Looking to update or replace C100 Mark II

Hi All

I'm a newbie to all of this so please bear with me!

I have two C100 Mark II's which I am very happy with but one is now beyond repair and I am looking to reolace it or update it - any suggestions?

I also have a Canon 5D Mark III but really just use this for photographic projects.

My budget is around £2500 - £4000.

Any help/advice would be very welcome! Thank you

Hi there,

What you upgrade to is going to depend mostly on how you use your EOS C100 Mark II. If you are recording audio onboard with the XLR ports and tend to shoot for long periods, the EOS C200 would be a great upgrade and it will give you 4k recording capability as well as an improved autofocus system. If you tend to shoot shorter clips and record audio externally or through 3.5mm microphones, the EOS R5 may be a good compact solution which will also let you shoot fantastic still images.

Many thanks for this. That's really helpful. Will probably go with the C200 as I do need to film for long periods.
