Canon Creator Heath Hussar and the PowerShot V1

Geekin’ over this beast of a camera! The PowerShot V1 is literally MADE for vlogging. With 4K60 CLOG 3 video, a compact design, and Dual Pixel Autofocus to track even the craziest movements... it really is a 10 out of 10.

The Lens

The PowerShot V1 is equipped with an ultra-wide-angle zoom lens that is equivalent to a 17-52mm lens for Full-Frame cameras (16-50mm when taking still photos) with an aperture range of f/2.8-11 at the wide-angle setting, making it ideal for vlogging without the worry of changing lenses. A built-in 3-stop ND filter is available, for bright outdoor lighting conditions, so you are ready to shoot, wherever you are.

Get Up Close

Capture subjects in large detail by focusing down to 5.9 inches. This enables richly expressive close-up shots using the wide-angle of view and bokeh that a wide-angle lens can provide.

The Sensor

Larger than the sensors typically found on compact cameras, the newly designed 1.4-type CMOS sensor has 22.3 megapixels for still images (18.7 megapixels for video), giving you enhanced image quality which provides a shallower depth of field, better light performance, improved Dynamic Range, and greater ISO performance.

Keeping it Cool

The PowerShot V1 features a cooling fan to prevent internal components from overheating, enabling unlimited continuous shooting at 4K60P. The fan pulls heat from the sensor and vents it out the side, preventing overheating and extending recording times to ensure consistency during long shoots.

Video

This camera is specifically designed for video content creators, offering oversampled and uncropped options for both 1080p and 4K30 resolutions to enhance sharpness and detail. It also offers cropped 4K60, providing clarity and smoothness of 4K resolution at 60fps, with an approximate crop factor of 1.4x. For more advanced users, the PowerShot V1 also features Canon Log 3, enabling you to record movies with a wide dynamic range and 10-bit color depth, starting at a base ISO of 800.

Shooting Modes

Since this camera was designed with the idea of capturing video in mind, it comes with some unique features that enhance your video creations. Let’s start with a close-up movie mode for displaying small objects (which the dual pixel AF II will lock onto. Of course, you also have Movie IS to reduce camera shake for clear videos, as well as Smooth Skin Movie. You can also use the standard choices of full-auto, full manual operation, and Shutter- or Aperture-priority exposure. In addition to all of this, you can register up to three custom shooting modes (C1, C2, C3) for both video and still shooting. In a first for PowerShot cameras, the V1 features a switch for video or still shooting, providing access to all shooting modes on the mode dial.

Keep it Steady

Your videos will look even more professional with both lens optical IS and Movie digital IS functions from our EOS mirrorless cameras, working separately or together to provide fantastic image stabilization. Even if you're walking while shooting, your footage will look natural and steady.

Canon has also introduced Subject Tracking Image Stabilization, which prioritizes stabilization at the subject’s location when it’s off-center.

Selfie Service

Chances are that you will be capturing a lot of yourself, so we have included features to make that experience even better, such as a flip-out LCD, allowing you to see yourself in front of the camera. A tally light has been added to the front of the camera, allowing you to know when it is recording. Even the grip has been redesigned to be better held from the front, utilizing your thumb for stability and to control the tilt. Everything you need to make yourself look great!

The Right Connections

This camera also offers excellent connectivity, allowing you to capture and share your creative endeavors effortlessly. With Bluetooth, you can connect to your smartphone to use it as a wireless remote control for capturing images, even in continuous shooting modes. The PowerShot V1 also supports Full HD streaming over USB and Wi-Fi, making it perfect for video calls or live streaming. The Canon Camera Connect app allows you to access, view, and share your photos and videos on the go.

Additionally, enjoy high-quality audio with its three built-in microphone array (which also helps to reduce background noise) and included windscreen as well as a mic jack, and a headphone jack for connecting external devices. Lastly, with the multi-function hot shoe, you can add additional compatible accessories as they become available, and now support multi-function accessories like the DM-E1D digital microphone and the AD-P1 Smartphone adapter, making it easy to transfer photos and videos.
