Canon has announced two new vlogging-centric cameras, the point-and-shoot PowerShot V1 and the mirrorless EOS R50 V.
PowerShot V1
The PowerShot V1 features a new design optimized for normal as well as selfie shooting. It includes a fixed 16-50mm f2.8-4.5 zoom lens that can cover 17-52mm in video (due to the added crop). The camera uses a new 22.3MP 1.4-type sensor with Dual Pixel CMOS AF II for PowerShot and a cooling fan inside to enable longer video recording. The camera can be used for video calls and livestreams with a PC over a USB connection, and can work wired or wirelessly with smartphones using the Canon Camera Connect app.
EOS R50 V
Next is the EOS R50V. This new design is also optimized for video with a dedicated livestream button, a recording button on the front of the camera, and a tripod screw hole on the side for portrait recording. The R50V uses the RF-mount and is compatible with all Canon RF lenses, including the newly launched RF-S14-30mm F4-6.3 IS STM PZ, which is the first RF-S lens with power zoom functionality. The camera uses a 24MP APS-C sensor with Dual Pixel CMOS AF II and DIGIC X processor. It can shoot videos up to 4K in 60fps with a crop and YCC 4:2:2 10-bit. It also supports Canon Log 3 so you can match it with Canon’s Cinema EOS line.
The Canon PowerShot V1 is priced at $900. The EOS R50 V is priced at $650 for the body-only and $850 with the RF-S14-30mm F4-6.3 IS STM PZ lens. Both cameras will be available in April.
