Canon’s BSC booth this year is featuring two new cameras, the EOS C500 Mark II and the very new EOS-ID X Mark III. You’ll also be able to see Canon’s other cinema products, including the recently announced Sumire Prime cine lenses – the brand’s first prime cine lenses with a PL mount – offering a delicate, velvety nuance when the aperture is wide open, subtly modifying the textural renderings of the human face close-up. Visitors will also be able to get their hands on the UHDgc series of portable zoom 4K UHD broadcast lenses, the CJ18ex28B and CJ15ex8.5B; and highly compact 4K camcorders, XA55/50/A40. As always, experts will be on hand to answer any questions about all the exciting products on show at the Canon booth.
