Spotted at BIRTV 2024

As we are waiting for the C400 to be shipped, it was spotted at the BIRTV (Beijing International Radio, TV, and Film Exhibition) paired with the dedicated ARRI Pro Cine Set. This marks the very efficient collaboration between Canon and ARRI, aiming for the professional market (just like ARRI did with the BURANO). The only downside is that this Pro Cine Set costs half of the whole camera (explore the Product Links below). ARRI released a Tech Talk episode talking about the C400 Cine Set. Check it out:
