Canon XF105 review
Compact in size, light weight and fully featured, the Canon XF105
Professional Camcorder can be tailored to fit a wide range of individual
needs. While sharing many of the capabilities of the Canon XF305 and XF300
Professional Camcorders, including the Canon XF Codec and Compact Flash
(CF) recording, the XF105 offers some exciting new features of its
own.Whether used as a companion to the XF305 or XF300 or as a standalone
camcorder, the XF105 is geared for a wide range of applications where high
image quality, extreme portability, and efficient workflow are of the
utmost importance. And with infrared recording and true stereoscopic 3-D
production capabilities, the XF105 allows users to explore new creative
outlets and emerging markets.The XF105 utilizes Canon’s XF Codec –
a file-based MPEG-2 compression with an MXF File Wrapper that ensures the
widest compatibility with existing industry infrastructure, metadata and
non-linear editing (NLE) systems. The codec’s 4:2:2 colour sampling
provides ultra-fine transitions in tone and colour for maintaining the
highest image quality needed for advanced post production processing.The
XF105’s newly developed Genuine Canon 10x HD Video Lens along with a
Canon native 1920 x 1080 CMOS Image Sensor delivers exceptional image
quality. The XF105 also offers multiple recording bit rates, resolutions
and variable frame rates to expand creative flexibility, allowing users to
work in virtually any production environment.Incorporating
industry-standard HD-SDI output, genlock input SMPTE time code input/output
terminals makes the Canon XF105 perfectly matched for live application and
multi-camera shooting.
