Just got the c100! I don't NEED 4k but i do need the battery life, built in ND Filters, small file size, and overall ergo-dynamic and aesthetics of this c100!
Good points! I'm about to buy a C100 M2 even in 2019!I. I've used one at work for several years now and it's just a hard camera NOT to like even without 4K. Definitely showing it's age, but the footage grades remarkably well, insane battery life, is such a small package, and terrific image quality among other points. One thing you didn't mention is reliability. Our C100 has been a workhorse - it just works with consistent reliably .
Nice!! The best arguments for C100 - strong battery life, good file sizes. Why would you want to fumble with batteries and cards in an unpredictable event like weddings!? So yeah i agree, very good for LONG & UNPREDICTABLE EVENTS. Otherwise, for controlled situations , go for something else.
Best video on the C100 so far, trust me I have watched the all lol! I have literally just ordered my C100 mk1 so I have been doing a lot of RUclips research. You have confirmed in my mind that I have made the best decision :) I am using it for an indie film and starting a videography business. Defo worth a subscribe :) Keep up the great work! Cheers Scott, UK
Kishere Film I’ve been doin the same as well “researching “ and I’m also starting a production company and I’m shooting a small film among many other projects as well... can’t stop hearing good things about this oldie but a goodie
Can you believe BH got the C100 MKI on sale for $1299 the DPAF version! That’s a steal and after watching your video the decision is done. Thanks for all the info
Brand new C100 mark I is $1999. That is same price as gh5. Which one would you choose. I like the ND filter from c100. But the ibis from gh5 is a major feature. You can shoot b roll handheld so easy. And c100 does not have slow motion. If I am shoot indie film, I think I will choose c100. Wedding, causal video, youtuber, I will choose gh5.
I am buying c100 mk2 as my 1st cam and going to use my sony 6500 as 2nd gimbal cam. Dont like sony colors, ergonomic / menu..is just not there. I done some research and found EOSHD Pro Color profile , which helps match them 2 cams. Any experiences on this? What do you think about lenses for shooting wedding video for c100. I am buying them two for a start: sigma 18-35, 1.8 art canon 24-70 f4 and I will invest in telephoto like 200mm in some time later. What your thoughs guys?
Halfway through 2018..and even though I've added a GH5S to my lineup, I still use 2 C100s for weddings (although I have to upgrade one of them to a Mark II because Adobe stopped supporting Dolby). You're spot on.
i can get 2:56 to be exact 4mins less, no big deal AVCHD is not the preferred video codec, at 24mb. GH5 allows options for codecs and data rates and color space.
Hello there, thanks so much for putting your effort together to publish this useful video on You Tube. I do own the mark ii and I am not very happy with the image quality. Basically, I am seeking advice from you to guide me through on how to get best out of this camera since I know for the fact that it works very well. Having said this, I am not sure the best settings for the camera, in particular wedding and live event. I would really appreciate if you kindly share your supportive guidance with me so I can follow your recommended settings. Thanks in advance...
Hey there! I definitely plan on making a video detailing this in the future, but here are a few quick tips to get started. I always shoot CP-8 (Wide DR) as I find it gives the best dynamic range and is still easy to edit in post. Always try to keep your ISO at 850 as it's the native ISO for the camera and will give you the cleanest image with the best dynamic range. Other than that make sure to use your waveform monitor to nail your exposure and really learn what a great looking image looks like on the back of your camera and how that translates into the computer. Good luck!
The Herrintons thank you 🙏 I might be using this same price of information very shortly... to get my camera set just rght... I’m ordering one in the next couple of weeks...
It's all about color science glass. Nice picture. I own Canon g30 but have it in rail system and 7 inch monitor and ninja 2 recorder. I bought it only for lens. Think sensor is same as your sensor but it's not 4k . Sorry I mean processor is same. I use zoonh5 so I'm in 3000 dollars and your cam is compact. If I could do it all over I'd buy your Canon
I have a C100 II . . . have been wrestling with the idea of continuing to use this camera more (weddings is all I do) or work on building up another system (possibly another brand). Thought's? What would you do, and if you stuck with Canon how would you best rig up the c100 to shoot B-Roll?
