6. RGB 444 at 12-bit is available at all international standard frame rates up to 60P. If desired, this
can be switched to 10-bit.
7. If higher frame rates than 60P are sought – the EOS C500 can be switched from 12-bit RGB 4:4:4
to 10-bit YUV 4:2:2 and this component set can be originated as high as 120 progressive fps
(selectable in 2-frame steps from 62 to 120 fps as shown in Table 4).
8. Canon Log [4] is applied to each of the RGB components which are then delivered as 12-bit RAW
components for recording.
9. To restore a linear light representation from Canon-Log in postproduction a conversion to linear
space should be in accordance with the mathematics shown in Reference [4]
External Recording of 2K or HD
The EOS C500 delivers these RAW RGB video components to an external recorder via a standardized 3G
SDI serial interface. A single 3G SDI interface will support all progressive frame rates up to 29.97P. Two
such interfaces will support RGB components up to 59.94P. Table 3 summarizes the primary
characteristics of the component video that can be delivered to the external recorders. Note that the
C500 only originates progressive frame rates in contrast to the C300 (the C500 in-camera interlaced
formats are derived from the progressive)
