Canon EOS C100 Guida utente
Basic guide to Canon EOS C100 2017
This guide is designed to take you through the basic and essential functions of
the Canon C100 camcorder.
Battery insertion
Have the camera in the off position. The power switch is on the upper left
hand side of the body as you look at the back of the camera.
The battery can only be inserted one way. If force is used then damage
can be made to the battery or camera.
Insert the battery by sliding it in the direction of the arrow until it clicks
into place.
Battery removal
Turn off the camera.
Remove the battery by sliding the battery release lever forward and
removing the battery as shown by the arrow below. While holding the
lever down slide the battery to the right and out.
Turning camera on
There are two modes. CAMERA for recording and MEDIA for playback.
Turn the switch to CAMERA to switch on for recording or MEDIA for
playback.
The flip-out screen
To open the LCD flip screen pull the bottom of the screen up and flip it
over to the left.
Memory card
There are two memory card slots, A and B. You can use A or B or both.
A memory card is supplied with the camera. Check that it is inserted in
the SD slot. This must always be returned with the camera to the stores.
Insert or remove the memory card with the camera turned off.
Menu and Joystick
The 2 things you will use the most when navigating the Menu functions will
be the MENU button and the JOYSTICK.
Formatting the memory card and Camera Reset
Before using the C100 it is good practice to reset the camera to its
default set up. This eliminates any potential settings previously used and
allows us to set the camera to our desired set up.
In the menu select Other functions > Reset > All Settings
Before using the memory card supplied you must format any material
previously recorded. Any media still on the card at the start of your
booking can be formatted.
In the menu select Other functions > Initialize Media > Select A or B
and then press the joystick. Select OK and then press the joystick.
Recorded Image Quality
It is important that the video you record uses the correct settings. The
settings can be found in the menu.
Select Other Functions > System Frequency
Choose 50Hz
Select Other Functions > Frame Rate
Choose either 50i (interlaced) or PF25 (Progressive)
Setting the Black Balance
Whenever the camera has had a master reset the black balance will
need to be reset in order to calibrate the camera. Ensure the lens cap is
attached before attempting a ABB.
Select Camera Set Up > ABB
Preparing the Camera for Recording
Shutter Speed
You can change the shutter speed using the joystick, it appears as a
fraction. Generally you will set this to 1/50 (180˚) unless there’s a desired
effect you are trying to achieve by lowering it. Changing the shutter
speed does changed your exposure but it will effect the movement in
your image, so if you are unsure, stick to 1/50.
ISO Press the joystick once and then navigate to ISO using the joystick. The
native ISO that will give you the best quality image is 850, this will
appear in brackets. The higher you set your ISO the brighter your image
will be. However, this is an artificial way of adding light so you start to
see noise in the image.
Iris / Aperture
PUSH and HOLD AUTO IRIS –Only for Zoom lenses
Button number 12, on the left-hand side of the camera that
provides momentary automatic aperture. This is a good setting to
use to test the f stop the camera thinks should be used.

hand grip (only available on Zoom lenses)
Manual Iris set up –Prime Lens
To manually adjust the Iris / aperture turn the lens ring accordingly.

mic is the low cut feature. Select Audio Input > Int Mic Low Cut > Then
LC1 or LC2.
LC1 - Will remove low frequencies and let high frequencies through
LC2 –Good to use in Windy conditions
or connect external mics through the XLR inputs held with the clamp
Use the AUDIO IN switches to select internal or external mics
Adjust the level controls if the audio is too loud or quiet. The audio level
indicators on the flip-out screen should peek at 2/3rds of their full scale.
Making and playing-back a test recording
It is good practice to make a test recording to check that the camera
works satisfactorily.
Once you have made a test recording play it back by turning the switch
to MEDIA pressing the PLAY button. Alternatively you can stay in
camera mode and press button 6 index for an instant playback of the last