My wife and I use the 60D and 70D and want to upgrade. However, we're wondering if the difference between the 70D and C100 would be too different to use in multi-cam shoots. Thoughts?
Hey The Quirky Couple I use the c100 mark II as my main camera and a 70d, 80d and a 5d mark III as back ups and they match up just fine. I do use the EOSHD C-LOG on those three and then regular C-LOG on the c100.
Thinking about picking up C100 Mark II to compliment my 5D4 and Sony A6500. I use the Sony on gimbal, and the 5D4 on either monopod or tripod. Do you do any handheld with C100? Or must be on tripod / monopod?
Hmmm, good question. That'll depend on a few different factors like what kind of audio you need, how much access you'll have to power for charging and a computer to dump cards, if you care about ND filters, etc. I would probably lean towards the C100 for reliability and flexibility over the image quality bump of the GH5. Both could easily work tho!
You said you don't shoot in C LOG so what do you shoot in? and are you familiar with the OLD canon XLH1 and if so do you know how they compare image wise? Thanks in advance for or if you answer my question :) ... Marcus... Legends Studio / Indiana
I don't turn any of that down manually, I just shoot in Wide DR. This does result in a little flatter image, so I do add sharpening and contrast back in for sure.
How do I set up the camera to film at different apparatuses.... My lenses range starting at 2.8 but say i want f5.6 or f8.0 using my using my canon 24mm to 105 f4.0 l series lens
The C100 really works best in low or challenging light with f/2.8 and faster lenses. The 24-105mm f/4 (L) is an amazing lens paired with the C100 & C100 mkii. If you are filming at 24 fps, shutter to 1/48, IOS 850. If you can control the light, bring more light to your shoot. Even a small LED panel light will help. If not, bump up your ISO but be careful of noise. I have the C100 MKII and I stay with Canon f/2.8 or faster lenses. The Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 is an awesome lens but the AF is a little noisy. Need a good shot gun mic or wireless. The Rokinon cinema lenses also work well. I use a 24mm T/1.2 manual focus but I’m still learning with these. The Rokinon 85mm T1.2 really rocks. The key is getting more light onto your subjects using a fast lens.
Great video. Have you any idea if there will be a C100 Mark III? The mark II is everything I want except 120fps. I don't need 4k or cinema raw or the price tag of the c200. Can't find anywhere if there will be a mark iii coming out!
Hey Michael, thanks for watching! No word on the C100mkIII as of yet. I really hope they do make it tho! I honestly don't know if 120fps would end up in it if they did. All I would want in a C100mkIII would be touch screen for DPAF and potentially 4K!
Hello sir! My question is would it be possible to create big theatre screen style projects on my C100, such as for Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, etc. Thanks.
I’ve heard good things! The electronic ND filter is very interesting to me. MattJohnson has a great video reviewing the FS5, definitely check that out!
How is the dynamic range compared to the a73 whichbis very popular for weddings. Also how can you stabilize this in a practical way for weddings hand held. Does it have dual pixel af.
Dynamic range is great. Not sure the exact comparison to the A73 but I would imaging the Sony might be slightly better in Log but the Canon better in Wide DR. I wouldn't suggest hand holding this camera for weddings. Using an IS lens would help but it's not really designed to be used that way. The C100MKII does have Dual Pixel AF and some MKIs come with it. It's limited to a small box in the middle of the sensor however so it's not as helpful as other Canon cameras.
Awesome camera! I love a ton of things about it, I just can't justify the price right now. I'll probably buy a used one in 3-4 years when the price drops to the ~$3K range (just like I did with the C100s).
I have the c100 mark one, One thing that has been tricky for me are picture profiles, do you by chance have nay information on that? Also what lenses do you use primarily on the C100 mark one?
Hey Andrew! I use the Wide DR picture profile (PP8) on both cameras and pretty much have only ever used that profile! The lenses I carry on a wedding day are the Sigma 18-35 f/1.8, Canon 50mm f/1.2L and Canon85mm f/1.2L! You can check out all our gear in the Kit page (linked in the video description!)
