Canon C80 | First Look & Test Footage

Is this the camera you've been waiting for? Let us know what you think of the C80 down below!

[@fsb6724]

nope. Happy C70 No glowing buttons like the C400! DAMN!

[@classicboy97]

@@CVPTV I’m hoping for an FX6ii… my productions are ready for one, but holding out on the current FX6. Would love to have a body that can have usable audio without the handle attachment. Bonus if it gets a s35 mode as well - willing to take a hit on the 2nd base ISO if it meant having slightly more resolution without sacrificing rolling shutter readout

[@jacy123]

I’ve been going between the ronin 4D 8k (for stabilized walking around shots ) plus a C400 (telephoto/b cam) Or the raptor x only… and it’s really just looking like the ronin is a freak that needs a closer look so I’ll probably do that and the C400. I would do the C 80 instead if it had 6K 60.

[@schoolboymanny6564]

If it had a global shutter absolutely, I'm waiting for a sony or canon cinema camera with global shutter.

[@dsdddsd4543we]

The RED price cut announcement makes so much sense now. The $4K-10K market is on fire right now.

[@MrMoviePhoneEx]

I actually think they may have announced the c80 slightly earlier because RED undercut the c400 with their 7k body only price point... Though it would still take around 10k to rig the red out properly and the 8k c400 is self contained right out of the box.

[@jacy123]

Not to mention that DJI is offering like $2300 in extras with the Ronin 4D 8k and bundle discounts.

same lol. I still don't like the dslr body style but the image out the c70 has always impressed me. I can live with the body style for a good used price.

[@potvoramedia]

C400 was way too above the specs I needed while C70 was lacking the full-frame sensor and I hated the crop factor. So yes, C80 has been exactly what I was waiting for. Coupling it with R5C hybrid as a second body sounds pretty fair to me.

[@philgoodframeworks]

[@juliancroot]

If you don't already have a C70, the C80 looks sensible. But for existing C70 owners I'd say stick with what you have... Especially if like me you still use EF glass. The speedbooster pretty much eradicates the full frame advantage of the C80, while keeping the benefits of DGO. I have a smallrig base plate on mine to fix the silly thread position. You can use WiFi or Ethernet on the C70 with a cheap USB C dongle and control it remotely. The only thing you'll miss compared to the C80 is what looks like marginally improved autofocus... Which still lags behind their previous gen mirrorless cameras, 6k output (personally I don't that), and a stronger screen hinge. The C80 maybe better in low light, but with a speedbooster the C70's light gathering is a stop higher than the ISO number suggests. I'd wager the C80 also drinks more battery juice than the C70, and the C70 will fit better on a gimbal. So nothing to see here for me. I'll sell my 2 Canon C70s if the upcoming Panasonic S2H has built in NDs. Otherwise I'm sticking with what I have.

[@13StopsPocketFilms]

Well said.

[@mjgfromDDD]

Used my C70 with the speedbooster on my recent film. Paired with a Zeiss lens, I had no complaints and still enjoy the C70 for all my work.

[@NeilEvery]

So glad I held off on buying the C70. For my needs this is the perfect camera.

[@soshaibu]

I think you should wait a little more

[@NeilEvery]

@@soshaibu Why do you say that? Is there another camera coming from Canon this year or is someone else going to blow the doors off? I'm kinda locked into Canon at this point as I have a solid collection of glass that is all EF and RF

[@soshaibu]

@@NeilEverythat was a joke Neil. I respect every newer model of cameras, but I’m more particular about the person behind the camera than the gadget itself. You can never exhaust getting newer gadgets and it goes on and on. Canon is going to bring a better camera than the C80 soon just like they did against the C70 speaking from this review I mean. So saying this is the perfect camera you were waiting for sounds a sort of way to me (on a lighter note). In my opinion, it’s even better one sharpens their skill to be great at maneuvering and bringing out the best in whatever camera, than actually waiting for the best camera.

[@korrofilms]

Glad B was the C80, as I much preferred it over A. More clarity and richer colours, it made the FX6 footage look so soft in comparison. The superior RF lenses on the C80 were controlling the shadows much better than the Sigma was on the FX6, which also made the B footage have more 'pop'.

[@donmcvey]

The last shot on the FX6 looks slightly out of focus I think, plus the extra contrast from the C80 makes it look even sharper, but yeah - the C80 is definitely sharper. Not sure about richer colours as that's down to the grading.

[@JojoJoget]

You’re just repeating what he said but missed out on the part where he said FX6 retains highlights better, lenses got nothing to do with the DR. You think a camera reviewer don’t know how to use the cameras?

Let’s be honest - these looked more or less the same. Imagine a client that prefers one look over the other :)

[@rovingearth7028]

[@donmcvey]

@@majcyy These days you really have to side by side stuff to see differences. Clients are more than happy with an FX6 image. We already know this. They'll be happy for years to come.

