Advanced autofocus
You can acquire pin-sharp focus on your subject’s eyes with Eye tracking AF and intelligent head tracking via EOS iTR AF X. This is Canon’s innovative ‘deep learning’ Ai technology which tracks a subject’s head, even when they are looking away.
Professional connectivity and streaming

The enhanced touchscreen interface allows for quick and intuitive control of menu navigation, on-screen settings and playback. A new multi-function accessory shoe opens opportunities for additional accessories with expanded capabilities to be added.
Recording versatility
Capture an expanded dynamic range in Canon Log 3 for post-production flexibility, or shoot directly in broadcast-ready PQ or HLG HDR formats. Simultaneous recording to dual SD cards in a variety of formats offers maximum flexibility for your production needs.
Shared colour science
Canon’s XF605 supports the same colour science as Canon’s Cinema EOS and EOS R System ranges. This reduces the time needed to match colour in post-production when using footage from multiple camera ranges.

Our Verdict
The newer XF605 pro video camera has a lot in common with its larger sibling the Canon XF705. A key difference is that the XF605 records 4K UHD 4:2:2 10-bit XF-AVC rather than 10-bit XF-HEVC, but weighs 650 g less and is considerably more compact. It boasts the same 8.29MP 1-inch Type CMOS sensor, paired with a DIGIC DV7 Processor. The ability to record XF-AVC at 410Mbps or HEVC (225Mbps) sets it apart with ample room for broadcast professionals to record high data-compression rates without sacrificing any image quality. Dual Pixel AF is gathering momentum as one of the most accurate Eye tracking AF tools around, particularly with Canon’s deep learning algorithms in full flow.
It is easy to keep up with subjects virtually anywhere with the 15x L-Series zoom lens in 4K UHD which reaches x30 for FHD. Four levels of built-in ND filters assist during variable lighting conditions, and the camera also offers image stabilisation. 12G-SDI allows you to transfer 4K UHD on a single wire and there’s also UHD H.265 IP Streaming. If you are a solo shooter working across a range of broadcast disciplines this could be just the compact solution you’ve been waiting for.