Thank you! I've gotten a ton of Picture profiles to use in different situations but I think I realized that it's not working as well as I hoped, I'll have to fiddle with the Wide DR gamma to get the right one. Thank you for your inputs. Always good talking to a fellow C100 filmmaker! :)
@@tylerherrinton AWESOME! Currently running a C100 for A cam, and an EOS R for the B cam and Detailed shots. I do testimonials with the C100 (matched with the Sigma 18-35) nearing the end of the night. That seems to be the selling point for me, cause all the couples come back raving about it haha. Plus it's the easiest part to edit. Looking forward to seeing what canon is releasing this year?
Just got a c100 and I’m a lil disappointed . I really haven’t changed any settings but Str8 out the box using a samyang 35mm lens the quality is not that good.. dslr looks better. Hopefully after i mess with it I’ll get better footage
The lens from the Canon XLH1 is a EF mount so it will fit but what I don't know is if there is a connection for the power to the zoom or not... Thanks for your response :) ... I love Canon and have been using them for 30+ years
All that being said, these are solid arguments. This camera is better than I gave it credit for... and in the same price range as your a6500s and GH5s.. not bad
Haha, thanks man! Yeah I think it's a solid pickup if you need the pro features and small file sizes but don't want to drop $6K-$8K on a newer cinema camera. It's not for everyone, but I love mine!
I hear you on the old Canons. Their compression is AWFUL! 40mbps bitrates, but HUGE files. Definitely NOT an efficient codec. This is why I switched to Sony, myself for paid jobs. (Olympus for personal) - but yeah, the old 5D cameras and the rebel line have very poor compression in their video files, for sure.
I think the number one reason i dont want this camera is no 60p. Have you tried using the 60i and deinterlacing it in post? If so, what was your experience? Did u lose significant quality? Its so sad cuz this camera is half the price of the mark ii. I would live to pick one up as i am waiting patiently to jump back to canon system
Yeah that is a big downside to the MKI. I absolutely love the 60p on the MKII, it looks so good. I’ve experimented with the 60i but wouldn’t use it for anything professional. You can get a used MKII for less than $3K for sure. Well worth it in my opinion for all you get
yea i figured that much. I'll probably have to just suck it up and get the mark ii. But ive been following you for awhile an your one of few that use the c100 and not many people realize the benefits of a proper video camera. Anyway. Thanks again for all your videos. love what your doing with your channel.
If you need 60p, the MKII is definitely worth the extra money. It has other advantages too, but that’s the biggest one. There are definitely advantages to a true cinema camera. It’s easy to get SO focused on pure image quality and forget about easy of use and functionality. Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words! I’m glad the videos are helpful!!
Your video and this comment thread have been very helpful in leaning my focus closer to a C100. The cinema line was out of my wallet's dialect when I first started. But, instead of focusing on another DSLR, I am going to pursue a proper cinema camera. A DSLR which does Photo and Video has to split itself between the two. I want to add one that is built for video to my kit. A GH5 is a great addition, but I'm all Thanks!
Honestly, yes! It depends on the type of work you do and what you need to deliver. But if you do a lot of long form content and deliver in 1080p then it can be a great option for sure!
@@tylerherrinton awesome thank you. I kinda wish it had the 60p but I have a gopro for that. My cousin asked me to help video her wedding and I just want to help her out more by getting a better product that I could create for her.
@@tylerherrinton that’s what I’m thinking but it’s just above what I can afford. I feel like a wedding would have some good moments when 60fps would be useful
I crush weddings with the gh5 cause I know how to use lights and lenses. If I used a toy camera I would get great results as well cause I know what I’m doing.
Just got the c100! I don't NEED 4k but i do need the battery life, built in ND Filters, small file size, and overall ergo-dynamic and aesthetics of this c100!
Mine is on its way to me, can't wait for it! Did it work out for you in the last 2 years?

Great video! AVCHD or MP4? Which is better?
Shaka MP4 has better image quality. Avchd has better audio

Would you pick the canon c100 over the Canon 5D Mark III?