The sdi output now means the door is open for the very nice kinefinity evf. for this camera which is almost enough reason for me to get it. Nikon/Red-will be watching this space with great interest.

[@shueibdahir]

[@Saylerjesse]

this is incredible. i didnt hear a thing about this!

[@jimmystewartuk]

When viewing the A&B camera comparison, I personally like the DR and Colours Look straight out of camera so this is a win win for the C80 🔥

[@renaissancedigital5730]

I really am happy with my C70 purchase as from CVP's tests it appears to have more dynamic range. For me more dynamic range and smaller files are more important that triple ISO. I also prefer S35. The only reason why I have gotten full frame cameras is they tend to have better image quality. It's not the case this time though. I know the dynamic range difference is probably less than a stop, but for me the C70 struggles in high contrast situations, it gets noisy, the C400/C80 would be even worse. This is compared to an Alexa, which isn't fair but it is what it is.

[@johnburnsdp]

While I am very happy that there is no IBIS on the C400, I do think that that would have been an interesting addition on the C70, adding versatility to its use as a B-cam. Still, what a win for Canon. They're on a roll and I'm happy to be heavily invested in the RF mount.

Plus CF Expresss Type B media! 💚

[@theowlfromduolingo7982]

That's what i thought too. Odd decision. No way to record to an ssd too. Just. Why?

[@justinhofstadler6398]

The spec sheet on canon’s website says that the C80 can output 6K60 raw over HDMI. I still would definitely rather have a CF express card slot but it’s nice that it can at least record 6k60 raw externally.

Just buy an older c70 for half the price and add a speed booster. You still get the amazing dgo sensor with all other main features of the c80 and you can buy lights and an amazing lens with the rest of the money. Even though, the tripple iso is a nice new feauture… just thinking is it worth the price?!

@@Alexiuside that would be awesome!

[@CiprianTrip]

I'm curious to see a detailed dynamic range test between the C70 and C80. Reportedly, the C70 had a slightly better dynamic range than the C400 because of its DGO sensor. If the C80 is the same, then I'd say that's a step back for Canon.

[@barrygriffin5609]

Step forward with the BSI sensor. 16stop, triple base ISO, Low Rolling Shutter, and best in class AF. DGO Full frame wouldn't give the extra benefits that BSI can.

[@urielsantistebanfilms]

@@barrygriffin5609 Yes; it was a positive trade off overall I believe.

[@MrMoviePhoneEx]

less than 1/2 a stop difference, with more options. It's not a step back, but a FF DGO with either low rolling or a global shutter would be amazing, but that's not where Canon is headed right now. Thriple base ISO is a game changer for Canon and it currently out performs Sony putting both of their new c cams in direct compition for demand. Very happy about this direction because I work with Sony shooters all the time, and Canon finally has an answer.

[@shueibdahir]

@@barrygriffin5609the c70 wasn't 16 stops. It was infact 14. It combined two 12bit linear signals to one. The c80 seems to be a 14bit linear sensor so with a signal to noise ratio of 1 it's 13.5 stops. Remember: A/D bitdepth = a cap on dynamic range since the A/D cannot register values over it's numerical capacity

[@scruzb]

Aside from all future considerations, what really matters is the final image quality. The C80 looks so much better than the FX6, not to mention its RF-friendly mount.🔥

Hey what’s up bro, how do I configure the Canon C80 to playback with the display lut on while recording Clog2 footage? While recording the display lut and view assist is on, but when I go to playback the footage, it’s only playing back in the base log profile view

[@urielsantistebanfilms]

That way I see it, C400 still is the better investment in my opinion. If you are getting cameras that are able to shoot RAW, independently of your line of work, you need to take advantage of that at some point. And this camera only shoots up to 30fps. Besides, those SD cards really are not meant to work at full throttle with high speeds and resolutions in my experience with the C70. C400 is more expensive but it allows you to fully take advantage of the full capabilities of this sensor the way I see it.

[@ruff1draft]

This is absolutely brilliant..

[@MrMoviePhoneEx]

I've seen some great balance videos for the c400 on the rs4 pro gimbal, if you had to pick between the c400 and the c80 for more run and gun work - would you say the body made that much of a difference in terms of rigging for it?

[@ImageGeneration]

Great intro to the C80. I'd be interested to see a comparison test with the FX6 but please use the same lenses on both cameras. A camera test that uses different lenses on each camera is a muddied test.

[@sa.t.2507]

This camera is just as capable as the C400 but they crippled it with software to protect the C400. Sony should take a note as they released the FX6 and F’ed over us FX9 users pretty hard.

Unfortunately, as in the case of the c70, I do not take this model into account due to the lack of a cfexpress slot. I still use c200 and I can't imagine recording in RAW format on SD cards

[@invisibleadversary]

Everyone’s just waiting to see what Sony does before fully committing. These new crop of cameras will be the standard for the next 5 years at least. Also, I don’t know how you could justify a KX when the C80 exists. It would be a purely brand-based decision.

