Two Whitepapers from Canon about the C300's technology

[cowpunk52]

Canon released 2 PDF whitepapers. Here are the links:

"New 35mm CMOS Image Sensor for Digital Cine Motion Imaging"

"RGB Resolution Considerations in a New CMOS Sensor for Digital Cine Motion Imaging"

I'm just going to assume those papers state that the C300 is a $14K Arri Alexa. ....

In terms of the sensor itself, they kind of do. And that's all that they really cover, is the sensor.

Mated to a full 10-bit 4:4:4 back end, it might well be in contention with the Alexa, but ... then it wouldn't be $16k or whatever the real price will be.

Yes, very interesting and a worthwhile read, even if the C300 is way out of my budget. It's still worth keeping up.
