Info

Step up to EOS camera quality in a simple and easy-to-use package! The EOS M10 camera combines a lightweight, compact design with the power and image quality EOS cameras are known for along with the versatility of interchangeable lenses. Inside is an 18.0 Megapixel CMOS (APS-C) sensor that’s paired with the DIGIC 6 Image Processor to help capture colorful, detailed videos and photos, even in low-light situations. To help expand creative opportunities, the EOS M10 is compatible with a wide range of compact EF-M lenses specially designed for EOS M series digital cameras, and the extensive range of EF* and EF-S* lenses used with Canon’s DSLR cameras. It also has easy-to-use and automatic settings like the innovative Creative Assist to simplify photo adjustments and help ensure your images are how you want them. Self Portrait mode extends that assistance to help you grab great selfies by adjusting settings that smooth skin tones and artistically blur backgrounds. If it’s too dark for a normal photo, a built-in pop-up flash lights up dark spaces. All these powerful features combine to make the EOS M10 worthy of your attention, while being conveniently wrapped in a slim, stylish camera.

Legendary Image Quality in the Palm of Your Hand

The EOS M10 camera features a lightweight, comfortably designed body that’s easy to hold and take with you. From overseas vacations to backyard family gatherings, the EOS M10’s compact size means it can easily be on hand, without getting in the way. A built-in thumb grip also lets you grasp the body securely, while the rounded edges make holding the camera easier when recording long video clips. All this while still featuring the image quality for which Canon EOS cameras are so well known.

Superb Detail With Minimal Noise

The 18.0 Megapixel CMOS sensor captures lots of detail with very little image noise. The sensor itself is APS-C type, which is the same size as the sensor found in Canon’s EOS Rebel series of cameras. The high resolution means you can crop the image to focus on one section, or have enough detail to print large photos to display or give to your family and friends. An ISO range of 100–12800 (expandable to 25600) lets you capture images on bright sunny beaches and darkened streets.

Fast Focus

Life happens fast, and there’s little worse than missing out on capturing that perfect moment because the camera was too slow to focus. The EOS M10 camera uses Canon’s Hybrid CMOS AF II autofocus system, which measures up to 49 different points in an image quickly and accurately to help get it in focus. In addition, face detection and object tracking help keep the subject of your photo focused, even if they move. What’s more, the EOS M10 is compatible with all EF-M lenses, which feature an AF+MF mode that lets you easily combine the speed of autofocus with the creative flourish possible with manual focus.

Get the Shot You Want, at Any Angle

It’s vital to see if you’ve composed the photo you want. The EOS M10 camera’s 3.0-inch touch screen has 1.04 million pixels, letting you preview images in high detail. It can pivot a full 180°, meaning you can capture a unique dog’s-eye-view of the world or flip the screen up to get that epic selfie.

Superb Moviemaking Made Easy

The EOS M10 camera can capture 1920×1080 Full HD video at frame rates of both 24p and 30p, and can record in MP4 format for easy sharing online.

Moviemaking Made Easy with Manual Movie Control

The EOS M10 camera is a fine moviemaking tool. With touch-activated AF and a number of manual controls available, it’s easy to make intuitive setting adjustments silently and on the fly using the EOS M10’s dials and touch operations.

Canon ME20F-SHN http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/18299/canon-me20f-shn Wed, 22 Nov 2017 05:49:00 +0000 Vitaliy_Kiselev 18299@/talks/discussions image

ME20F-SHN key features:

  • Sharp, low noise colour video in extreme low light
  • Network capable remote configuration and monitoring
  • Supports a wide range of surveillance applications
  • High-quality Full HD output
  • Flexible installation

Canon Europe, world leader in imaging solutions, today announces the launch of the ME20F-SHN, a low light network camera with remarkable performance. As a sister product to the ME20F-SH, the ME20F-SHN which now features network capability, further enhances Canon’s Multiple Purpose camera line-up with a solid proposition in producing full colour and Full HD resolution images in limited light scenarios. Perfect for critical surveillance operations, the ME20F-SHN packs incredible low light performance, network capability and built-in video analytics into a lightweight and compact body.

Incredible low-light performance

Equipped with a 2.26MP Full Frame 35mm CMOS sensor and DIGIC DV 4 processor, the ME20F-SHN delivers sharp, low noise, Full HD colour video in extreme low light conditions. The sensor’s pixels and readout circuitry use Canon’s proprietary technologies to achieve both reduced noise and exceptionally high sensitivity. With a maximum ISO in excess of 4 million (+75db), which delivers amazing low-light sensitivity, the ME20F-SHN can capture subjects illuminated with less than 0.0005 lux. Even greater detail can be captured in low-light environments by removing the IR cut filter when shooting in infrared mode.