[@thetomwestshow]

So this and the C400 have exactly the same sensor. Is it possible that the colours coming out of a camera don't just depend on the sensor but also some other variables? I much much prefer the footage from the C400 video. Every shot looks amazing to me, but I don't like the look of the colours on these shots. Is that just to do with the grading applied to the footage or is there some way in which the C80 and C400 might be producing different colours even though they have the same sensor? Thanks so much for any insight.

A full-frame C70 style camera is quite intriguing, but to be honest guys, I think Nikon is pretty much the only major camera company that is not handicapping its latest camera models. If you look at the Z6iii, Z8 and Z9, they all offer full frame internal compressed raw 6K or 8K up to 60fps, 4K up to 120 (it is a S35 crop but I think that is a limitation of keeping the tech at a reasonable price), no need for special batteries, and CF Express instead of SD card (really frustrating Canon stuck with SD cards for the C80, purposely handicapping it). And the 4K 120 is TRUE 120 fps, unlike most other cameras which force you to record 4K 120 in either 24, 30 or 60 fps playback and without audio (Canon also guilty of this). I can’t wait until Nikon/RED release a true cinema camera with all the same great features of the Z series along with hopefully internal NDs and a 3:2 sensor for anamorphic shooting.

The c80 certainly shines herre!

[@DaCarnival]

Conspiracy theory - Canon actually licenced the (patented) DGO tech from Arri when the midrange cinema market was slipping out from under them, meaning the margins on the C300 mark3 and the C70 were razor thin for Canon. Maybe it's not even financially viable for them to keep making DGO cameras, and maybe Arri has a stipulation about how high end those cameras can be (similar to how Zaxcom is willing to licence their onboard recording patent for consumer products, not professional stuff). In any case I don't understand why they don't make a full frame DGO sensor...

[@bobsteinfinkel]

I had the C70, couldn't stand the super 35 sensor or the softness of the image, and wound up selling it. This new release really checks a lot of boxes, and would make me much more likely to buy this camera. I have the R5C now, love it, but the battery life issue def gets in the way, and is a factor in when I decide to use it. This takes care of that, although the bigger form factor makes it a bit more of a challenge to put on a gimbal. Anyways, nice to see Canon making a camera that doesn't seem to have any big compromises in it at a decent price point. Also, canon color science is still better than Sony, you can still always tell Sony footage by the yellowish/milky tint in the skin tones.

Is there any reasoning as to why they don't offer a 10 bit 6k format? If the R5/c can do 10 bit 8k, why can't this and the c400 do 6k? More than simply being full frame, the 6k resolution is an appealing upgrade to me over the c70/c300iii. I'm happy to shoot in Canon RAW LT to get 6k, in fact I'd prefer it, but it's a big bummer they stuck to SD cards and limited it to 30p. It just seems like a frustrating limitation in the versatility of these new cameras. Too bad as the c400 is still a bit bigger of a body than I'd like (wish they could have made it the size of a Raptor) but the c80 seems just hindered enough to be all that enticing of an upgrade to the c70, while still being stuck with the quirky form factor.

I upgraded my OG BMPCC to my C70 for filmmaking 5 months ago. Just finished my third film using the C70 and even though this C80 looks amazing, I love how the C70 has taught me alot more with storytelling.

I still think I'm gonna pick up the fx3... Though I hope with this camera it forces Sony to update their fx3.

That VAT is ridiculous.

[@janthony1980]

Might explain the Red komodo price drop perhaps

[@76tygfgug]

komodo is still much better of this piece of junk

[@amiyamallick9494]

​@@76tygfgug your comment is childish..

[@76tygfgug]

@@amiyamallick9494 nope. Canon has a crap image on all it's cameras with no exception

[@victorlolo2008]

Wow , didn't expect this

[@DynamicLearning4u]

Coming from Sony... this is a wow! Tempted to switch!

[@CampoutsWithJay]

Do you think it’s worth getting over a fx6? That’s what I’m torn about

[@RielCreative]

I’ve been waiting two years!

[@ineedstoknow]

I am glad i waited!

cmat cameo on cvp goes crazy

[@masagazialvink9093]

Canon has won at this point 🎉😂

I love the positioning of the monitor on the c400, but this C80 (I'm a C70 owner) fits my needs better. Monitor so close to your chest hurt my neck, so I pre-ordered the C400 which is overkill in so many ways for my personal needs. Is there a way with the new SDI out to rig a monitor and use the autofocus with toch control like on the monitor that comes on the body?

[@astartup]

Super35 crop mode isn't as good because you have fewer autofocus points. It's useful, would rather have it than not.

[@typorosz]

the big problem with C80 is the limited DR compared to C70 and the lack of SpeedBooster that was the only way to eliminate DIRT STICKING ON YOUR SENSOR!!!

[@JeremyLevis]

Do we know how many more nits the new screen has compared to the C70?
