  • Portrait mode—exhibits a blurred background while subject is in sharp focus
  • Sports mode—enhances capture of moving objects
  • Low-Light mode—enhances capture of bright images, even in dark places
  • Spotlight mode—enhances capture of beautiful images of spotlighted objects

By selecting a Scene Mode, capture can be performed without having to adjust multiple settings within the Camera menu, which aids a speedy setup and configuration, allowing the operator to start shooting with impressive image expression.


Webcam via USB Connection

The CR-N300 supports USB in addition to IP, SDI, and HDMI. It is equipped with the specifications of UVC (Video: USB Video Class Ver. 1.1) and UAC (Audio: USB Audio Class Ver. 1.0), which are the connection standard of USB cameras and computers. This allows video and audio output by connecting to a compatible USB device.In addition, driver settings are not required for connection to a computer. It can also be used as a webcam by connecting to a computer with a web conferencing application installed. The CR-N300 delivers up to full HD 1920 x 1080 video for high-quality web conferencing.



Easy Integration into IP Streaming

In addition to SDI and HDMI connections, the CR-N300 is equipped with an RJ45 interface purposed for IP communication, which supports high-resolution videos for distribution. The CR-N300 supports multiple protocols that can be utilized for video, audio, and control. The genuine RC-IP100 controller utilizes the XC protocol to control the CR-N300. The CR-N300 can also be combined with third-party equipment for control purposes. This IP system can contribute to efficient and labor-saving camera operations for the field of video production, broadcasting, and more.



IP Multi-Stream Support

The CR-N300 can simultaneously distribute video to multiple protocols via IP. Simultaneous distribution is also known as multi-stream, and the CR-N300 can distribute a total of three video streams simultaneously.If the HDMI/SDI video output is 30 fps or less, the CR-N300 can distribute two video streams, 4K H.264 and 360p H.264, at the same time. Such IP multi-streams contribute to parallel workflows where the same video is used simultaneously in remote environments.


RTMP Streaming Protocol Supported

The CR-N300 is capable of streaming video and audio using RTMP (Real-Time Messaging Protocol). Even high-quality/large-capacity video/audio files, such as broadcast programs, are played at the same time as distribution without waiting for the completion of download. For example, by using a live streaming service, the viewer's direct access to the distribution URL set on the camera will stream the "current video" captured by the camera. With the RTMP streaming distribution, multiple viewers can watch the program at the same time, even in a remote environment.


NDI|HX Live Video Production Support Protocol

The CR-N300 supports the NDI (Network Device Interface) protocol that is well-established in the field of video production and broadcasting as the supporting RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol). The NDI protocol has been developed and led by NewTek as a protocol that supports the workflow of live video production over an IP network.By constructing a system that uses NDI protocol-compatible devices and tools, it is possible to use video and audio resources on the network, including live video from cameras. As a result, a "live video production" workflow is created.



Standard VISCA Protocol

The CR-N300 supports the standard VISCA protocol to remotely control the camera via IP. When connecting a VISCA protocol-compatible remote controller to the camera over IP or serial RS-422, the camera can be operated remotely and shooting settings can be adjusted by utilizing the remote controller.The standard VISCA protocol is widely used in video production, broadcasting, and many other markets. The CR-N300 supports the standard VISCA protocol that is regarded as an industry standard and is suitable for operation within existing workflows.



One Person Operation & Canon XC Protocol

The XC Protocol is a newly developed IP that controls Canon video production equipment. By supporting the XC Protocol, the CR-N300 can be remotely controlled, supporting a wide range of applications, which includes sports, music, live events, lecture capture, corporate video production, and more.The CR-N300 can be controlled by IP, infrared, USB, and Wi-Fi. Canon's hardware controller, the RC-IP100 is capable of controlling up to 100 cameras and 100 presets, allowing the operator to control multiple cameras in a larger production.