Much like Canon’s Cinema EOS range, this network camera offers Canon Log and Wide DR from the Custom Picture menu, which enables a wide dynamic range of up to 12 Stops (800%), delivering high-quality images across a range of lighting scenarios. The Custom Picture menu has been upgraded, with the addition of the Crisp Img function, which obtains sharp images in well-lit environments and low noise image under low light conditions. These features are invaluable for users needing to capture clear and accurate images.

Enhanced network capability for surveillance applications

Featuring Ethernet, 3G/HD-SDI and HDMI ports, the ME20F-SHN caters for a plethora of video outputs based on users’ application requirements. For local monitoring, the ME20F-SHN has 3G/HD-SDI and HDMI ports; while an Ethernet connection enables remote operation of camera settings, monitoring and recording via web browsers, mobile devices or other video management software. The microSD card slot supports record and playback directly from a microSD card. For unmanned and cost-efficient surveillance, the 6 built-in video analytics functions and Alarm I/O interface enables automated recording and output to external devices triggered by video motion detection and alarm input.

With the Area-specific Data Size Reduction (ADSR) function, the ME20F-SHN enables users to capture absolute detail in selected areas of interest while reducing bit-rates in the other areas of the image to save network bandwidth. For ease of integration into existing video surveillance systems, the ME20F-SHN supports a wide range of video management software through Canon WebView and ONVIF protocols.

Flexible installation capabilities

Operators can select the ideal lens for each shooting and equipment scenario, taking aspects such as angle of view and level of brightness into account. Featuring an EF mount with Cinema Lock, the ME20F-SHN is compatible with a broad range of lenses across the Canon line-up, including zooms, primes and selected Cine Servo lenses for greater control. With PoE+ support, the data transmission via Ethernet and power supply are provided with a single LAN cable, which facilitates simple and rapid installation of the camera. The compact body and lightweight design are invaluable for users needing both a fixed and portable camera.

GH2 replacement in a multicam shoot. Only using HDMI output. t5i? 1D? D5? http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/16807/gh2-replacement-in-a-multicam-shoot.-only-using-hdmi-output.-t5i-1d-d5 Wed, 26 Apr 2017 07:22:01 +0000 DNL 16807@/talks/discussions We have three GH2s in a mulitcam live switched set-up. One of our GH2's HDMI port died. We are not recording inside the camera; we are just using the HDMI output (which is converted to 1080i SDI by a Blackmagic converter) and run into a TriCaster, a video broadcasting device.

We need to replace the GH2 from the following list of Canons: t5i, D5, 1D. Is it possible to convert the HDMI output of any of these cameras like I can with the GH2: HDMI to 1080i via a Blackmagic HDMI to SDI converter?

I tried a t5i as a substitute. The HDMI video converts to SDI and I can run the video signal into the TriCaster, but the t5i screen goes black so the camera person can't see what they are doing. I have the t5i set to "live" (doesn't seem to matter) and dialed to the movie position.

I have access to a D5 and a 1D. Will either of these cameras work? Can I get the t5i to work? What settings do I need to have? The camera person needs to be able to see what they are shooting on the camera's LCD screen.

Raw video on Canon 5d Mark 3 and other cameras using liveview framebuffer http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/6823/raw-video-on-canon-5d-mark-3-and-other-cameras-using-liveview-framebuffer- Sat, 27 Apr 2013 02:39:34 +0000 bannedindv 6823@/talks/discussions Some of the Devs at Magic Lantern are discussing the ability to write DNG directly from the LiveView Framebuffer, and it seems its in an alpha stage right now...not up to 24 fps, and not for a long duration...

Could be interesting if nothing else, just the fact that they can make it write DNGs is a pretty crazy start.

Canon5D Mk III 4k Magic Lantern http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/16675/canon5d-mk-iii-4k-magic-lantern Sat, 01 Apr 2017 20:38:00 +0000 JanH 16675@/talks/discussions I just found this over on Andrew Reid's site. Initially thought it might be an April fool's joke - but apparently not. The images from the camera look amazing (my non-technical evaluation!).

http://www.eoshd.com/2017/04/super-35mm-4k-comes-canon-5d-mark-iii-new-magic-lantern-module-real/

The Canon 5D Mark III will now record 4K, raw thanks to A1ex and his team at ML. The resolutions available are: 1920×960 @ 50p (both 1:1 crop and full-frame – 3×3 pixel binning) 1920×800 @ 60p (same as above) 1920×1080 @ 45p and 48p (3×3 binning) 1920×1920 @ 24p (1:1 square crop) 3072×1920 @ 24p (1:1 crop) 3840×1600 @ 24p (1:1 crop) 4096×2560 @ 12.5p (1:1 crop) 4096×1440 @ 25p (1:1 crop)

Limitations currently exist, of course (no sound is recorded and B/W display) but recording time seems very useful (no limits quoted, if they exist.)

