 Hey, what is up? My name is Rebedium. Today we're looking at this camera, the Canon XC10. It's small. It has a lens. It has a body. It has a handle. The lens doesn't come off. So a couple of months ago, I was looking to shoot a long-form sort of demonstration video in New York City and the C200 was going to be my A camera and then I was looking around for a B camera. I thought of using my 5D Mark III but it doesn't shoot C-Log. But most importantly, it isn't 4K so I couldn't leave the frame wide and then crop in and post when I wanted a tighter shot. I would have had to sit there zooming and zooming out the entire time. I looked at the 1DX and 1DC sort of cameras, the DSLR form-facted cinema cameras that do shoot 4K, but their 4K is cropped in there. They also have limits on the amount of video and time you can record and plus they're really expensive. They're almost the price of the C200. That brought me to these little cameras. There's the XC10, which is this one, and there's the XC15, which is a newer version. It has the same chip. It has a lot of the same controls. It just has a it has two important differences. One is a waveform monitor on the screen and the other one is a little box that sits on the cold shoe mount here and gives you XLR audio inputs. I wasn't using audio and I was going to expose off the C200. So I didn't need the waveform at particular time. So I got the XC10. It is a really nifty little camera. It shoots. It fits in your hand. It has this rotating side grip for very similar to the C version. It has this articulating touchscreen LCD. Interestingly, it comes with the 35mm equivalent of a 24 to 240mm lens that's set to the camera. It's not interchangeable lens. It has a very small chip in it and these are 35 equivalents. It's actually something like a 10mm to a 60mm lens. It takes LP6s just like the stills camera 5D Mark III. It shoots 4K, shoots 2K to SD cards, but shoots 4K to C-Fast cards. Same as the C200 does for its RAW, which is kind of interesting. Has internal mic, has face chasing auto focus that you can turn on and off. It has mic in. It has HDMI out. It has DC in, headphone jack. For what this camera was new, it's like $2,000. It packs a lot of punch. I was really curious to get it and to test it and to see if it did what I wanted it to do. So first, the advantages. The advantages are it's very small. It's very light. It shoots a long time for what you have. It shoots at very good quality in Canon's proprietary wrapper format. I think it's 300 megabits per second. Pretty much a made to measure B camera for the C series. If you have a C100, C300, C200, you need that second angle. You need that top down shot bolt that's right to the top of a C stand to have a top down product shot like I've used before here. You know, just a safety camera so that if for some crazy reason you run out of batteries or the car jams or something goes terribly wrong with your camera that you have a second camera with you at all times to get that shot if you need it. This is this is a pretty good solution. You have an image stabilizer. You actually have three stops of ND in here. I'm not quite sure how that works. I guess there's a little tiny little sunglasses that drops down in front of the sensor, which came in really handy when you were shooting outside and wanted to keep the aperture low. Speaking of aperture, this is a not a fixed F stop lens. It goes from two eight when it's the widest all the way to five six when it's the closest or the longest. So you are going to see as you zoom in, you are going to see if you're wide open, the image grow darker. That's not ideal. That's probably one of the that's probably one of the downsides to this. Another downside is the C fast card aspect. If you want to shoot for a couple of hours on this, you're going to go out, you're going to spend $2,000 on the camera and then go out and spend almost another $1,000 on two 256 gig C fast cards. I guess the the form factor is so small that they weren't able to put in enough processing power to bring the size of the files down and put it onto the SD card. So we're stuck with C fast cards. But if you have them like I have them for the C 200 anyway, it's not that big a deal. I found it to be a perfect gimbal camera because it has a screen built in. It's small, it's light. It's pretty wide at 24 mil. It's, you know, perfect gimbal sort of size. If you could take this off, that'd be great. But it's what gives the power to the camera. So it is a little bit left weighted. You can see here that the center of gravity is sort of not right over the lens, but a little bit this way. I tried it on the Tilda gravity and it was phenomenal. Actually, you could, you know, it really was able to manipulate it with no trouble at all and get very, very smooth motion in 4K C log that you can cut straight into your videos. Matching this with the C 200 wasn't as easy as I first thought it would be. You do need to do a little bit more finicking in post to get the colors to match. It isn't a case of drag and drop, even if you're using C log or C log to like I am on the C 200 and C log on this, they're just a little bit different. They're different chips. It's much closer than trying to match the 5D Mark III non-C log, you know, Rec 709 color space to a C log color space on the C 200. That's my sum up of the Canon XC 10. Hope you dug it. There will be, I believe, an XC 20 coming out. There's also a patent that people have found on the Internet for a movable lens version of this. I'd be kind of tempted to get that one, except for the fact that you then now spending thousands of dollars of lenses on your B camera. Whereas, you know, this lens is it's a Canon lens. It looks good. It works pretty well. I think you can overthink B camera and get carried away. Best when you just keep it simple, use it for a few shots. It's a million times better than a GoPro or an iPhone shot fits much better into my workflow and yeah, happy with it. Thanks, Canon, for the lens of the camera. That's my review of the Canon XC 10. Thanks for watching. I will see you next time.
