Canon will be updating the Canon Cinema EOS C200 in or around April ahead of NAB 2021. The new camera will share some things with the Cinema EOS C300 Mark III.
Canon Cinema EOS C200 Mark II Specifications:
- Same sensor as the Cinema EOS C300 Mark III
- RAW Recording
- 4:2:2 10-bit
- 4K 60P
- 2K 120P
- More a unibody design than the modular design of the C300 Mark III
More to come…

EF, PL, RF, EF-M, and FD.
The regular C200 costs exactly the same as C70 which has DGO.
Canon said they were going to lower the price of C200 but my guess is that they mean Mark I.
Canon needs something with RAW in this price range to fight the RED Komodo 6K.
I'd be curious to know why they wouldn't just do an RF mount and make official adaptors for PL and FD. "Swappable" seems a bit too fiddly for Canon and would overcomplicate things considering how tech heavy the new RF lenses are.
Overall, a new EF-mount anything is a bit of a head scratcher considering the cross-compatability of EF and RF.
What would be really cool, I think, is a an RF to RF Speedbooster. Although maybe they might be concerned with people forgoing the R5/R6 for the R/RP + speedbooster.
It also overlaps with the earlier EOS C50 rumour which suggested a C200 sensor, but maybe that's how the C200 sensor lives on.
NAB is moved from april to 09.10. und 13.10.2021 in Las Vegas.
