midluk said:If they need a hardware modification for C-Log, that would likely be a complete replacement of the main board and not for free. Or there is an extension port and some free space to insert a new board to provide some functionality.
But perhaps the hardware modification is for some other feature announced at the same time, like a stronger motor for the mirror for more fps. Or a dedicated crypto processor for image encryption and signing in camera.
Or even no actual hardware modification, but Canon takes some money for the update (I hope further updates can then be performed at home).
proper C-LOG is probably more than hardware. Reading the C300 whitepaper a while ago, I seem to recall that CLOG was an entirely different image pipeline - it basically has to read the raw data, and profile / compressing it differently.
in other words, you can't simply put a flat profile on the video stream and call it a day.
