4K Workflow Overview - Canon EOS C300 Mark II Instruction Manual

4K Workflow Overview

The following illustrates the typical 4K workflow for this camera.
Operating modes:
Recording
4K Intra-frame recording (MXF)
REC OUT or
MON. terminal
SD card
2K recording
(MXF)
Shoot in 4K mode (A 62).
You can record 4K Intra-frame (YCbCr 4:2:2) data on a CFast card in the camera, or record 4K RAW
data using an external 4K recorder connected to the camera's REC OUT terminal or MON. terminal
(A 164).
In addition to the primary 4K recording, you can record simultaneously 2K proxy clips on an SD
card in the camera (A 111).
When using an external 4K recorder, develop the RAW data using the Cinema RAW Development
software (A 172) to generate full-quality data.
• You can also generate proxy data with the software.
• 4K clips (YCbCr 4:2:2) recorded on the CFast card can be treated as full-quality data without any additional
processing.
Transfer the MXF files of proxy clips recorded in the camera, or proxy data generated by the
software, to your NLE system and edit offline (A 170).
Perform color grading based on the full-quality data.
