Canon's V1 vlogging compact is coming for $900 – significantly more in the UK
When you use DPReview links to buy products, the site may earn a commission. Rendering: Canon Canon has announced that its PowerShot V1 vlogging compact will be available across the world from late April. The US MSRP has been set at $899.99 without tax, while the UK price is £959.99 including VAT. Key specifications: 22MP Type 1.4 (18.4 x 12.3mm) Dual Pixel AF CMOS sensor 16-50mm equiv. F2.8-4.5 zoom lens with 3EV ND filter Full-width 4K up to 30p from 5.7K capture 4K/60p from a 1.4x crop (1:1 pixel capture) Up to 30 fps stills capture in e-shutter mode Cooling fan for extended video recording Wired or wireless video streaming Multi-function hotshoe for flash or audio accessories Fully-articulated rear touchscreen Headphone and mic sockets Originally announced in February for several countries in Asia, the PowerShot V1 will now be more broadly available. We got our hands on one at the CP+ 2025 show in Yokohama, Japan, to get more details. Buy now:Buy at B&H PhotoBuy at Canon The 22MP camera is built around a Type 1.4 (18.4 x 12.3mm) sensor that's roughly the same size as a Four Thirds chip, but in the wider 3:2 aspect ratio. We can't know whether this is a physically or optically cropped version of the 30MP sensor from the EOS R7, but the pixel size and video readout specs are consistent with that camera. The V1 has a 16-50mm equivalent ultra-wide-to-normal zoom lens with an F2.8-4.5 maximum aperture. A built-in 3EV ND filter allows it to shoot video in bright light, while its leaf shutter allows it to sync with flash all the way up to its 1/2000 sec maximum shutter speed. The 16mm equiv position at the wide end of the zoom means the camera can still offer a 23mm equivalent wide-angle field of view when you crop in 1.4x to capture 50 or 60p footage. And, although it's primarily intended as a vlogging camera, the mechanical shutter and ability to shoot Raw means it should do a decent job as a wide-angle option for stills shooting.

Historically Canon's UK prices drop somewhat after the camera has been on the market for a while, but there's a significant penalty to be paid for early adoption in this instance. Press release: For All Creators: Canon’s New PowerShot V1 and EOS R50 V Expand EOS/PowerShot V Series MELVILLE, N.Y., - March 26, 2025 — Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, answers the needs of video creators with the new PowerShot V1 and EOS R50 V. Both cameras are part of Canon’s growing EOS/PowerShot V Series which seeks to help all creators, including cinema, livestreaming, vlogging, and VR, heighten their visual story telling. Canon Reinvigorates Point-and-Shoot If you’re a creator, you want the ability to pursue your own visual expression without compromising quality. Something lightweight and compact that can be used anytime or anywhere to lift your vision forward—a camera that works with you. Designed with a smart and modern concept, the PowerShot V1 is a reliable partner boasting key features including: A newly designed grip created for both normal and selfie shooting. Ultra wide-angle zoom lens—approximately 17-52mm for movie recording and 16-50mm/F2.8-4.5 for still imagery. New 1.4 type sensor with approximately 22.3 megapixels for stills. Dual Pixel CMOS AF II for PowerShot for improved AF speed and subject detection tracking performance when compared to the PowerShot G7 X Mark III. A cooling fan inside the body to help enable longer video recording. A still image/movie shooting switch for quick and easy transition—the first in a PowerShot camera. Continuous still shooting at up to approximately 30 frames per second, a mechanical shutter with a maximum speed of 1/2000 seconds, and an electronic shutter with a maximum shutter speed of 1/16,000 seconds. The Canon PowerShot V1 is also designed with workflow top of mind. Creators can leverage high quality video calls and livestream on a PC with a single USB cable, and the camera works intelligently with smartphones—both wired and wirelessly—via the Canon Camera Connect app. Cinema Quality in the Palm of Your Hand A movie-focused, high-performance camera that can fit in the palm of your hand?

For All Creators: Canon’s New PowerShot V1 and EOS R50 V Expand EOS/PowerShot V Series
MELVILLE, N.Y., - March 26, 2025 — Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, answers the needs of video creators with the new PowerShot V1 and EOS R50 V. Both cameras are part of Canon’s growing EOS/PowerShot V Series which seeks to help all creators, including cinema, livestreaming, vlogging, and VR, heighten their visual story telling.
Canon Reinvigorates Point-and-Shoot
If you’re a creator, you want the ability to pursue your own visual expression without compromising quality.

Designed with a smart and modern concept, the PowerShot V1 is a reliable partner boasting key features including:

Cinema Quality in the Palm of Your Hand
A movie-focused, high-performance camera that can fit in the palm of your hand? Yes—it does exist, with the EOS R50 V. The legacy of Cinema EOS technologies is splashed throughout, making EOS R50 V one for all creators who have high artistic ambitions to take to the next level. Key features include:
- Video-focused design elements such as a livestream button, movie recording button in the front of the camera, and a tripod screw hole for vertical shooting.
- Dual Pixel CMOS AF II for quiet and smooth AF.
- Ability to shoot 4K crop at 60fps and YCC 422 10bit.
- Compatibility with the newly launched RF-S14-30mm F4-6.3 IS STM PZ, the first RF-S lens with built-in power zoom.
- Four different methods of livestreaming: UVC/UAC, HDMI, Camera Connect, and Live Switcher Mobile multi-camera.
- APS-C sensor and DIGIC X image processor for rich bokeh.
- Image creation consistent with Cinema EOS with five presets for editing, such as Canon Log 3.
Creators are not one-size-fits-all, and EOS R50 V was built through creator feedback to make content creation easier. With modern design elements, customization options, and a new lens bundled together, the EOS R50 V is destined to be in your gear bag.
