Are you tired of the full-frame vs. crop sensor debate? The Canon C700 FF might just be the answer to your prayers. This camera’s versatility in sensor size options gives you everything you’d want and more. Not only can you switch between full-frame and super 35, but you can even change to super 16.
Why is this helpful? Well, not all lenses are capable of covering a full-frame sensor image circle. Being able to change between sensor sizes gives you the option to use any lens you can think of. Plus, it affects the way you shoot. A larger sensor yields a much shallower depth-of-field and better low-light capabilities.
In this ShareGrid video, Brent Barbano shows us how the C700 FF changes the game. The filmmakers switch between full-frame vintage Canon K35 lenses to more modern zoom lenses by switching the sensor size. Sometimes, you want the most dreamy, shallow depth of field, and sometimes you want to sharpen things up a bit. The full-frame sensor will yield that shallow depth of field, but of course, switching over to S35 will change that up a bit if you want.
If you’re not initiated, here is the spec list for the camera: 5.9K Full-Frame CMOS Sensor with DAF, EF-Cinema Lock Type Mount, Dual Pixel AF, Triple DIGIC DV 5, XF-AVC and ProRes Recording to CFast 2.0, Internal Full-Frame up to 60 fps, Internal 4K/Super35 Crop up to 72 fps, Internal 2K/Super16 Crop up to 168 fps, Selectable Gamma and Log Curves, ACES Support, and External Raw Recording Option.
