The camera also includes NDI|HX support without requiring a separate license, allowing you to drop the camera into your existing NDI network with minimal configuration.
Advanced 4K UHD CMOS Image Sensor
For incredibly sharp and detailed high-definition video recording, the CR-X300 features a 1/2.3-inch, approximately effective 8.29MP UHD 4K CMOS Pro Image Sensor that captures 3840 x 2160 pixels. Thanks to the sensor's high sensitivity, the CR-X300 helps provide vivid, accurate video through an excellent signal-to-noise ratio.
DIG!C DV 6 Image Processor
Get improved picture quality for both UHD 4K video and Full HD with the oversampled HD processing, along with Canon's autofocus logic.
4K29.97 and 1080p59.94 4:2:2 10-Bit Output
6D-SDI and HDMI terminals allow for output that supports integration into professional workflows, making it particularly useful for broadcast applications. The 6G-SDI and HDMI outputs provide an uncompressed signal at 3840 x 2160 or 1920 x 1080 resolution with 4:2:2 color sampling and 10-bit color depth, perfect for demanding television broadcast applications.
Hybrid AF
The CR-X300 is equipped with "Hybrid AF". Hybrid AF is an autofocus system that combines high-precision contrast AF technology and the high-speed phase-difference AF technology to confirm auto focus from the camera. This hybrid autofocus system achieves auto focus faster and more reliably compared to contrast auto focus alone. The CR-X300 features Face Detection and Tracking functions which detects faces and automatically adjusts focus when a human is detected within the frame.
Advanced Full HD Image Quality
Full HD image quality from our CR-X300 is now even better thanks to oversampling HD processing, which enables Full HD by effectively utilizing the outstanding capabilities of the UHD 4K CMOS sensor.
Four Scene Modes for Impressive Video
There are four types of scene modes: Portrait mode, which exhibits a blurred background while subject is in sharp focus, Sports mode, which enhances capture of moving objects, Low Light mode, which enhances capture of bright images even in dark places, and Spotlight mode, which enhances capture of beautiful images of spotlighted objects.
20x Zoom Range
The CR-X300 features a genuine Canon 20x 4K optical zoom lens that provides a highly versatile zoom range with a 35mm equivalent of 29.3 to 601mm to help capture subjects at a variety of distances. Furthermore, the CR-X300 exhibits a 65.6° angle of view when video output is set to UHD 4K and a 63.5° angle of view when video output is set to full HD. This allows operators to capture wider angles of view, which could potentially reduce the amount of cameras needed for a production, reducing overall costs of the project.
20x Digital Zoom
When combined with a digital 20x zoom, the camera can achieve super-telephoto shooting with a maximum 400x zoom (Optical 20x + Digital 20x).
Image Stabilization Options with Two Types of IS Modes
In addition to the Standard optical IS mode, CR-X300 is also equipped with the powered IS mode that compensates for blurring during telephoto shooting.
6G-SDI and HDMI Outputs
The CR-X300 features industry-standard 6G-SDI and HDMI video outputs for easy integration into professional video environments. With these interfaces, the user can achieve of output of up to 4K UHD at 29.97p or Full HD at up to 59.94p. Furthermore, the CR-X300 is equipped with a built-in weatherproof microphone that can be utilized to capture audio.
PoE++ Single Cable Solution
PoE++ (802.3bt compliant) support allows for an easy, single-cable solution. More specifically, this allows for quicker, and potentially lower-cost installations, with one cable providing any combination of power, control, and video feed over a standard IP connection.
LAN and Serial Control
The CR-X300 can be controlled by a variety of methods, including serial-based controllers, or by IP-based controllers. These controllers can be hardware or software based offering tremendous flexibility to fit into a variety of production workflows.
IP System
The CR-X300 is equipped with an RJ45 interface purposed for IP communication, which supports high-resolution videos for distribution. The CR-X300 supports multiple protocols that can be utilized for video, audio and control. The CR-X300 can also be combined with third-party equipment for control purposes. This IP system can contribute to an efficient and labor-saving camera operations for the field of video production, broadcasting, and more.
IP Multi-Stream Support
The CR-X300 can simultaneously distribute video to multiple protocols via IP. Simultaneous distribution is also known as multi-stream, and the CR-X300 can distribute a total of three video streams simultaneously.
