The new Canon PowerShot V10 is a bit of an odd sort of camera that’s no larger than a cigarette packet, has a fixed focal length 18mm/19mm equivalent lens and a flip-up/fold-back screen for filming a subject in the normal way or filming yourself.
It has a 1-inch sensor, so should be a useful step up from smartphone quality, yet costs only half as much as the best camera phones out there right now. The controls are pretty simplistic, and the only zooming is digital, but it’s designed for simple vlogging use – and that’s the point. It has actually been designed for this. It’s not an adaptation of an existing camera.
