Canon has updated their firmware for the Canon C300 to version 1.1.1.1.00. The previous update (posted on the 12 November) has discrepancies in colour balance, whereas this update fixes these issues. It is recommended all C300 cameras are updated to version 1.1.1.1.00.
Full details of the update are below (from Canon):
Firmware Version 1.1.1.1.00 incorporates all the functions and modifications listed below:

A Key Lock menu setting has been added which now makes it possible to lock all operations, including the START/STOP button.
Using the optional Canon WFT-E6 Wireless File Transmitter, the camera’s remote-control application allows two users to access the same unit via a Wi-Fi link providing simultaneous camera operation and control and metadata input.
[Lens Exchange] and [ND+]/[ND-] have been added as functions that can be allocated to any assignable button.
A new Wide DR Gamma setting provides an expanded dynamic range of 800%.
Flicker Reduction has been improved.

*Note: Gamma information will not be shown correctly in the metadata of clips filmed on the Wide DR Gamma setting included in Firmware Version 1.1.0.1.00 and above when using the bundled software application Canon XF Utility Ver.1.3.1 or earlier. Therefore, we recommend our customers install Canon XF Utility Ver.1.3.2. The installer for this application has already been released.