Canon 50D Shines with Raw Magic Lantern.. http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/10244/canon-50d-shines-with-raw-magic-lantern..- Thu, 24 Apr 2014 16:13:37 +0000 TrackZillas 10244@/talks/discussions Just Wrapped-up a music video using solely the Canon 50D with Magic Lantern RAW just to see how far I can push the camera. The images out of the camera amazed me, and my team & I were very glad we shot the whole Video on it. A couple week points the aliasing & the high noise @ High ISO other than that very nice camera.

Now FREE: Cook Picture Styles for Canon DSLR http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/11377/now-free-cook-picture-styles-for-canon-dslr Wed, 24 Sep 2014 09:01:40 +0000 apefos 11377@/talks/discussions Cook Picture Styles for Canon DSLR

Download link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/g83l5b4d15id33n/AADQf66vIYsgTByyTkLRXW5wa?dl=0

Cook Picture Styles was the result of more than one year of developing. to get the best possible dynamic range from Canon DSLR and also the best real world colors. without flat look, without the need of post production grading, without hurt the textures in the image, without gradient banding. Cook Picture Styes are free for use and distribution.

Read instructions below to get the best from it.

_DPP = to be used in digital photo professional software

_CAM = to be used inside the camera

there are different versions for camera and DPP software due to the camera has different color rendition compared to DPP in computer. using DPP versions on camera will introduce color banding, using camera versions in DPP will introduce color banding. so use CAM versions in camera and DPP versions for RAW photos in computer.

Vimeo group, be welcome to join: https://vimeo.com/groups/228980

Demo Videos:

Instructions:

FOR USE IN CAMERA: (the -h versions are just for use in dpp, they do not do significant difference in camera. there is the +h versions to be used in camera which increases the highlight preservation.)

Install the following versions in camera: (Use Canon EOS Utility to load them via USB cable)

Cook1_cam, Cook3_cam, Cook5+h_cam,

or

cook2_cam, cook4_cam, cook6+h_cam,

(after testing these to perceive the differences you can load others if you prefer, always _cam versions. 0 to 6 means the shadow lifting amount, +h means more highlight preservation but reduces textures a little bit), for the 600D T3i the shadow lifting up to 6 works ok, for the 5D Mark III the maximum recomended shadow lifting amount is 5, avoid loading the versions 6 to the 5D Mark III,

Confirm in camera if the sliders are in default position for each version. (sharpness, contrast, saturation, tone).

Enable HTP when there is highlights in image, it helps. (highlight tone priority).

Always disable Auto Lighting Optimizer, it does not work good with custom picture style curves.

Choose from them considering the shadow/highlight in the scene

Just shadows = Cook0, 1 or 2

Light and shadows = Cook2, 3 or 4

Shadow/Highlight = Cook4, 5 or 6

you can use the versions 5 or 6 all the time, but increase contrast when needed (try from -2 to +2)

when there is more highlights use the +h versions and enable HTP.

Do the following for each scene (after choose the version):

If you use Variable ND or Polarizer filter, rotate it to find better balance between shadow/highlight.

Set correct exposure for Aperture, Shutter and ISO.

Set correct white balance for Kelvin and Green/Magenta bias.

Adjust contrast slider from -2 to +2 untill dynamic range is good but removing the flat look. Try to keep good blacks without the grey look from flat images and without make the blacks too much deep.

if you want to use cook5 or cook6 all the time, increase contrast to avoid the flat look when needed.

Adjust the saturation slider to get a good balance with contrast. If you increase contrast, decrease saturation. If you decrease contrast, increase saturation.

Keep Tone Slider as default.

Sharpness at default (2) is recomended, more than this will increase halos, less than this will deliver a soft image.

The cook does not increase noise so much compared to Canon picture styles. Neatvideo cleans it pretty good. A tip is to disable all luminance spatial denoise and increase temporal denoise. The chrominance spatial denoise can be increased to remove chroma noise. sharpening in Neatvideo gives better results than sharpen filters in timeine, less pixelation. sharpening with neatvideo can deliver exellent results for Canon DSLR, tweak it carefuly. The higher the shadow lifting amount in cook (from 3 to 6) are better for post production sharpening, less halos. the use of the Mosaic Enginnering VAF anti aliasing anti moire filter works great with Cook Picture Styles.

FOR USE IN COMPUTER IN DPP SOFTWARE:

Open the RAW photo in DPP software

Open the Tools Pallete

Disable Auto Lighting Optimizer in Tools Pallete

Load the version Cook0_dpp

Adjust exposure (brigthness) in Tools Pallete step by step, do this to get good exposure and good edges/tones transitions in highlights. See image in 100% to perceive the edges/tones transitions and see all the image to perceive exposure.

Adjust contrast slider to get a good blacks and remove flat look

Adjust saturation

Now after these first adjusts try other versions from 0 to 6 until perceive the best one to lift the shadows

If highlight preservation is not needed use versions with -h, versions -h keep whites up to 255

Cook your images and enjoy!

Thanks
