A digital movie camera for digital cinematography is a motion picture camera that captures footage digitally rather than physical film, known as film stock . Different digital movie cameras output a variety of different acquisition formats . Cameras designed for domestic use have also been used for low-budget independent productions.
21-513: The Canon EOS C200 is a digital cinema camera in the Cinema EOS range. It was announced by Canon on May 31, 2017. It is available in two options: as the production-ready C200 with an EVF, LCD monitor, handle and handgrip accessories; or as the standalone camera body C200B . The EOS C200 records RAW in Canon's proprietary Cinema RAW Light video format — which is approximately 1/3 to 1/5
42-568: A 24p mode for compatibility with motion picture film cameras. The firmware update also modified the 30p mode to record 29.97 frame/s and the new 24p mode actually records 23.976 frame/s to have frame rates compatible with NTSC . Lastly, the update added manual control of the audio record levels and an official way to disable the automatic gain control. Following the success of the Canon Hack Development Kit (CHDK) for Canon's PowerShot cameras, third party firmware add-on
63-488: A MILC , was capable of 1080p/24 recording before the 5D Mark II officially gained this capability, the latter was the first full-frame DSLR to feature 1080p video recording. With these features, Canon 5D Mark II was able to compete with high-end digital movie cameras available that time. Its release started the trend of "DSLR revolution", significantly changing the world of independent filmmaking for upcoming years. The Canon PowerShot SX 1 IS followed with 1080p video in
84-602: A bridge digital camera soon after. The 16:9 aspect ratio portion of the sensor used in video mode is similar in sensitive area to a VistaVision 8/35 frame. This large sensor allows videos to be recorded with very shallow depth of field for a " film look ". The 21 megapixel sensor is downsampled to HD resolution by only using every third line and 4:2:0 chroma subsampling , leading to concern about Moiré patterns in recorded video. Video clips can be up to 4 GB in size, approximately 12 minutes of 1080p HD or 24 minutes of SD (640 x 480) footage. These limits stem from
105-609: A file size limit of 4 GB. Movie makers are pressing this camera into service as a low-cost way to shoot motion footage. The Canon EOS 7D is an APS-C HDSLR that was used to shoot the independent horror film Marianne and Sound of My Voice . Both cameras have been used together to shoot point-of-view (POV) action scenes in The Avengers due to the cameras being relatively cheap and small and, therefore, easily used to shoot different angles in tight locations. Canon EOS 5D Mark II The Canon EOS 5D Mark II
126-719: A stable output of uncompressed 14-Bit RAW video data onto fast UDMA 7 CF cards at almost HD resolution (1004p vs. 1080p at Full HD).

147-527: Is a stub . You can help Misplaced Pages by expanding it . Digital cinema camera Since the 2000s, digital movie cameras have become the dominant type of camera in the motion picture industry, replacing movie cameras that shoot on film. There are a number of movie cameras on the market designed specifically for high-end digital cinematography use. These cameras typically offer relatively large sensors, selectable frame rates, recording options with low compression ratios or, in some cases, no compression, and
168-536: Is a 21.0 effective megapixel full-frame CMOS digital single-lens reflex camera made by Canon , the first Canon EOS camera to have video recording capabilities. It succeeds the EOS 5D and was announced on 17 September 2008. On 2 March 2012, Canon announced the camera's successor: the Canon EOS 5D Mark III . On 24 December 2012, Canon Japan moved the camera to their "Old Products" list, effectively discontinuing
189-437: Is approximately 38 megabits per second (4.8 MB/s), while for SD it is approximately 17 megabits per second (2.2 MB/s). Although the internal microphone is mono, stereo audio is supported through the audio input jack. When recording for long periods, especially in warmer climates, increased video noise may occur due to CMOS overheating. Rolling shutter, a phenomenon where vertical lines look bent on moving objects, when
210-610: The AG-DVX100 , which was the first affordable camcorder to support progressive scan at 24 frames per second on its 60Hz version, duplicating the motion characteristics of film and allowing for easier transfers to film. Sony , JVC and Canon brought high-definition video acquisition to the consumer and prosumer markets with the HDV format. HDV cameras sold with a wide range of capabilities. Many support progressive shooting modes, and some have sensors with full 1920x1080 resolution (though
231-479: The 4 GB maximum file size supported by the FAT32 filesystem format used on Compact Flash cards. The camera also imposes a hard maximum clip length of 29 minutes 59 seconds if the 4 GB limit has not already been reached. Video and audio is recorded to QuickTime (MOV) container files with H.264/MPEG-4 (Base Profile @ L5) compressed video and uncompressed 48 kHz/16-bit PCM audio. The bitrate for 1080p

