TECHNOLOGY
Canon Super 35mm CMOS Sensor
Modeled on the Super 35mm 3-perf motion picture film standard, Canon's
CMOS sensor has an active image size of 24.6 x 13.8mm. It utilizes
3840 (H) x 2160 (V) photosites to perform the crucial optoelectronic
transformation of digital imaging. Each photosite is a generous 6.4 x 6.4
micrometers in area and each has a microlens that ensures the highest
efficiency in light transfer to the individual photodiode. Proprietary
technologies within the photosite simultaneously lower the image sensor
noise floor while enhancing the photon capacity of the photodiode – a combination that assures
superb dynamic range. The image sensor utilizes an innovative readout technique that delivers full
bandwidth individual RGB video components without the need for any debayering algorithms. Each
of these components has a 1920 (H) x 1080 (V) sampling structure at up to 60 frames. From these
original video components, a 1080-line 60i format or a 1280 (H) x 720 (V) at 60P format is selectively
derived. A high-speed readout significantly reduces the subjective visibility of the vertical skewing on
fast-moving horizontal subjects that is characteristic of CMOS image sensors.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
software. With the WFT-E6A module, the camera can be controlled
from up to 150 feet away over an 802.11 b/g/n/a wireless network.
The WFT-E6A lets you start and stop recording and also adjust focus,
white balance, gain and other parameters as well as adjust the aperture
of Canon EF lenses. It also gives you input marking for metadata and
offers a live view of the composition. It even supports incorporating
GPS information into the file metadata – useful for general cinematic
applications, and essential for expedition filmmakers.
* As of October 18, 2011, the Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E6A has not been authorized as
required by the rules of the Federal Communications Commission. This device is not, and
may not be offered for sale or lease, or sold or leased, until authorization is obtained.
