Canon PowerShot V1 ハイブリッドカメラ 超広角ズームレンズ内蔵 4K動画 Vlog ライブ配信 コンテンツ制作 コンパクトデザイン

16mm f2.8 but 28mm only f4, how great of bigger CMOS sensor🤪

The camera doesn’t have a flash

The PowerShot V1 offers a great combo of image quality, value, and performance. To start with vlogging/video, this camera is excellent for making videos at home. The larger sensor (basically micro four thirds) compared to other compact cameras in this price range makes lighting much easier. The ultrawide lens is rare for this type of camera, but offers awesome vlogging utility for both demonstrations and showing environments, while the long end has just enough to give a pretty darn professional-looking 1-shot look. The fast, consistent and stable autofocus makes shooting a breeze, and the I/O is also well situated for use in a streaming setup. Overall image quality is very good. The lens is impressively sharp at all ranges, and low-light performance is very similar to my micro four thirds Lumix G97. The still RAWs definitely have their own character compared to the Lumix that I'm still adjusting to, but I'm starting to get a feel, and the jpegs are beautiful for on-the-go sharing. I find the ergonomics to work well for video, when I tend to cup my hands around the entire outside of the frame. For stills, the grip isn't particularly deep, even for a compact camera, but it's not bad either. A second dial on the top/back would have been appreciated, but the AF is good enough that using the lens ring actually isn't bad at all once you get used to it. I don't have strong impressions of battery life yet. I've been impressed with it in some cases, but have also found the battery suddenly drained in other cases. One positive is that the camera doesn't seem to mind running while connected to USB power at all, so for longer shoots, plugging into a battery bank is totally an option, and in a lot of cases, like recording a long video, is more convenient than swapping batteries. The lack of flash, and pickiness about add-on flashes, could be an issue for some, but for the type of shooting I think this camera excels at, vlogging, street, and architecture, the flash isn't really missed. There are a few negatives. The lack of optical image stabilization is understandable at the price, but is definitely noticeable at times in video. The electronic stabilization is good when panning/tilting from a static position, but I find it very ineffective for dealing with bouncing from walking, even at wider angles. Given that a lot of action cams with great stabilization also do it all electronically, this is a pretty big disappointment, since this could otherwise be a very interesting camera for not-quite-action situations due to its small size and wide angle lens. My only other complaint is the location of the SD card slot, which is under the battery door. This is a perfectly normal spot, but the design of the door doesn't quite allow opening it while even a small quick-release plate is attached, adding an extra step to remove SD cards when using a quick release plat for tripods or other mounts. Those are really the only two negatives I've encountered so far. Ultimately, I've been super impressed with the V1. So impressed in fact, that I'm almost tempted to buy a 2nd one to permanently affix to my home vlogging studio. It's just so good in that role, and I also love it as a value street shooter.

Es una excelente cámara, he probado otras cámaras populares para vlogging como la DJI Pocket 3, GoPro o el iPhone 17 Pro Max y esta al tener un sensor mucho más grande ofrece mejor calidad que todas, el look de los videos no es para nada procesado, los colores son naturales y no exagera en la saturación. Pros: ✅ Grabación de vídeo 4K hasta 60FPS ✅ Vídeo HDR 10 y fotos con HDR ✅ Se puede usar como webcam sin instalar nada ✅ Controles y menús faciles e intuitivos ✅ Grabación de vídeo en H.264 para vídeos SDR y H.265 para HDR ✅ Fotos en JPG, RAW y las fotos HDR las crea en HEIF con formado .HIF ✅ Grabación ilimitada gracias a su ventilador integrado ✅ Las fotos y vídeos se pueden geoetiquetar con GPS usando la app de celular ✅ Filtro ND integrado ✅ Dead cat integrado ✅ Su fuerte es el vídeo pero aún así es muy buena para fotos ✅ Videos en log con mucha información Contras: * La app de canon no permite transferir fotos y videos H265 o HEIF (requiere que las pases por cable o sacando la memoria) * No es posible grabar en H.265 o sacar fotos HEIF a menos que uses HDR * Los videos y las fotos HDR no se pueden reproducir en la mayoría de dispositivos Android o Windows, requieren convertirlos o decodificarlos (en dispositivos Apple funcionan sin problema). * La duración de batería no es la mejor, pero al menos puedes usar la cámara mientras se carga. * El puerto USB C no es 3.0, si transfieres por cable será a velocidad USB 2.0, preferible usar un adaptador y conectar directo la tarjeta SD. * La grabación en 4K 60FPS introduce un recorte fuerte de la imagen y requiere que se desactive la estabilización (si no lo haces no te aparece la opción de grabar a 60FPS) * La estabilización mejorada introduce un efecto gelatina en algunas situaciones, recomiendo usar solo la estabilización óptica y mejorar en post. * La estabilización es buena considerando el tamaño del sensor, pero no esperes que esté al nivel de un teléfono o cámara de acción, es apenas superior al que suelen tener las cámaras APS-C, si tienes buen pulso puedes sacar tomas estables al caminar.

