key Lock] setting.

The ND FILTER buttons do not respond. - The ND FILTER buttons have been disabled. Set [System Setup] > [ND FILTER Button] to [Enable].

Pressing the REC button will not start recording. - The CFast card is full or it already contains the maximum number of clips (999 clips). Delete some clips (A 147) or

save your clips (A 161) and initialize the CFast card (A 51) to free some space. Alternatively, replace the CFast card. - The REC button that was used may be disabled. Change the current settings in the [System Setup] > [REC

Button] submenu to enable the use of the desired REC buttons. - The camera cannot start recording when input power supplied to the camera reaches the level set for the power level

warning (A 199). Check the power source. - You may not be able to start or stop recording while controls on the optional RC-V100 Remote Controller are being

operated. Stop using the remote controller and then press the REC button.

The point where the REC button was pressed does not match the beginning/end of the recording. - There is a slight interval between pressing the REC button and the actual start/end of recording. This is not a

malfunction.

The camera will not focus. - The camera may not be able to focus on certain subjects using autofocus. Focus manually (A 90). - When the AF mode is set to AF-boosted MF, start focusing manually until the AF frame changes to white (automatic

adjustment range). - The optional viewfinder is not adjusted. Use the dioptric adjustment ring to make the proper adjustment (A 42). - The lens is dirty. Clean the lens with a soft lens-cleaning cloth.

Z[qr When a subject flits across in front of the lens, the image appears slightly bent. - This is a phenomenon typical of CMOS image sensors. When a subject crosses very quickly in front of the camera, the

image may seem slightly warped. This is not a malfunction.

Bright red, green or blue dots appear on the monitoring screen. - Try adjusting the black balance (A 54). The cameras CMOS sensor is a delicate piece of precision engineering. Direct

exposure of the sensor to ion rays or other types of cosmic radiation may affect it and this may rarely appear as bright colored dots on the screen. This is the nature of CMOS image sensors and does not represent a malfunction.

- The effects of the damage may be more noticeable when the camera is used in places subject to high temperatures, when a high ISO speed or gain level is used and when slow shutter speeds are used.

The camera cannot record properly. - This may occur as recordings are made and deleted over time. Save your clips (A 161) and initialize the recording media

(A 51), using the [Complete] option for SD cards.

After using the camera for a long time, it becomes hot. - The camera may become hot after using it continuously for long periods of time; this is not a malfunction. If the

camera becomes unusually hot or it becomes hot after using it only for a short while, it may indicate a problem with the camera. Consult a Canon Service Center.

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

Network Functions

Check This First

Cannot connect with an access point. - If the network function icon does not turn white, turn off the camera, remove the wireless file transmitter and attach it

again (A 164). - Check that the settings on the network device the camera is trying to connect with are correct. - Password information is not saved with the camera settings saved on an SD card. When you load onto the camera

settings from an SD card, all the passwords in the network-related settings are reset. Set up the network-related settings as necessary (A 169).

- The wireless signal is not strong enough or there are other devices in the vicinity interfering with the wireless signal. Refer to Precautions Regarding Wi-Fi Networks (A 224).

Cannot establish a Camera Access Point connection with a network device. - If the network function icon does not turn white, turn off the camera, remove the wireless file transmitter and attach it

again (A 164). - When you reset all the camera settings, all network settings are lost as well. Set up the Camera Access Point settings

again (A 165). - The wireless signal is not strong enough or there are other devices in the vicinity interfering with the wireless signal.

Refer to Precautions Regarding Wi-Fi Networks (A 224).

Cannot connect with a wired (Ethernet) network. - Use a category 5e or better shielded twisted pair (STP) Ethernet cable. - Try replacing the Ethernet cable. - When you reset all the camera settings, all network settings are lost as well. Connect using the default settings or set

up the network settings again (A 169). - Check that the network device to which the camera is connected is on and functioning properly. To use 1000BASE-T

connection speeds, make sure to use network devices compatible with Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T).

The (Ethernet) access indicator illuminates in red and then turns off. - The Ethernet cable was disconnected or the camera cannot communicate with the connected network device. Check

the Ethernet connection and the connected network device.

The Browser Remote application will not start on the Web browser. - Make sure [NETWORK] > [Browser Remote] > [ACTIVATE] is set to [On]. - The URL entered into the Web browsers address bar is incorrect. Be sure to use the URL exactly as it appears in the

[Browser Remote] screen on the control display (A 171).

The Browser Remote screen is not displayed correctly on the Web browser. - The device, operating system or Web browser used may not be supported. For the latest information about supported

systems, visit your local Canon Web site. - Enable JavaScript and cookies in your Web browsers settings. For details, refer to the help modules or online

documentation of the Web browser used.

Cannot activate the IP streaming function. - The main recording format is not set to [XF-AVC (CFast)]. Set it to [XF-AVC (CFast)] (A 65). - The system frequency is set to 24.00 Hz. Set it to 59.94 Hz or 50.00 Hz (A 65). - Slow & fast motion recording is activated. Turn it off (A 68). - If the IP streamings [Protocol] is set to an option other than [RTSP+RTP], be sure to configure the receivers IP address

with the [Dest. IP Address] setting.

Are the access point (wireless router), camera, computer or other network devices all turned on? Is the network working and correctly configured? Are all network devices correctly connected to the same network as the camera? When using Wi-Fi networks:

- Is the wireless file transmitter correctly attached to the cameras system extension terminal (A 164)? - Are there any obstructions between the camera and the access point or between the network device

used and the access point?

Troubleshooting

224

Precautions Regarding Wi-Fi Networks When using a Wi-Fi network, try the following corrective actions if the transmission rate drops, the connection is lost, or other problems occur.

Positioning a network device (access point, mobile device, etc.) - When using a Wi-Fi network indoors, place the network device in the same room as the camera. - Place the network device in an open, unobstructed location, where people or objects do not come between it and the

camera. - Place the network device as close as possible to the camera. Change the height or facing of the network device, as

necessary.

Nearby electronic devices - If the transmission rate over a Wi-Fi network drops because of interference from the following electronic devices,

switching to the 5 GHz band or to a different channel may solve the problem. - Wi-Fi networks using the IEEE 802.11b/g/n protocol operate in the 2.4 GHz band. For this reason, the transmission

rate may drop if there are nearby microwave ovens, cordless telephones, microphones, or similar devices operating on the same frequency band.

- If another access point operating on the same frequency band as the transmitter of the WFT-E6 or WFT-E8 connected to the camera is used nearby, the transmission rate may drop.

Using multiple cameras/wireless transmitters/access points - Check that there are no IP address conflicts among the devices connected to the same network. - If multiple C700 / C700 PL/ C700 GS PL / C700 FF / C700 FF PL cameras are connected to a single access point,

connection speeds may be reduced. - To reduce radio wave interference when there are multiple access points using IEEE 802.11b/g or IEEE 802.11n (in the

2.4 GHz band), leave a gap of four channels between each wireless access point. For example, use channels 1, 6, and 11, channels 2, 7, and 12, or channels 3, 8, and 13. If you can use IEEE 802.11a/n (in the 5 GHz band), switch to IEEE 802.11a/n and specify a different channel.

List of Messages Refer to this section if a message appears in the [LIVE] screen on the control display or on the monitoring screen. The messages in this section appear in alphabetical order. Note that for some messages, an indication of the recording media involved (CFast A, CFast B, 8, Capture Drive, or a combination thereof) may appear above the message itself. For error messages related to network functions, refer to Network Functions (A 227).
