As someone who LOVED the Blogging Cameras of the mid-late 2000s (when my phone could just shoot thumbnailsized micro-videos at abysmal quality) i am HAPPY to see the return of these dedicated little pocket cameras. Smartphones might be nice to shoot videos with but most of them simply don't keep standards when it comes to framerates. Yes, holding it vertical but shooting horizontal is exactly what you DON'T get from Phones... This is why we got this insane epidemic of Vertical Video Syndrome. That was something blogger cameras, like the Flip Mino or the Sony Bloggie cameras, always did right. But my god... over 500 bucks for this thing? Are they serious?????

I don't know, but in an era when action cameras have perfect stabilization and shoot video in 10bit it have no sense. And smartphones have great video, wide angle and macro lenses, even apps that allow you to record RAW DNG video. I think the vlogging sector is full of better alternatives, more rugged (action cameras), with more possibilities (smartphones), and better video quality.

The image quality seems pretty lacking imo. At times looks decent and others it's quite poor. Not just talking about this review but looking at other channels who reviewed it. I think the idea behind the camera is extremely smart but it's lacking overall. 1" sensor is not the issue as high end video cameras with 1" sensor shoot 10 bit 4k 60FPS at 410 Mb/s and the quality is great. They gotta figure out how to get the image quality up on these things. Lets be serious.....a Gopro from last year that is cheaper does 10bit 5.3k 60fps

I was hoping to get an idea of how it performed in low lighting situations, having a 2.8 aperture. Besides that, I like the concept by Canon. Great video 👍🏾

This is surprisingly alright. Would’ve been a special bonus if the stills mode had even a basic c-raw w/ jpeg option. Overall, it’s actually a tempting little device.

Excellent review and usual, Gordon. Thank you.

3 votes against it: Slow and unstabilized lens, no aperture and shutter priority mode for Video and built-in battery. The 19 mm (Video) lens is only a plus in case of stationery use. In enhanced digital image stabilization mode, the resulting viewing angle of approx. 28 mm is underwhelming. I'm using the EOS-R, but Sony's ZV-1 with bluetooth grip are my first choice in the arena. Of course I was prepared to pay a higher price.

Excellent. The best practical purposes analysis from a technical intermediate level. Congrats

Yeah, even my seven year-old GoPro Hero 5 has interchangeable batteries. Initially the V10 seemed interesting to me because its larger 1" sensor would do a better job of working in low light conditions over the GoPro. But now that I know batteries can't be swapped and the battery life is short to boot, plus the reports of flaky autofocus I've been coming across, I'm hesitant to buy one. Maybe the next iteration will fix these issues.

I currently use the dji osmo pocket and doing make shift tripod for my sit-down vlogs so yes, this is definitely what i need. Awesome review!

I don't think it's better than the G7X cameras. But I like Canon are trying new designs. Better audio with the 2 big internal microphones. V10 has F2.8 lens, too dark especially with a 1" type sensor. Where G7X Mk3 has F1.8 lens and 1" sensor, better in low light. Would have been good to see different lighting test shots. Good hands on review.

DJI Pocket still way more interesting in many ways. But good review!

Great video …it’s amazing that one of the best camera companies out there never made cameras like GoPro, insta 360, DJI….it’s actually sad.

The record button looks like a nuclear launch button. 😅

Gordon, the screen appears painfully small. and very very fiddly. Amazing concept but Canon MUST design some different user interfaces for different screen sizes. Better still, give the option to tailor..They are draining every last INCH of that ole sensor aye..

A vlogging camera without IBIS or lens OIS, without 4k60 and 240fps, without phase detect AF, without object tracking, without a replaceable battery - you better like the nice Canon colors a lot.

Odd comparison, the G7X III is not a dedicated vlogging camera, it's an all-around point-and-shoot camera, which is also very good for still photography, a task for which the V10 is utterly unsuitable. The V10 ought to be compared to a current quality mobile phone and the question to ask is why buy this toy-like device if you already own a good smartphone?

@cameralabs

The G7XIII is heavily pitched by Canon to video creators.

Interesting artifacts around the edges of focus areas in the stabilized footage. Specifically around the edges of your body, where it transitions to a background farther away. I wonder if it’s a product of KZread’s compression, the compression from editing, or something else? Either way, it’s quite distracting, even on a small phone screen, and I wonder if that will be a permanent shortcoming?

@cameralabs

Digital stabilisation always has some odd arefacts, especially when you wobble as much as I do. Plus without any picture profiles, you're having to rely entirely on the default image processing here. But it is a beta, so maybe it'll change.

This reminds me a lot of those Sony Bloggies that were released in the late 2000s. Weirdly though I think this makes a lot more sense now than they did then.

Just looking into this camera as I was intrigued by the size and form factor. But on the canon website it says that the effective photo resolution was 15.2MP, and back calculating the crop factor from the 19mm equiv and 6.6mm actual focal length makes the crop 2.88, vs the normal 2.7 for a 1 inch…so it looks like it’s not using the whole sensor like the Sony rx0 I and II. A bit disingenuous for canon to keep claiming it’s large 1 inch sensor when it’s not using it all.

@cameralabs

I'm sure there are certainly some things going on that we need to find out! BUT when calculating, bear in mind 18mm is the equivalent focal length for the full 3:2 shaped diagonal. The quoted 19mm is when cropped to 16:9 for video. It's confusing!

