Shogun:

“The Cinema EOS range is the workhorse of the modern production environment. The Shogun turns the C300 MkII workhorse into a race horse, recording direct from the RAW sensor output of the camera to Apple ProRes or Avid DNxHR.” said Jeromy Young CEO and co-founder of Atomos. “We can now process from sensor to record and all the way to final production covering industry standard edit codecs and RAW workflow – Shogun is a must for this camera.”

The Shogun brings a host of monitoring, playback and deck functionality all designed to make camera setup, shot setup and work in post production easier. And new C300 MkII users can stock up on Atomos CFast cards available in both 64GB and 128GB to keep production costs even lower.

We have to admit that Dual Pixel can substitute succesfully manual focus at many scenarios.

I can tell you more. Real TOF addons that build depth maps can substitute manual focusing in most situations.

Really interesting! Too bad it is so expensive!

Owners and purchasers of the Canon EOS C300 Mark II will soon be able to benefit from a new lens mount service option which offers the capability to change the 4K Digital Cinema Camera’s original EF mount to EF with Cinema Lock or to a PL mount and back again.

After purchasing the C300 Mark II, service mount options will soon be available from Canon Regional Competence Centres (RCC) in France, Germany, Italy, Sweden or the UK. These services are expected to be available in October 2015; further details of how you can purchase the lens mount options will be communicated shortly

DAVE: Not counting the image quality increase – going with a higher bit rate codec, etc. – even if it didn’t really have that and the 4K, it would still be a substantially better camera because it’s more usable. The top handle mounts bolt to the sides as well as the shoe which was always flimsy before… it’s like you’re on set you can’t use that. And they changed the power output to a Lemo connector so it’s more standardized. There’s a better auto focus system. They use this method of inverted triangles so that when they merge it’s in perfect focus. It’s cool, it’s a focus assist type thing. I believe it’s using the basic tech from the auto focus system but it works on a Cine lens so you can select the point that you want in focus and as you turn the ring you can see the triangles merge and then they light up once it’s fixed.
