Test of the Canon EOS C70 RAW

Canon's Cinema RAW Light format alleviates this problem, offering a significant reduction in file size without sacrificing image quality or grading and compositing headroom. Also featured on the Canon EOS C500 Mark II, Canon EOS C300 Mark III, Canon EOS R5 C and Canon EOS C70, the Cinema RAW Light format allows filmmakers to realise the widest dynamic range of the camera's sensor in a file that's approximately a third to a fifth of the size of a standard Cinema RAW file.
The Canon EOS C70 was introduced a while back, in September 2020 to be precise, and over the years it has seen numerous firmware updates, it has been approved by Netflix, and of course it has received the FilmConvert treatment. In March 2022, it got another major firmware upgrade that now allows the EOS C70 to record Cinema RAW Light LT internally. Now it’s time to put this little film camera through our lab test! So let’s take a look.
