Recording flexibility

There's an expanded range of Custom Picture presets and Look File (3D LUT) support, while simultaneous recording to dual UHS-II SD cards in a variety of formats offers maximum flexibility for your production needs.

Diverse recording options on two SD cards
Two UHS-II SD card slots allow a flexible range of recording options, including simultaneous recording in different file formats, resolutions and color samples. The XF605 also offers a new simultaneous audio recording option that allows the audio files to be stored on one card for transcription while the main video is recorded on the other card.

High sensitivity and dynamic range
Capture an expanded dynamic range in Canon Log 3 for flexibility in post-production, or shoot directly in broadcast-ready PQ or HLG HDR formats. High Sensitivity Mode, Gain Boost and IR recording ensure that the XF605 captures high-quality images in low light.

Pioneering AF technology
XF605 is the first XF Series camcorder to feature Eye Detection AF and Canon’s EOS iTR AF X Intelligent Tracking technology, which ensures that the focus stays locked on to the subject's head even when they turn away from the camera. Other focus assist tools include Dual Pixel Focus Guide to aid manual focusing and Tracking AF to smoothly track any subject.

Professional connectivity
The XF605 is equipped with a versatile range of connections, including 12G-SDI, Ethernet and XLRs, to seamlessly integrate into live and offline production environments. Support for simultaneous output over EVF/LCD/HDMI/SDI enables multi-viewing and external recording using a variety of devices.

Remote control and network functionality
The XF605 is designed for IP streaming, with wired and wireless remote control capabilities, offering greater control and integration into multi-camera productions. Take control of XF605 in a multi-cam setup alongside Canon PTZ cameras via the RC-IP100 hardware controller, or use Wi-Fi to operate XF605 through the improved Browser Remote for smartphones and tablets. Video output over USB-C enables XF605 to be used as a webcam.

Content Transfer Mobile App
Content Transfer Mobile is an app for iPhone designed to enable the editing of News ML-G2 standard compliant metadata pre/post capture, as well as the ability to import footage from the camera to the phone, including instant transfer to FTP servers.

Usability and flexibility
Enhanced touchscreen functions include playback control and menu navigation for easy adjustment of settings, while 11 user-assignable buttons and independent lens control rings offering control over Focus, Zoom and Iris make for intuitive handling and customisation. The built-in motorised ND system provides the flexibility to control lighting and depth of field in a variety of shooting conditions.
