Canon U.S.A. is helping all creators—whether its cinema, livestreaming, vlogging, or VR—heighten their visual story telling. The company recently released its PowerShot V1 and EOS R50 V, expanding the EOS/PowerShot V Series.
Designed with the creator in mind, the PowerShot V1 is lightweight and compact and can be used anytime or anywhere. Key features include a newly designed grip created for both normal and selfie shooting; and ultra wide-angle zoom lens—approximately 17-52mm for movie recording and 16-50mm/F2.8-4.5 for still imagery; a 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.
The Canon PowerShot V1 also enables 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. 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.

The thought behind the EOS R50 V was to have a movie-focused, high-performance camera. Key features include a 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; the 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; and much more.
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 any gear bag.
