Canon EOS-1D C 4K Cinema 18.1Mp CMOS Sensor Camera Now In Stock at B&H Photo Video
NYC, NY (PRWEB) January 09, 2013
B&H Photo Video is pleased to share with professional photographers that the long awaited Canon EOS-1D C camera is currently in stock and ready to ship.
The Canon EOS-1D C Camera from Canon is a breakthrough in hybrid HDSLR technology–able to record stills, 4K and Full HD video, to either two on-board CF cards or uncompressed Full HD to outboard recorders.
One of the largest benefits of having 4K video technology in a DSLR body is that it will be able to go places that other larger 4K cameras cannot, providing new ways of composing and capturing scenes. It is also compatible with the entire fleet of Canon EOS lenses already available, and perhaps already in ones arsenal. If looking for a powerful yet versatile rig that knows what a cinematographer wants and needs, then Canon answers the call with this impressive offering.
The EOS-1D C was built to shoot cinematic quality, in a compact and versatile EOS body. It is able to capture 4K (4096 x 2160), 24p (23.976) content directly to its on-board CF memory cards. It does this by using an 8-bit 4:2:2, high bit rate Motion JPEG compression scheme–allowing 4K content to be acquired in virtually any shooting environment, without an off-board external recorder.
Coupled with the camera’s small form factor, the EOS-1D C allows 4K recording in environments that would normally be impossible or that would require much larger cameras, crews and permits. It also allows filmmakers to be discreet in crowded or hostile shooting environments, on and in vehicles, or even in underwater housings.
In addition to its large pixel size–for outstanding still images and 4096 x 2160 video–the camera provides the serious photographer with a generous ergonomic design, along with a smart layout of the controls. Dual CF card slots ensure that every shot can be captured, while the magnesium alloy body is dust and weather resistant, allowing one to get the job done without hesitation, or worry.
Producing the selective focus and field of view that made filmmakers fall in love with the EOS 5D Mark II, the standard Full-Frame HD setting on the EOS-1D C takes advantage of the camera’s 36mm sensor width. This setting is ideal when filmmakers want to take full advantage of Canon’s EF and EF Cinema prime lenses to capture that unique and distinct full-frame look–though Canon’s EF Cinema zoom lenses require the Super 35mm Cropping setting, fixed focal length EF Cinema lenses will cover the area of a full-frame sensor.
As a new category of hybrid HDSLR cameras is created, capable of shooting 4K video–the motion picture industry standard–Canon and the EOS-1D C enter previously uncharted territory. Now cinematographers can shoot feature films from inside cars and planes, or documentaries using underwater housings–allowing a whole new perspective to be captured for the big screen.
Cinematic 4K Video
Putting the industry standard of 4K (4096 x 2160), 24p (23.976) video into an EOS-1D camera body revolutionizes the way feature films, documentaries, and television studios can record. Now instead of teams of workers, heavy and complicated equipment, and even permits just to use it all, one can get an enormous amount of versatility, mobility, and creative control without losing cinematic quality.
The 1D C can also simultaneously output a time code stamped, uncompressed 8-bit 4:2:2 Full HD signal for off-board recording–Clean HD video via HDMI. While recording in this high quality, however, roughly each minute of recorded content occupies 4GB of storage space. Therefore, a 64GB CF card can record approximately 16 minutes of 4K content so one will likely come to rely on the dual CF card slots as they fill up faster than HD video on previous DSLR cameras.
Full HD Recording
The EOS-1D C is capable of recording Full HD (1920 x 1080) content to on-board CF cards with a choice of frame rates (24p, 25p, 30p, 50p and 60p), in two distinct fields of view (Full-Frame HD and Super 35mm Crop). Both are recorded as 8-bit 4:2:0 H.264 based Full HD video, and can be recorded at a number of frame rates all the way up to 60 progressive frames per second (which requires no up scaling in post when dropped into a 1920 x 1080 timeline).
The 1D C’s Super 35mm Cropping setting matches the motion picture industry’s standard imaging format and angle of view when in a commercial or feature film environment. Using this setting will match the depth of field and angle of view used in virtually all digital cinema cameras on the market today (including the Canon EOS C500 and C300).

