Canon C70 to be announced this week

Canon's continuing march to the RF mount takes another milestone this week as the first RF mount cinema camera gets announced, according to CanonRumors.  This new cinema camera is the C70.  More of a midrange cinema camera, it is pretty small and compact going by the relative size of the RF mount showing on the picture.  It should fit in many different use cases.  Of course, some will claim that the R5 is crippled because of this video camera.  Please don't listen to that nonsense.  You can see on this one single image the reason why the this camera and the R5 are different.  A fan exhaust port.

The core specifications according to CanonRumors are expected to be;

• Super 35mm 4K DGO sensor (same as the Cinema EOS C300 Mark III)
• No IBIS
• RF Mount
• Internal ND (10 Stops)
• CLog 2 & CLog 3
• 4:2:2 10bit onto SD cards up to 4K120 and 2K180
• No RAW capability internally at launch
• BP-A batteries
