From Canon's Web Site:
The Canon EOS C100 Mark II Digital HD Camera offers all of
the advantages of its predecessor while adding advanced new imaging and
operational features by popular demand. Optimized for one-person use
and compatible with the full range of Canon EF, EF-S, and EF-mount CN-E
Cinema lenses, this greatly evolved camera integrates the same Emmy®-Award
winning Canon Super 35mm CMOS Sensor used in all of Canon's Cinema EOS
cameras, but now replaces the Canon DIGIC DV III Image Processor with
the more sophisticated Canon DIGIC DV 4 Image Processor. In addition
to improved RGB video processing, the camera's dual codec capability
supports simultaneous AVCHD and MP4 recording, including 59.94P capture
along with slow and fast motion recording. Dual Pixel CMOS AF and Face
AF, wireless FTP video transfer, a built-in Canon Log LUT, GPS support
and support for an extensive range of workflows, are additional operational
features that have been added. A re-designed 270-degree rotating 3.5-inch
OLED panel, and a tiltable large-size EVF with large-size eyecup, further
empower the camera operator.
The compact, redesigned, lightweight body of the Canon EOS C100 Mark II Digital HD Camera has also evolved, and now includes a built-in microphone, START/STOP buttons clearly labeled in red, transparent covers on its twin SD card slots, improved battery insertion and removal, and an increased number of assignable buttons. Add to this its built-in ND filters, removable rotating pistol grip, removable top handle with twin XLR inputs, built-in stereo mic, and audio controls, and the Canon EOS C100 Mark II emerges as a powerfully evolved Super 35mm Digital HD camera designed to serve your quest for greater freedom of creative expression in HD video production.

Canon Super 35mm CMOS Sensor
The EOS C100 Mark II Digital HD Camera employs the same single
Super 35mm Canon CMOS image sensor as the rest of the Cinema EOS camera
family and includes the same innovative strategies that have established
the outstanding image performance of these cameras. This 8.3 megapixel
sensor maximizes the size of the individual photosite ? each of which
deploys two photodiodes to ensure high speed removal of accumulated
charge, which in turn helps elevate the effective sensor dynamic range. Allied
with innovative Canon signal extraction strategies that enhance the
sensor signal to noise performance allows unprecedented elevation of
the ISO setting in this professional Super 35mm camera, while always
protecting its dynamic range.
Canon DIGIC DV 4 Image Processor
The four 1920 x 1080 HD R Gr Gb B video components from the
image sensor are pre-processed and then sent to the DIGIC DV 4 processor
for advanced video processing. This includes separate interpolation
of the sparsely sampled R and B HD components to form full frame 4K
for each. The two green HD components are also interpolated to form
a single full frame 4K Green component. These three 4K RGB components
are then down-sampled to create a set of YCC 422 HD components
that have high MTF, improved edge transitions, low false colour moiré,
and enhanced overall colour reproduction. These components are further
processed preparatory to sending them to the AVCHD and MP4 codecs.
Simultaneous AVCHD and MP4 Recording
The EOS C100 Mark II Digital HD Camera enables users to record
in both the AVCHD and the MP4 recording formats in a variety of bit
rates (up to 28 Mbps and 35 Mbps, respectively), resolutions, and frame
rates, including 59.94p, to address practically any production need.
Both formats have their own particular advantages. AVCHD is a professional
standard that enables long-duration recording of full HD using moderate
total data capacities. MP4 has advantages for Web and smartphone sharing.
Both formats are easily accepted by most nonlinear editing applications.
The EOS C100 Mark II camera's dual SD card slots can record in either
or both formats simultaneously and can convert AVCHD and MP4 files
into smaller MP4 files for web upload.
Slow and Fast Motion Recording
The EOS C100 Mark II Digital HD Camera can provide slow and
fast-motion video effects when recording in the MP4 format. Sound is
not recorded, and the feature is not available during double-slot recording.
Slow and fast-motion playback speeds can range from x0.4 slow up to
x2.5 fast.
1.23 Megapixel Tilting Colour EVF
Larger and totally redesigned from what was featured on its
predecessor model, the EOS C100 Mark II camera's EVF (Electronic ViewFinder)
uses a 0.45 inch 1.23 megapixel colour panel surrounded by a large
professional-style eyecup like the one used on the Canon EOS C300 and
EOS C500 Cinema cameras. In addition, the new EVF has a 68 degree tilt
angle, allowing it to be used more effectively in a variety of shooting
situations.
Dual Pixel CMOS AFA standard feature of the EOS C100 Mark II Digital HD Camera, Dual Pixel CMOS AF (AutoFocus) ingeniously deploys the two photodiodes within each sensor Photosite to facilitate a powerful phase difference detection that provides measurement data that ultimately controls the EF lens focusing system helps ensure that proper focus is always maintained, even in unpredictable "run and gun" news or documentary-type shooting situations. Dual Pixel CMOS AF operates within the center portion of the frame and is compatible with more than 100 CanonEF lenses.