WeVideo Introduces Interactive Social Video Creation Environment for Music, Movie and Media Promotions at SXSW
(PRWEB) March 08, 2013
WeVideo, Inc., the world leading online video creation company, introduces its interactive social video creation environment for record labels, movie makers and media promoters from across the globe at this years South by Southwest in Austin Texas. The new WeVideo creation environment gives fans a brand-controlled, in-site/in-social environment where they can play with preloaded media as well as their own content, to create new fan-made videos to share with the world.
Revolutionizing Music, Movie and Media Promotion
Were at South by Southwest to introduce WeVideo to some of the biggest artists and movie promoters in the world, says Jostein Svendsen, WeVideo CEO and Co-Founder. Social video and interactive marketing represent a holy grail when it comes to marketing music and movies, and with the digital revolution in full swing, we think the market is ripe for tools like ours.
To provide fans with online video editing options, brand website owners embed a customized version of the WeVideo editor on their site, tailored by WeVideo to their needs. Fans then use pre-loaded content, or if the brand owner wants, they can use their own photos, videos and audio, to create a unique video they can share through designated social channels and on the brands website or social channels.
WeVideo has designed its platform to support customer-branded experiences for large organizations with many brands, who wish to harness the WeVideo platform for multiple, ongoing promotions across their brand portfolio. WeVideo works well for a variety of companies and organizations such as:
Film distribution companies planning promotions for multiple film releases throughout the year
Fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) companies running mobile/web promotions across brands representing hard, soft goods, consumables and more
Apparel companies considering mobile promotions across girl- or boy-focused product lines, tween or teen-focused brand categories
The WeVideo social video creation environment was utilized earlier this year by the band Coheed and Cambria with the launch of their new album, The Afterman: Ascension, in a make your own music video competition in which fans made their own creative versions of the song Dark Side of Me, weeks before the official release. The platform was also used last year in the launch of the biggest movie of 2012, and WeVideo has just received confirmation for use of the platform in a major upcoming expected 2013 blockbuster, soon to be announced.
Social video engagement is all about putting fans in touch with their favorite music, movies and brands, from the comfort of the brands website, Facebook or Youtube page, says Mark Floisand, Vice President of Marketing and Sales for WeVideo. Fans have always made their own versions of music and movie clips but now, with WeVideo, they have a fun, rights-cleared sandbox with pre-loaded music, movie clips, photos, titles and more. The content they can make with WeVideo is not only legal, its interactive, engaging and highly social, which works well for the fans, the artists and the industry.
Editing for Everyone – Filmmaking for the Mass Market
Along with the embedded editor for brands, WeVideo is also showing the audience at SXSW its new online video creation environment – a cloud-based video editor and management tool for individuals, that lets people edit together video clips or even make full-length movies with their video, pictures and audio from their mobile devices, cameras and even Facebook, Dropbox, Google Drive, and more.
The WeVideo Creation Environment is:
Cloud-based & Social: It works from any online computer and lets you share media and projects with friends.
Flexible: Users can switch between three editing modes, each with progressively more sophisticated editing options.
Free-to-Affordable: WeVideo Lite is available for free to individual users. Customers only pay for additional cloud storage or exporting videos in HD. Monthly and Annual subscription plans are available with more capacity.
Simple to Use, Yet Sophisticated: WeVideo also offers dozens of great looking themes that automatically apply filters, music, effects and transitions to a video, giving it a professional look with the click of a button.
Video creation is experiencing explosive growth, says Svendsen. With almost everyone carrying an HD camera in their pocket, we estimates that, in the U.S. alone, there are more than 100 million people capturing video but not editing, because video editing is viewed as time consuming and complicated. WeVideo wants to change this with a range of easy-to-use, powerful video creation tools that run in any web browser, from any online computer and now on mobile devices.
WeVideo In The Following Panels:
WeVideo will play key roles in two anticipated SXSW panels, where Svendsen and Floisand will offer industry insight around their platform and the social video market.
