A TOUGH CAMERA FOR TOUGH ASSIGNMENTS
— CREATIVE VERSATILITY IN A COMPACT & DURABLE BODY
The tough and rugged EOS-1D C, effectively sealed for protection against dust and moisture, is designed
to go where other 4K cameras cannot. The size and weight of this remarkable self-contained camera
allow cinematographers to capture both motion picture and still images in the tightest and most hostile
environments. With a bare minimum of equipment, the EOS-1D C helps to ensure optimum image quality
in virtually all lighting conditions, in cramped spaces limiting mobility like cars, planes, boats and
underwater housings – and even mounted on the end of extended jib arms. Meanwhile, the optional
Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E6A unit connects the EOS-1D C to the future with its link to
wireless technology.
Compact, Durable Body
The EOS-1D C is a video imaging powerhouse providing a
choice of 4K at 24P or high frame rate HD in-camera capture
with no need for external power or recording devices. Fully
self-contained in a magnesium alloy exterior and designed
for portability and mobility, the camera weighs less than 3.5
pounds. Its dimensions are 6.2" wide, 6.4" high and 3.3" deep.
Control layout is intuitive for both still and movie shooting
and its compact size provides an unobtrusive means of
getting all kinds of desired footage. It comes with an LP-E4N
Lithium-ion battery pack that, when fully charged, enables the
EOS-1D C to run for up to 1 hour and 25 minutes shooting 4K
and over 2 hours shooting Full HD. It is tightly sealed for
protection from dust and weather conditions, and also
features the EOS Integrated Cleaning System, which includes
a Self-Cleaning Sensor unit and Dust Deletion Data
Acquisition that can be appended to subsequent images. In
addition, the accessory alignment positioning plug is designed
so that third-party accessories can be precisely attached.
Canon Cinema and EF Lenses
Compatibility with Full-Frame Sensor
The EOS-1D C deploys the latest generation of Canon's
Full-Frame CMOS sensor. The Canon Cinema Prime Lenses
and standard EF Lenses will cover the full image circle of
that Full-frame sensor. The Super 35mm Cinema Zoom
Lenses require the camera to be switched into the Super
35mm Crop mode.
Built-in Headphone Terminals
The EOS-1D C includes a built-in headphone terminal for a
stereo mini-jack. It gives the clearest audio image while the
camera records and allows the most immediate and flexible
monitoring of audio while shooting.
Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E6A Unit
with Remote Capabilities
The EOS-1D C also has a system extension terminal that can
connect to the optional Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E6A
unit to provide unique wireless capabilities not typically
available in cinema cameras. Users can control the EOS-1D C
using any web-enabled devices such as laptops, smartphones
and tablet PCs. Functions of the EOS-1D C with the WFT-E6A
unit include the ability to adjust shooting parameters, to start
and stop the camera, to monitor a remote feed and to input
metadata. Using Bluetooth v2.1+EDR, the transmitter unit can
also communicate with external GPS units to embed
location data with footage.

"I think what's really exciting is the versatility.
In the moment it allows you to adapt and
change."

Fully-featured 18.1 MP Full-Frame DSLR
with 12.0 fps Still Image Burst Rate
The EOS-1D C shares its heritage with the EOS-1 Series
family and is a world-class DSLR camera besides being a
digital cinematography powerhouse. For capturing stills, the
EOS-1D C offers the same high level of performance as an
EOS DSLR with top-of-the-range focusing, exposure and
burst mode. It originates high-resolution still images at
5134 (H) x 2340 (V) pixels. These can be critical as background
5+ Image Processor
plates in moviemaking. Dual
chips and an 18.1 Megapixel Full-Frame CMOS sensor
provide a burst rate of up to 12.0 fps for capturing action with
exceptional quality. With ISO sensitivity ranging from 100 to
51200, expandable to L: 50, H1: 102400 and H2: 204800,
the EOS-1D C allows the photographer to grab the best
possible shot in the most challenging light conditions. The
61-Point High-Density Reticular Autofocus system with a
coordinated 100,000 pixel RGB Metering system provides
sharp images with incredible color and clarity.
