I really didn't want to hate this camera. I love the idea of a camera designed for vlogging. There is something about Cannon, where they somehow lose out on specs or even raw ability, but are able to harness streamlined workflow to a level that is hard to describe for those that don't use them. As streamlined of a vlogging camera as the G7Xiii is, it still requires a mic and a tripod. Not a lot of set up to get a very professional look with very little editing, but then they go and add both of those things in camera, make controls easier to access to the user, and supply it with a decent sized sensor. The real issue here is the lens. It is slow and soft and doesn't zoom. i realize this was created as kind of a cheapish novelty item to see if the idea took off, but if you had put the same lens as the G7Xiii on this body, I think this camera would be seen a lot differently. As it is, I can't really recommend this to anyone, because it doesn't really matter that you can deal with tripod issues by adjusting the angle or maybe adding a book or the like if the quality of the image, even in good lighting, isn't going to be sharp or pleasing, and awful in low light and not the most versitle of lenses. I don't see why you would want to use this for still as video is generally more forgiving of lens issues, not to mention handling isn't comfortable, though I guess possible in a pinch. The only real upside is that the price seems to keep dropping on this and as a one stop shop it might not be the worst as a my first youtuber camera, but the image quality is just too lacking to really recommend.

Terrible. Non removable battery. Battery life about an hour you'll spend all your time on the charger. Small buttons. The functionality is good with the app, Bluetooth wifi transfer and Webcam function. It could've been amazing if only it had a removable battery. Especially for the price.

very similar controls like Canon has on the cameras, very versatile for quick short cameos, great quality video and can edit on imovie etc... like other comments, I wish the battery lasted longer and charged faster.... the small chip can come out if the plastic cover is not snug and locked down..

Works okay. I might just try taking it apart to see if new pads and paste can help delay overheating for a bit longer. Right now 4K 24fps will record for 17 minutes before it overheats, and I'd like to be able to use this to record video for elementary music concerts I run. Came without a lens cap, but every other accessory was in the box. This is probably the cheapest way to record 4K video that isn't buying an old iPhone and 4 stars is for value (I paid 2 hunge)

Purchased this from the Canon outlet . Arrived today dirty, scratched and whenever packaged this item sent me the wrong USB. Common sense when you look at the port that a USB C should have accompanied the item worst experience I ever had ordering from the canon outlet side. Looks more like used than refurbished. Terrible. Shame on you , Canon.

This camera is great for a starter user like me. It's easy to use and all the functions are basically laid out for you. It would be great if I could connect to both my phone and the control on my tripod grip. Also if there could be more filters for the cameras, not just the basic ones.

The PowerShot V10 is a vlog and still camera in a new highly portable form factor with components from the popular G-Series line that lets you create impressive videos on-the-go. With stereo sound capture, a built-in stand, and easy live streaming, this cam is ready to go when you are. Don’t let its size fool you, this is a vlogging studio in a compact package that can be operated with one hand to let you express your story!
The small form factor of this camera makes it incredibly easy to hold and shoot video with. You really have to hold it in your hands to appreciate it. The thing that makes it really usable though is the simple menu systems, one button recording and that the camera powers up almost instantly, so it’s ready to go when you are.
The PowerShot V10 comes with a built-in stand. This incredibly convenient feature allows you to place the camera almost anywhere to get the shots you need. It can lean the camera back or forward with 30 degrees of angle for both. Perfect for looking up at your face from a table, or looking down onto the food you are cooking at the stove. You could even hold the camera by the handle upside down, and the camera will reorient the video for you. If all of that isn’t enough, of course you can still use a traditional tripod, or even something a little more modern like our HG-100TBR Tripod Grip
Sound is just as crucial as video when vlogging, which is why we’ve included two large stereo microphones to capture your voice clearly, and a third microphone to help cancel out unwanted sounds. No messing with lavalier mics clipped to clothing, or big, bulky microphones, with the V10, the whole studio is right in your hand.
We spent a lot of time perfecting the right lens for this camera. The 19mm (35mm equivalent) lens on the V10 is perfect for getting yourself and anyone else you want into the frame, but more importantly, it’s wide-angle enough that if you are recording yourself, you don’t have to have your arm completely outstretched, so you look more natural, and you can make a video without exhausting your muscles!
With the 1” CMOS sensor, like those used in the popular PowerShot G series cameras, you are going to look great, even in low light! The built-in subject detection helps to keep your face in focus and well-lit. That is really just the beginning, the V10 also has image stabilization, exposure control, Movie auto level, smooth skin movie mode, a built-in automatic ND-filter, and more!
By default the PowerShot V10 captures video horizontally, but that isn’t always what you need. Want to go vertical? No problem. Just turn the camera on its side and it will automatically change the aspect ratio to vertical.
What is a vlog shoot without some filters? The PowerShot V10 has 14 color filters built-in so you can change the mood and ambiance to fit the scene. There is also one extra filter that is kind of special. It’s an automatic ND Filter (Neutral Density), which helps darken a video without affecting how the colors look. This helps the camera avoid using really fast shutter speeds which can result in unnatural, jerky motion on-screen.
When you need to capture behind the scenes images, don’t forget that you already have a fully functional still camera in your hand. The high-sensitivity 15.2-megapixel, 1-inch CMOS sensor captures some great images with Auto Photo mode (equivalent to A+ Scene Intelligent Auto).
The PowerShot V10 has a free companion app – Canon Camera Connect – that lets you communicate with a compatible smartphone via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. Using the app, you can transfer images and videos to share on social media, as well as control the camera remotely and livestream. If you are recording videos to work on later, you can sign up for image.canon so your video footage is automatically uploaded there when the camera is charging and in range of Wi-Fi. Once your videos are uploaded to image.canon, you can have them forwarded to other cloud services like Google Drive or Frame.io. You can even edit the files directly from image.canon in applications like Adobe Premiere.
The PowerShot V10 has UVC (USB Video Class) support built-in, so it can work with any device that supports the UVC standard and can even act as web camera without the need for any additional drivers.
Sometimes you just want to share on the big screen right away, and you can! The PowerShot V10 has an HDMI micro output port for just such an occasion.