Great camera

The pocket camera market has become incredibly strange over the last decade or so. All of the good cameras that I have liked are no longer made and being resold at twice the cost thanks to social media. My G7X Mark III gave up after 5 years of service, so it was time to give this Powershot V1 a try, despite this being marketed as a vlogging camera and not so much for still photography. With that, I’ll review it as a stills person first with video second. The sensor size and picture quality has increased versus the G7X III, mainly due to going from the DIGIC 8 to DIGIC X sensor. The sensor is also larger and a paired down version of the same sensor on the R7 (which I have and love). Shots wide open at ISO 6400 show less grain than my G7X III did (but both can equally be cleaned up in Lightroom). Downside is that the lens is the equivalent of 18-50mm, so the zoom I had previously enjoyed on other Powershots is no longer there. I tend to shoot wide frequently so this is an annoyance. If this was an 18-100mm equivalent I would be in love. However we do have IS in the camera, so I feel like I’m able to get quality photos and videos indoors in less than great light. Macro mode is excellent and I can use this to take up close photos and not have to feel like I have to bring out the R8 and Macro lens. Video filming is nice. Like most Canon cameras, it’s fairly intuitive and you’re able to record in CLog3, which allows for more dynamic range and better quality of video. The built in microphone is pretty nice and works well but I can add additional accessories for filming (external mics, etc) so I was happy with the sound quality. It also includes a dead cat/microphone filter. It can also do subject tracking, which is pretty cool. I don’t plan on using this as a vlogging camera but I’m incredibly happy with the few minutes’ worth of video I capture at a time and can easily edit in Davinci Resolve. The camera is large, which most people find annoying but I actually like so I can hold it properly and not feel like I’m holding this with 3 fingers like I do with smaller cameras. It’s mainly made larger to handle the fans for the 4k video demands so filming lengthy videos won’t have issues. A few of the reviews that I read mentioned that the V1 had issues with SD cards. I’ve used several (v60 and v90) cards without issues (as always, good fast cards matter). There are a few irritating things with this camera. First, there’s no battery charger, so you’re charging out of the box via USB-C (20W or higher) to get started. Most likely you’ll need an additional battery anyway (the third party ones I’ve used have been fine) so it’s worth looking for one that does standalone charging. This also takes the LP-E17 batteries (same as my R8) so I can extend my filming time when out for the day. Another one of the things that I found incredibly irritating is that the lugs for camera straps have become incredibly small so I was barely able to get the Peak Design anchors on and having to resort to a small connector. I like a solid wrist strap in a camera to prevent from dropping, and the one included in the box with the camera isn’t so great. Shouldn’t be this difficult. Overall this is a really good camera with some frustrations but unlike the G7X series cameras, it’s newer technology and actually available for purchase without an inflated price. I’m happy with the stills and am able to take good footage from the camera. And with manufacturers seeming to abandon pocketable point and shoot cameras, this may be as good as it gets in 2025.
