Man I have been looking for to it! Sadly, I had to send my C70 in for repair literally a week after this video so I’m still waiting to get it back haha.
To be honest it's just a better and more complete pro version of komodo. In my personal experience, c70 can basically do everything komodo can with way better user experience and operation interface, no need to rig up anything, you already got all you need for most of the pro work that already packed inside c70 which you need to spend a lot more extra cash and add more weight and size and complx with komodo. And let's talk about the DGO sensor, my gosh, the low noise in dark is just belows my fx6 fx3 away. Komodo is not even at the same level when talk about noise. And if people asking about colour, raw, etc, Come on, please dont live in 5~8 years ago, if you use pro equipment, you should be able to match any camera to another camera easily, maybe not 100% , but really acceptable. And the log is powerful enough, if you really mess up your shooting that beyond the capability of clog2, then the image probably wont look good at red raw anyways .
Well said! It’s nice to hear the comparison from your FX6 and FX3 because I have yet to try them out side by side. I’m very excited for the newest firmware update coming next month. They made this camera even better… again!
I bought my c70 as a support/gimbal cam - and my only regret has been the lack of Sony level auto focus on the run and gun/solo projects. That said, the firmware updates Canon has done for the c70 is unheard of - across the board probably the best result from the pandemic/chip shortages! Very interested in what they’ll do for a mk2 now, and after this next update there’s not much left on the table for this price point. You can fix almost every focus issue by investing in Ronin’s LiDAR RS system by the way, for solo work its amazing, accurate, and opens up a ton of manual lens possibilities!
Unless I’m misunderstanding what you’re needing, you can output a clean feed over HDMI while your internal/LCD still displays all your info. In Menu> Monitoring Setup> OSD Output: HDMI - turn it off. I also have this mapped to button #6 (zebra) so that I can quickly toggle on/off the OSD over HDMI.
I was definitely vague and didn’t expand on the specific situation I meant. That is what I usually do! But sometimes I have the camera rigged where I don’t use the internal LCD and only use an external so I like to have my OSD on it. Thanks for the tip on mapping a button for it! That’s going to come in handy.
Just bought this in 2024, still the best option in the price range IMO. The obsession with full frame and 8k is bizarre. The new Alexa which is now being used on tons of hollywood productions is S35 with a 4k sensor.
If you love the C70, you will love the Red Komodo X with the Electronic ND attachment and XLR attachment apart from the autofocus. But it's different amount of money but an upgrade indeed.
Had a glance at some of those concert clips in "Low Light" and they look fantastic! I've been looking around online and a general consensus seems to be to shoot in CLOG3 as it doesn't have as much highlight detail retention and therefor more forgiving shadow details. Could you maybe comment on your lowlight shooting set-up in CLOG2? Had had some troubles with it on a previous project and just curious to see how you get your results! :) thanks
Very helpful. Thanks for creating it. If you don’t mind a novice question, does the lack of a clean feed mean that I can’t record to external SSDs? My current c100 mark 2 allows this. Thanks.
18-35 & 50-100 are my go to lenses whenever I’m using MF because they do tend to struggle more! Especially when they are wide open. I also use the sigma 24-70 2.8 a lot for run n gun
@@JordanPulmano thanks for taking the time to respond, really appreciate it. You think it’s worth picking up a 24-70? Also, not sure if you’ve seen, but C70 is getting eye tracking start of December, again reaffirming your point of continually improving.
I dig the 24-105 f4 with the speed booster. Shot several higher end client spots with that setup and it was cheap to start out with! Recently I’ve been switching out to the DZO’s 35 though, it’s changed how I shoot for the better :)
Just stumbled across this video! I film weddings and even with the firmware update I still struggle with autofocus once I go past 1600 ISO. Do you have any recommendations to combat that setting wise? Is it something you think could be fixed with a lower aperture lens?
It’s a bit of a balancing act. A faster lens will let in light but the wider your lens opened up to, the shorter your focus plane will be so focusing is actually more difficult. The c70 AF is awesome for what it is but it definitely can’t keep up with the mirrorless cameras. Do you use eye autofocus? I’ve found that to be way better!
@@JordanPulmano Yes I do use the eye detecting autofocus! I'm gonna keep working with it and see what I can do, but honestly sometimes I find the autofocus on my EOS R to be better in lowlight, but then i'm battling noise. Can't have everything I guess! Thanks for the help!
What features do you suppose will be part of the successor to the C70? When do you think it might come out? I’ve largely got the C70 and R5 C in mind for this
My guess is a C70 Mark ii will have CFexpress slots, possibly full frame or two camera versions with one being full frame. I’m not sure what else they would add!
When comparing my C70 with my R5C the picture looks really soft (I always end up putting some sharpness on the footage in post) But then again.. R5C is 8K downsampled so 4k 😅 The fact that it is a crop sensor bothers me. Thats the reason why i bought that crazy expensive speedbooster.. but then you can’t get the sharper RF lenses that potential would help on the softer image.. 😅 Anyways.. great video 🤟 and i agree that it is a great camera.
I’m not sure because I’ve only used it once during the day. I’d imagine it is a little better being that it is a full frame sensor so naturally that will be helpful. However, the dual gain output sensor on the C70 is great for low light situations! I definitely plan to test them side by side in the future
Haha yes this was shot before the eye autofocus release. I had the focus set to my chest (grabbing the logo on my shirt) and with my lens wide open the focus plane was tiny. When you run through 45 minutes of shooting talking head for a RUclips video, sometimes the juice isn’t worth the squeeze and I’d rather put the info out there even if it was a little soft 😂
It’s a Super35 sensor which is much more common in the cinema camera world. I’ve spent most of my career shooting S35 (aside from full frame mirrorless cameras) so it’s nothing out of the ordinary for me!
@@JordanPulmano haha 😆 your style of film making can hardly be called run and gun, unless you started working for a news station or something. I would probably call it action style shooting, or quick and dirty film making or whatever.
The latest Canon C70 update on Dec. 7th now allows eye detection AF. Keeps getting better and better.

