Canon XF405 Professional Camcorder in Detail |
|
Newly developed 15x 4K zoom lens The XF405 features a new 4K 15x zoom lens which has been designed to support the large 1.0-Type CMOS sensor. The lens is slim and compact, yet exceptionally powerful and flexible. With improved 25.5mm wide-angle coverage and a zoom capable of up to 382.5mm (35mm equivalent), it can cover a range of shooting situations and this performance is further enhanced by supplied wide-angle and teleConverter lenses to increase focal length coverage even further without sacrificing 4K quality. Using the CMOS sensor in FHD, it possible to get even more from the lens, up to 30x zoom capability with no loss of image quality. Newly developed 4K 1.0-Type CMOS sensor with Dual Pixel CMOS AF The XF405 has a new 1.0-Inch Type CMOS Sensor which delivers incredible levels of detail even in low light. The advantage of a larger sensor means a greater depth-of-field performance, allowing creative filming making full use of focus blur or bokeh' for more realistic, immersive footage. The CMOS sensor technology has been perfected in Canon's EOS DSLRs and Cinema EOS cameras and for the first time it is now available in a camcorder of this size. Newly developed Dual DIGIC DV6 Featuring two high speed DiGIC DV 6 processors, newly developed for the XF405, the camcorder offers blistering performance. The outstanding processing capability provided by two DIGIC DV 6 processors, newly developed for the XF405, provides enhanced image reproduction such as smooth gradation and faithful colour reproduction with support for recording at higher data rates. The sensor and processor work together to eliminate more camera shake, augmenting a highly effective Optical IS system. 4K UHD/50P recording on SD cards with high frame rates • The XF405 supports UHD/50P MP4 and XF-AVC format (150Mbps) recording along with additional XF-AVC support coming via a firmware update in 2018.

Compact and lightweight body, professional operability • Compact in size, lightweight and fully featured, the XF405 can meet a wide range of individual needs. |
Our Verdict
The Canon XF405 is a camcorder offering a compact solution for broadcast operations, packing in a large amount of features and technologies ensuring those on the move can deliver the highest quality video output.
Network capabilities will allow for FTP upload via either the included ethernet port or wireless connectivity options - meaning breaking news can be delivered post-haste to where it needs to go to plus the 3G-SDI output is ideal for broadcast van connectivity too.
The XF405 can output 4K at 50p in MP4 format direct to SD card, as well as in XF-AVC format at 150Mbps - an impressive performance for a camcorder that is as compact as this.
It isn't just about file formats though, there is a newly designed image processor working in conjunction with a 4K lens plus a host of other smaller features to boost fidelity - technologies include 5-axis image stabilisation, built-in ND filters (2, 4 and 6 stops) and Super UD elements within the lens too.
