  "account": "Canon has released firmware updates for several Cinema EOS cameras, enhancing their capabilities and fixing bugs. The updated cameras include the Canon EOS C80, EOS C400, EOS C50, EOS C70, and EOS R5 C.\n\nThe C80 and C400 cameras now feature a new 'Cinema Exposure' mode, which allows for better highlight performance when shooting above base ISO levels, up to two stops. This mode also streamlines menus for log shooting, providing users with more flexibility in challenging environments.\n\nBoth the C80 and C400 are now compatible with the powerful CINE-SERVO CN30x40 IAS J R1/P1 lens, a 30x zoom lens with built-in 1.5x teleconverter. Additionally, both cameras have been updated to support [S&F External Audio Output] during Slow & Fast Motion recording, enabling audio output via external devices such as SDI, HDMI, or headphones.\n\nThe EOS C50 received compatibility with the same CINE-SERVO lenses and improved operational stability. The EOS C70 also gained compatibility with these lenses and fixed an issue that could prevent connection to an FTP server.\n\nLastly, the EOS R5 C, a camera that some users had questions about, received a few new features and bug fixes. It now supports the CINE-SERVO CN30x40 IAS J R1/P1 lenses and has improvements in operational stability. Other updates include a color change in the level indicator when the camera is level and the ability to playback RAW clips in Media mode with lens correction settings. The firmware also fixed issues with connecting to an FTP server and being recognized by a smartphone via USB.",
