It is only one of the two options provided to the market, EOS VR Utility will also afford users conversion of their Dual Fisheye image to Equirectangular as well as export options of various different preset resolutions and file types (examples: DPX, Pro Res, H264).”Ĭanon also announced that the “in order to truly experience the captured content by Canon’s EOS VR system in its truest form, a compatible VR headset is recommended for use such as the Oculus Quest 2, allowing the viewer to immerse themselves in the content - by simply moving their head to provide a vivid, incredibly wide view.” I wrote then that although Oculus Virtual Reality headsets are popular, many users dislike the fact that since the introduction of the Oculus Quest 2, it has become mandatory to have a Facebook account”. Here is Canon’s reply: “As with all of our products we will continue to listen to our user’s feedback, however at this time the EOS VR Plug-In is only compatible with Adobe Premiere Pro. Will DaVinci Resolve and other NLEs get the plug-in?ĮOS VR Utility is coming soon, according to Canon, and this first version will be compatible with Adobe Premiere Pro, which the company says, “is the industry leading application for creating rich, immersive VR content.” Still, as the company also mentions other “compatible NLEs,” we asked Canon if the EOS VR Plug-In is going to be compatible only with Premiere Pro or will other video editors, as DaVinci Resolve get the plug-in? However, for greater control over the grade and edit, for more professional productions, the converted files can be imported into Adobe Premiere Pro, or the EOS VR plug-in for Adobe Premiere Pro, also announced, can be used to import and convert EOS VR files in one process.

Canon’s EOS VR Utility, ‘de-squeezes’ the two circular fisheye images into two side-by-side ‘square’ images (a standard format for 180° VR image files), ready for viewing on a VR headset or editing in a compatible software application or NLE system.Ĭanon’s EOS VR Utility can do basic cropping of the Canon VR video files before conversion. Key to the new system is the EOS VR Utility, which makes conversion of the stereoscopic footage and stills for editing and playback, a much more efficient process.

The RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye will work with the EOS R5 (an update to the camera will be needed) as the base for the new EOS VR System. The RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye has a rear-mounted gelatin filter holder for pre-cut ND gels which can be used to help precisely control light levels when in use on 180° VR video productions. It is dust and splash resistant and features fluorine coatings to repel water and dirt on the lens surface. Editing in compatible NLE systemsīecause it’s an L-series lens, the RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye is built for professional use.

With a stereoscopic 190° field of view, two offset circular fisheye images are perfectly synchronized and recorded side-by-side onto a single Full Frame sensor, ready for Canon’s powerful EOS VR Utility/plug-in to seamlessly process for final edit, requiring no additional stitching.
This new lens for virtual reality simplifies the capture and post-production of professional 180° VR content. The RF 5.2mm F2.8L Dual Fisheye performs, Canon says, “superbly in low light thanks to a fast f/2.8 aperture with accurately synchronized exposure and precise control via a dual Electro Magnetic Diaphragm (EMD) design.”

The lens, the Canon RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye, is the first of the new EOS VR System, which will use the full frame mirrorless camera EOS R5 as a starting point.įeaturing perfectly aligned, dual forward facing fisheye lenses, the RF5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye utilizes two UD elements per lens to correct for aberrations plus Canon’s special SWC coatings to reduce ghosting and flare, even in backlit conditions. The world’s first digital interchangeable dual fisheye lens capable of shooting stereoscopic 3D 180° VR imagery to a single image sensor was announced this month. ProVideo Coalition has confirmed that Canon’s new VR lens is compatible with more headsets than the Quest 2, and that other NLEs besides Premiere will, probably, work with the EOS VR System.