In addition, some Canon and JVC HDV camcorders have the ability to use high-quality interchangeable lenses, rather than the fixed lenses that are included with most prosumer cameras. The Canon EOS 5D Mark II is a " full-frame " format HDSLR camera capable of recording 1080p video at 24, 25 or 30 frames per second, with
273-436: The ability to use high-quality optics. Some of the cameras are expensive, and some are only available to rent. Some of the most used professional digital movie cameras include: Independent movie-makers have also pressed low-cost consumer and hybrid prosumer cameras into service for digital cinematography. Though image quality is typically much lower than what can be produced with professional digital cinematography cameras,
294-444: The camera is in motion is a significant issue with the Canon 5D Mark II. The EOS 5D Mark II is capable of video recording in low-light situations and it is sold for a relatively low price, compared with professional video cameras. For the first eighteen months of its release, the camera only had a 30 frame per second (30p) video mode. On 15 March 2010, Canon released a firmware upgrade to add a 25p mode for PAL format compatibility and
315-499: The camera. The 5D Mark II is the first camera in the EOS line to provide video recording functions. Still photography during video recording is possible, but the camera suspends recording video until the final still frame is captured. The lithium-ion battery for the 5D Mark II (LP-E6) has an 1800 mAh capacity. Each battery contains a microchip with a unique identifier for reporting charge status and battery health for display on
336-414: The camera. The 5D Mark II's "Battery Info" screen can track battery health and shooting history for up to six LP-E6 batteries. The camera has native ISO values of 100 multiplied by a power of 2; other ISO values are obtained by a digital exposure push (ISO values that are multiples of 125) or digital exposure pull (ISO values that are multiples of 160). The digital exposure push ISO is 1/3 stop greater than
357-621: The early 2000s. Steven Soderbergh used the Canon XL-1s MiniDV camera while shooting Full Frontal . The Danny Boyle directed British horror film, 28 Days Later was also shot on MiniDV using the Canon XL-1 , albeit with traditional Panavision 35mm film lenses. One of the first MiniDV cameras used on a feature film was the Sony VX-1000, which was used to shoot Spike Lee 's Bamboozled . In 2002, Panasonic released

399-519: The native ISO, and a digital exposure pull ISO is 1/3 stop less than the native ISO. The digital exposure push ISO settings produce more noise than the native settings with a reduced dynamic range , and the digital exposure pull ISO settings produce less noise than the native settings. While the Nikon D90 was the first DSLR to shoot 720p high-definition video , and the Panasonic GH1 ,
420-425: The technology has steadily improved, most significantly in the last several years with the arrival of high-definition cameras in this market. These inexpensive cameras are limited by their relatively high compression ratios, their small sensors, and the quality of their optics. Many also have integrated lenses which cannot be changed. MiniDV was the predominant standard definition consumer video acquisition format in
441-475: Was also produced for the 5D Mark II. The Magic Lantern firmware add-on provides many additional video and cinematography related controls and meters such as false colors, and zebra stripes for exposure control, depth of field estimates via peaking filters, audio VU meters and disables the automatic gain control on the microphone input (manual gain control for microphone input has since been added to Canon's official firmware, as noted above). It also provides
