This new RF mount is featured in the EOS C70, and allows filmmakers to also benefit from the amazing optics and high-performance the RF system brings.
Short Back Focus System
Having a shorter flange back distance of approx. 20mm (which is less than half of the distance on DSLR cameras), allows lenses to fit closer to the focal plane of the camera’s sensor. This short back focus not only allows the camera body design to be more compact, but also gives more freedom for the optical system to be utilised for corner-to-corner sharpness.
12-Pin Data Communication System
The RF mount communication system utilises multiple channels dedicated to specific functions; its revolutionary data system enhances lens and camera cooperation and functionality.
Smooth aperture control, broader area AF and improved focus precision, plus highly sophisticated optical correction and improved image stabilisation are the result.
In the first Canon EOS R5 video shoots, Martin Bissig and Ivan D’Antonio explored how its 8K capabilities reduce shooting time and expand creative options.