Every time. 5D3 footage looks like mush next to C100 footage.

How many hours have you done on it thinking of buying one it has 512hrs do you think its stil good to buy

which lens do you use if you are 15-30 feet from the subjects?

I think the only thing your missing on the gh5 is the ND filters. I think together that would be a hell of a combo
Low light is bad and autofocus is worse lol. I realize many times we will use manual focus but hey, a good autofocus system never hurt nobody

All that being said, these are solid arguments. This camera is better than I gave it credit for... and in the same price range as your a6500s and GH5s.. not bad
Haha, thanks man! Yeah I think it's a solid pickup if you need the pro features and small file sizes but don't want to drop $6K-$8K on a newer cinema camera. It's not for everyone, but I love mine!
I hear you on the old Canons. Their compression is AWFUL! 40mbps bitrates, but HUGE files. Definitely NOT an efficient codec. This is why I switched to Sony, myself for paid jobs. (Olympus for personal) - but yeah, the old 5D cameras and the rebel line have very poor compression in their video files, for sure.
Yeah it’s crazy especially considering you’re not really getting much in terms of dynamic range or sharpness haha.
8 MINUTES!
how do people deal with stabilisation ? i find it hilarious that you pay such amount of money and you film handheld without IBIS
may be they have some sort of stabilizers. i have one even im poor
it's not the same weight than a dslr, if you have a wide lense it's gonna be fine ;)
if it would only have 60p :(
The markII has awesome 60p! It looks so good 👌🏼
it doesnt have 1080 60?
willbhamfilm nope, mark I has only 50i
I think the number one reason i dont want this camera is no 60p. Have you tried using the 60i and deinterlacing it in post? If so, what was your experience? Did u lose significant quality? Its so sad cuz this camera is half the price of the mark ii. I would live to pick one up as i am waiting patiently to jump back to canon system
Yeah that is a big downside to the MKI. I absolutely love the 60p on the MKII, it looks so good. I’ve experimented with the 60i but wouldn’t use it for anything professional. You can get a used MKII for less than $3K for sure. Well worth it in my opinion for all you get
yea i figured that much. I'll probably have to just suck it up and get the mark ii. But ive been following you for awhile an your one of few that use the c100 and not many people realize the benefits of a proper video camera. Anyway. Thanks again for all your videos. love what your doing with your channel.
If you need 60p, the MKII is definitely worth the extra money. It has other advantages too, but that’s the biggest one. There are definitely advantages to a true cinema camera. It’s easy to get SO focused on pure image quality and forget about easy of use and functionality.
Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words! I’m glad the videos are helpful!!
Your video and this comment thread have been very helpful in leaning my focus closer to a C100. The cinema line was out of my wallet's dialect when I first started. But, instead of focusing on another DSLR, I am going to pursue a proper cinema camera. A DSLR which does Photo and Video has to split itself between the two. I want to add one that is built for video to my kit. A GH5 is a great addition, but I'm all Thanks!
Still relevant even now in 2021?
Honestly, yes! It depends on the type of work you do and what you need to deliver. But if you do a lot of long form content and deliver in 1080p then it can be a great option for sure!
@@tylerherrinton awesome thank you. I kinda wish it had the 60p but I have a gopro for that. My cousin asked me to help video her wedding and I just want to help her out more by getting a better product that I could create for her.
@@RyanDimal The C100 MKII shoots 60p! SO if that's important to you I'd spend the extra money and go that route!
@@tylerherrinton that’s what I’m thinking but it’s just above what I can afford. I feel like a wedding would have some good moments when 60fps would be useful
@@tylerherrinton any thoughts on bag to transport camera?
I crush weddings with the gh5 cause I know how to use lights and lenses. If I used a toy camera I would get great results as well cause I know what I’m doing.
For sure! The camera does not make or break the film, and you can definitely make great films with the GH5 or any camera for that matter!
So. This Video is 2 Years old, yet it says "Buy in 2020". Either you are far ahead of time, or you tweak your Headlines from time to time...
