I had a preproduction C100 model in my hands. Shot some stress tests, but later on figured that all the clips had the whites clipped at app. 80IRE. So then I fiddled around and found that this only happened at ISOs below 800. Unfortunately I figured this out just when I had to return the camera, so I the end I just snapped a short clip at varying exposure values (using aperture).

It was shot in "cinema mode", ISO800 with Canon L 24 - 70 at 24mm in 1080 25p.
I can't give you any more info as the menus didn't have any. As I said, it was a preproduction model.
Only had a "normal" and a "cinema" gamma option and nothing more. No other settings regarding image control.
Regarding image quality: I'm surprised at the huge amount of chroma noise present in the picture. You can't push the levels.
(I'm not used at shooting with low bitrate codecs, so maybe this is normal??)

Agreed. I was just poking a little fun. That clip is really sharp the dancing noise in the clip is actually rain in the background. Why no 60P CANON??????? sigh
