Canon EOS R5 C VR Creator Kit with RF 5.2mm f/2.8 Dual Fisheye Lens for 180 Degree VR Shooting

Unlock Your Creative Potential with Canon's VR Content Creator Kit. With a wide range of features, this kit equips you with the right tools to elevate your videography skills to modern standards. Create immersive experiences from the tip of your fingertips.

Explore Your Imagination

Immerse your viewers in a whole new dimension of filming with the VR Content Creator Kit. This kit gives you the tools to create using Canon’s EOS VR System, beginning with the RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye Lens which features a beautifully engineered and optimized folded optical design, with separate Left and Right optical systems helping you capture stereoscopic 3D imagery with a 190 degree field of view to a single full-frame image sensor. Also included is the EOS R5 C, a full-frame hybrid camera that expertly combines many of the video formats and features from the Canon Cinema EOS lineup with the distinguished still-imaging capabilities of the EOS R System.

Simple Lens Swap

The pairing of the RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye Lens and the EOS R5 C brings high-resolution video recording at up to 8K DCI 30p and 4K DCI 60p. With a beautifully engineered folded optical design, the dual high-performance L-series fisheye lens combines imagery onto a single image sensor delivering impressive results to a single file. This can help simplify your workflow by eliminating the need to sync and stitch multiple video files. An integral part of the EOS VR System, Canon's EOS VR Utility software can easily convert footage to your choice of editing software. For Adobe Premiere Pro users, the EOS VR Plug-in software can help streamline your editing process. Both paid subscription-based software solutions allow for convenient post-production. Now, Creators Can Go From Traditional Stills or Video Shooting to Stereoscopic 3D Capture with a Simple Lens Swap.

VR With Ease

The VR Content Creator Kit provides the capability of delivering a single file creating a powerful and convenient solution compared to traditional VR systems which capture a 3D scene with two separate fisheye lenses, recording that imagery to two separate cameras or image sensors, which write two files. This can save the user time and effort behind the camera, and in post-production by helping to solve issues such as multi-camera positioning, multi-lens syncing, image stitching, audio syncing, encoding, and more.

Camera Firmware

To help improve the user experience with the uniqueness of shooting with the RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye lens, special features have been added to the firmware to optimize VR shooting. This firmware provides metadata information for the software to convert the image from fisheye to equirectangular. One of the features enabled with the use of this lens is a 'Magic Window' on-screen overlay, accessed by tapping the [INFO] button that assists the creator in framing the central resting position which shows an approximate field of view in the composition. The user can magnify at 6x and 15x magnification and then also use MF Peaking while magnified (a first for Canon EOS cameras) and additionally can swap between the left and right lenses with a simple tap of the [INFO] button while magnified. This is incredibly useful when manually focusing the lens.

EOS VR Utility and EOS VR Plugin

Canon's subscription-based software solutions are an integral part of Canon's EOS VR System. Options include the EOS VR Utility or the EOS VR Plug-in for Adobe Premiere Pro, each providing a different workflow experience for VR creators and studios. With either solution, conversion of the Dual Fisheye lens imagery to stereoscopic 3D 180-degree VR format in equirectangular imagery is possible, as well as the processing and exporting of the imagery at various resolutions and file formats so files can be viewed in compatible Head Mount Displays (such as the Meta Quest 2 or Pico G2).

Convenient VR Workflow

Simplify your workflow by eliminating the need to sync and stitch multiple video files. Canon's EOS VR Utility software can easily convert footage from dual fisheye to an equirectangular file that can be exported in various file formats and resolutions. For Adobe users, the EOS VR Plug-in allows for equirectangular conversion to be done within the Adobe Premiere Pro application. Now, conversion, editing, and color grading can be done without leaving the Adobe ecosystem. Both paid subscription-based Canon software solutions allow for convenient post-production.
