THE NEW FLAGSHIP PROFESSIONAL CAMCORDER

WITH HDR RECORDING

The new XF705 Professional Camcorder puts impressive 4K UHD 4:2:2 10-bit recording capabilities into

a compact and portable design, and is the first Canon camcorder to adopt the H.265/HEVC codec.

Featuring a 1.0-inch CMOS sensor, HDR (HLG/PQ) recording, Dual Pixel CMOS AF and more, the XF705

is ideal for capturing news, documentaries, sports and other events.

4K UHD Lens with Optical Image Stabilization

The XF705 Professional Camcorder uses a Genuine Canon
15x optical 4K zoom lens and incorporates a 5-axis Optical
Image Stabilization system. The lens maintains 4K UHD
quality throughout the entire zoom range and offers a focal
length range of 25.5 to 382.5mm (35mm film equivalent).

1.0-inch CMOS Sensor and
Dual DIGIC DV 6 Image Processors

The XF705 Professional Camcorder features a Canon

1.0-inch 4K UHD CMOS image sensor and dual DIGIC
DV 6 Image Processors, providing high-quality 4K UHD
video capture up to 60p.

4K UHD 59.94p 4:2:2 10-bit Recording

The XF705 Professional Camcorder supports
4K UHD 59.94p 4:2:2 10-bit recording in XF-HEVC
(4:2:2 10-bit) or XF-AVC (4:2:0 8-bit) compression
for natural and realistic 4K video production.

HDR Recording (HLG and PQ Formats)

HDR recording is available in Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) and Perceptual
Quantization (PQ) formats. This helps ensure full color rendition and
wide latitude with a much greater range from black to pure white – ideal
for live streams, broadcasts and post-production projects.