It’s got eye detection autofocus now! Canon has been handling up with the C70 firmware updates.

This is a good camera. Someone is selling one and I wanted to learn more about it. Thanks for sharing.
Great video dude! Love hearing your insights on camera gear
Thank you for watching man!! I have a blast making these.
If you love the C70, you will love the Red Komodo X with the Electronic ND attachment and XLR attachment apart from the autofocus. But it's different amount of money but an upgrade indeed.
It has eye autofocus now, you are correct this camera just keeps getting better and better.
I can’t wait to try it!! My C70 has been at canon for repair for the past few weeks sadly so I haven’t had a chance to test it out!…
Great video! 🔥 For the 6 months I got to use that camera this year were amazing. Kinda miss canon 🤔
Thanks for taking time to check it out man! Canon will always have my heart.
Great video! Where did you get your film burn/light leak overlays
Those are from my friends digital store! CreatorFX. He has a ton of great packs
Ditto. Huge C70 fan.
Makes me want one, great video!

C70 op here and I totally second this.
What lenses do u prefer? What in lowlight? Do u use rf or ef lenses with speed booster?
Thanks for this video. 😀👍
How do you store or archive footage?🧐
Very helpful. Thanks for creating it.
If you don’t mind a novice question, does the lack of a clean feed mean that I can’t record to external SSDs? My current c100 mark 2 allows this. Thanks.
Can you use focus magnification during recording?
Yes you can! Atleast on the camera monitor. I don’t know about external
Recent firmware update includes focus for face and eye detection.
Yeah I just got off a shoot using it for the first time and holy crap is it awesome! Also that new intraframe option is so nice
Appreciate this. Subscribed!
Thank you so much! Glad you liked the video
What’s your favourite lens recommendations? I have a sigma 18-35, but it misses focus a fair amount.

We love the C70
Interesting video. What do you think about the R5c?
I’ve been really wanting to try it out! I think it would be a killer sidekick to the C70.
@@JordanPulmano one thing miss on it, Nd Filter and Battery issues☹️
Aaaaand a couple days later Canon adds eye focus! 🙌
Hahaha yes. I’m very excited for all of the new upgrades!
When comparing my C70 with my R5C the picture looks really soft (I always end up putting some sharpness on the footage in post)
But then again.. R5C is 8K downsampled so 4k 😅

is c70 better then fx6 inn low light or not ??? please reply

whats up with the focus ?? he seems to be not be in focus

haha,.. no bro you are good, great channel good videos,. just pulling your leg bro..... but need to be careful next time around... @@JordanPulmano

It’s a Super35 sensor which is much more common in the cinema camera world. I’ve spent most of my career shooting S35 (aside from full frame mirrorless cameras) so it’s nothing out of the ordinary for me!
I would love a FF option in the mark ii though! That would be awesome
@@JordanPulmano Okay understood, your stuff is great. Would you maybe recommend a speed booster?
☺️
I suspect that you really like this camera 😅
What gave it away? 😂 thanks for watching dude
FIRST 🔥
Love your videos, but say run and gun one more time...
That’s it, next video is going to be “my favorite Run n Gun Hollywood films” but it’s just me reviewing Cloverfield.
@@JordanPulmano haha 😆 your style of film making can hardly be called run and gun, unless you started working for a news station or something. I would probably call it action style shooting, or quick and dirty film making or whatever.
