On paper, I'm having a hard time digging up these specs. The Canon website lists the following specs for these various cameras.
XF300: 2-Channel, PCM digital recording, 16-Bit; 48kHz
C300: Linear PCM; 2-Channel; 16-Bit; 48kHz
C100: 24 Mbps Mode: Linear PCM; 2-Channel; 16-Bit; 48 kHz (i'm guessing this means while in 24mbps video mode)
5D Mark III: Linear PCM
7D: Linear PCM
Some cameras don't even have any audio specs, and just list H.264 for video.
When I import my 7D footage into Premiere, it says: Source Audio Format: 48000 Hz - 16 bit - Stereo
So, does this mean that the DSLR's record at the same audio data rate as the XF300, C300, and C100? I understand the preamp's suck, that's a different topic and I can get around that with my juicedlink box.
The question is, do the Canon DSLR's record at uncompressed PCM audio, 16 bit, 48KHz? The Canon website is light on specs for the DSLR's and I'd like to get some confirmation from someone who knows about this.
Thank you!
