A: Yes, the camera does have an uncompressed output for external recording.

Q: 7. I have a canon xf100 that has started saving a filming session on multiple files instead of just one. How can I correct it?

A: The MXF Files Format that the XF100 uses will require you maintain proper file structure when importing the footage in to a Non-Linear Editing System. The best practice is to copy and paste the entire contents of the memory card to your computer and from there import the footage in to your editing system. The files may be broken up on the card, but once you import them in the system they should be joined up. If you require additional assistance feel free to email us at ask@bandh.com.

Q: 8. NTSC ?

A: Yes, it's NTSC. PAL is Europe.

Q: 9. When should I service my Canon XF100?

A: Join the Canon Professional Services and you can send in gear for an annual maintenance cleaning and check up as part of your membership. Good deal and worth the security of knowing you can get your gear taken care of promptly. They also have a loaner program if you want to try out equipment before you buy. Very nice.

Q: 10. Can this lens be used (with an adapter of some kind) on the Canon C100 Mark II Cinema EOS Camera?

A: I'm afraid not. There is no adapter that will allow you to put a 1/3 B4 lens on an EF Mount Camera like the C100 Mark II. They do make adapters for B4 to EF, such as B&H #MTB4CANEF, however it requires a 2/3 B4 lens with a 2x Extender. Lenses like that start with the Fujinon XA20sx8.5BERM-K3, which is B&H #FUXA20SX85BE.Another thing to keep in mind is that Canon is about to release the CN-E 18-80mm lens which you can pair with the ZSG-C10 Zoom Grip, B&H Numbers CAE1880EF and CAZSGC10. The CN-E 18-80mm will give you a servo zoom lens that does not require an adapter or any additional power supply when used with the C100 Mark II.