Face AF Mode
Face AF mode detects and focuses on human faces. Both the
Dual Pixel CMOS AF and Face AF capabilities give camera operators more
freedom to concentrate on composing their shots and paying attention
to potentially unpredictable shooting environments.
59.94p Frame Rate
By popular demand, the EOS C100 Mark II HD Digital Camera
can capture 1920 x 1080 HD video at a 59.94p frame rate (59.94p is available
in MP4 mode at 35 Mbps and in AVCHD at 28 Mbps). This frame rate can
provide captured video with a very "smooth" look that is useful
for sports and news applications.
Wireless FTP Video Transfer
MP4 and AVCHD video files (and still images) can be wirelessly
transferred to a selected FTP server. This feature is particularly
useful for transferring time-critical video for news and for backing-up
files. The feature uses the 5GHz band for quick, reliable file transfers.
Up to 100 files can be selected to transfer at one time.
Built-In Microphone
A monaural "mono" microphone is built into the body of the
EOS C100 Mark II Digital HD Camera for the capture of reference audio,
for spoken notes, or as an aid to synching sound in post. This microphone
works only when the removable top handle with twin XLR inputs is not
attached.
Built-In Canon Log LUT
Many filmmakers prefer to shoot in Canon Log to protect the
integrity of the total dynamic range of which the image sensor is capable,
which, in turn, can provide greater latitude in post-production grading
processes. As the picture is being monitored during Canon Log-enabled
shooting, however, the image seen will not accurately represent its final "look".
A built-in LUT (Look-Up Table) in the EOS C100 Mark II can be applied
to facilitate viewing the video live on a monitor connected to the camera's
HDMI® output in a more visually appealing Wide DR (Dynamic Range)
or BT.709 (television standard) colour space. The Canon Log LUT feature
can be turned on or off in the camera's menu.
Red Record Buttons
There are three start/stop record buttons on the EOS C100
Mark II Digital HD Camera (one on the front of the camera, one on the
removable pistol grip, and one on the detachable top handle) and all
are red for bright visibility. Besides aiding with quick identification,
this industry-standard colour helps reduce the chance of accidentally
stopping a recording.
New Ergonomic Re-Design
The EOS C100 Mark II Digital HD Camera features a compact
design for comfortable use by a single operator. Subtle but important
modifications for smoother operator comfort include indentations around
control buttons and a recessed power switch.
Outstanding Low Light Sensitivity and Wide Dynamic Range
The combined performance of the camera's Canon Super 35mm
CMOS sensor and DIGIC DV 4 Image Processor achieve a very high signal-to-noise
ratio that enables recordings with great detail and dynamic range even
in minimal light. This advanced performance yields a maximum ISO speed
of 80,000 and a wide dynamic range with up to 12 stops.
Full Manual Control and Focusing Aids
Digital filmmakers preferring complete manual control have
that ability with the Canon EOS C100 Mark II Digital HD Camera. Shooters
can also create, save, and recall custom picture settings, camera functions,
and display options. Highly effective built-in Focus Aids to confirm
critical focus can be displayed on both the tilting EVF and folding OLED
monitor, including Peaking (white, red, blue, yellow) and a magnification
function that can be shifted to 25 locations across the image. Also included
is an Edge Monitor feature, which shows red and green displays at the
bottom of the OLED panel with three red focus-check areas shown. The
green waveform shows overall focus of the image while the red waveform
shows the focus status of the focus-check boxes. Through this dynamic
focus feedback technology shooters can intuitively tune focus or quickly
change the zone of focus.
Removable Pistol Grip and Top Handle with XLR Inputs and Stereo Mic
The removable top handle on the Canon EOS C100 Mark II Digital
HD Camera integrates a built-in tally light, stereo microphone, dual
XLR audio inputs for stereo recording, and a mic mount. Audio is captured
in16-bit 48 kHz linear PCM format or Dolby Digital. A compact array
of audio-level dials and channel/input switches built into the handle
(under a hinged clear plastic protective cover) enables shooters to
select signals from the built-in stereo mic or mics attached to the
XLR inputs and adjust the gain independently on a channel-by-channel
basis. Users can also power a wide range of audio-capture devices with
the XLR inputs phantom power supply.
HDMI® Out with Time Code
The Canon EOS C100 Mark II Digital HD Camera includes a screw-locking
HDMI connector for output of live HD video from the camera to monitors
or other devices. The camera's HDMI signal features superimposed SMPTE
time code for attachment to recorders or other third-party devices.
Canon RC-V100 Remote Controller
An optional Canon RC-V100 Multi-Function Remote Controller
can be connected to the camera via its remote control cable to adjust
image quality and other settings from a distance. This can also be
a handy feature when shooting from a crane, jib arm, or mounted remotely
in some other inaccessible location.
Canon GP-E2 EOS GPS Receiver
An optional Canon EOS GP-E2 GPS Receiver can be connected
to the camera using a USB cable to provide precise location and time
information during shooting. This capability can support editing and
archiving functions.