Thank you for such a nice review. The camera seems to be perfect for vlogging with such a small design and such a big sensor. But as I could see in other video samples, the stabilization is not that great while walking. And digital IS makes walking in the evening looks like glitches all the time. Why no optical IS? Sony X3000 was killing it with it. This v10 camera doesn't have HDR mode and has a small unreplaceable battery... How can it beat mobile phones like iphone 14 or Samsung 23 Ultra? I think good points to this camera are a form factor, mic input, cool streaming options, wide angle lens and price. The big sensor without proper software don't do much in low-light conditions. Unfortunately! Maybe some issues will be fixed with a new firmware update. But I guess I'll wait for V20.

Shooting without a tripod is ok in a studio. There are many places you don't have a table handy so a tripod would be needed. Having a still lens makes the camera lighter but in some situations being able to zoom in would be niece. Interesting device.

wow, only 1hr of filming? that's not good. Hopefully there's a way to mount an external battery and power it via USB-C. But that will certainly add size and weight.

Humanity is regressing so much it forgets obvious things like the fact that the ideal vlogging camera is a mini-camcorder.

Great review thanks. Refreshingly to the point unlike many youtube reviews that detour into superfluous commentary. A couple of points for future perhaps: some evaluation of low-light capability (at f 2.8 I assume it should be OK) - is this affected by stabilization modes and what is auto focus like in low light.

Just a little something I noticed. It's Ok (although it doesn't look to me) if the lens contains fingerprint when not in use, but based on the sudden loss of contrast in the scene against the sun, I can tell that either the fingerprint was still there or the lens was not properly cleaned. Other than that, very good.

Excellent review, not into vlogging, but the simplicity is intriguing. Reminds me of the pocket camcorders of the 2010s. With a flippy screen Sony made the vlogger way back. Give credit to Canon. breaking the mold of vlogging cameras

Great review, Gordon. This seems an odd design choice for canon. I’m not impressed by the image quality, stabilization, or mic. The microphones produce a sound reminiscent of nails on a chalkboard. Rolling shutter seems quite prevalent, but I suppose at this price, whaddya gonna do? Except, at this price, it directly competes with action cameras which have far superior image quality (from the early reviews at least) and stabilization. The body build looks archaic in contrast with action cameras. That stand is atrocious. I don’t know about this one.

This is a very smart camera that is a direct response to the current market. It seems like the majority of vloggers that I watch on KZread are using the G7XII and not the Mark III…I think the early AF problems with that camera have made many users prefer the older model - which is strangely still on sale here in the US and at a lower price so I can’t blame them. I would have like to see how the digital zoom works because I recently discovered how well it worked in the Canon R7 if you use that camera to vlog with the RF 16mm f/2.8 Pancake. You’re forced to shoot in 1080…but in all honesty, vlogging in 4K isn’t entirely necessary. The built-in stand a support for external mics are going to set this camera apart. I think there will be a very specific group of users who will look at this and it will honestly be perfect for them. I must say that I’m considering it just as a webcam for zoom meetings!

Kind of ridiculous that Canon don't include wind mufflers. I mean, how much would that cost them? Very little I would say.

I think they might in one of the kits. The strange part is they went to a third party to make them. I suspect the V10 wasn't originally designed for outdoor / handheld use

I think I see this as part of my cellphone budget. As far as phones go, I have a 5G Sony Xperia 10 iii, and I won't actually need a new phone for probably 5 - 10 years. I have already excluded 6G as a superfluous technology. So if I pick up a V10 (or something like it) in the next few years, that becomes an "enhancement" for my overall photographic capabilities with minimal economic impact. It can fit. . . .

I'd like to be able to pair a headset using its Bluetooth. Should be good for up to ten metres, heaps for cooking in the kitchen or making sawdust in the shed or turning the gravel in the garden.

I keep asking for support for bluetooth mics on all of these cameras, but no-one seems to care

@@cameralabs I'd be happy to use Bluetooth headset or buds from my local supermarket. They would never produce the echo I hear when people use very expensive microphones in a studio that lacks sound deadening, that's most of them. I don't need high fidelity sound, the sound is not the point of any video work I might do.

Put some AA battery on this, make more affordable version of it (perhaps by cutting off the excessive 4k, most of the cases 1080p is enough) and will be a seller.

Thank you for the great presentation in must be a lot of work to do it

Thanks, yes, my videos do take a while to put together!

That really sounds like an interesting camera. When are you going to compare it to the latest GoPro device?

It's all for you!

Was kind of down for this, until I saw the price lol. Rather put that money into a new lens or payment on B camera. Great review though!

Gordon is just the best reviewer such consistency

Thanks!

It’s not for me I hope to see a more traditional vlog focused camera from Canon someday but for the time being I think the Eos M50 Mark 2 or Sony’s Zv line are almost perfect look’s like those are a good buy for vloggers but maybe pricey for some if Canon comes out with a competitive to GoPro on price good vlogging camera I’d go buy it imagine the people that made the 70-90d + compact since + made with vlogging mainly in mind + GoPro pricing + mic jack?

Not a camera for me but enjoyed the review. Hoping to see your A7CII review soon!

Thanks! I have a separate channel where I cover vintage stuff: Dino Bytes - mostly old cameras, but I will be doing my computers and consoles too!

guessno threads for any adapters on the lens protector that looks Non-removable. not good, if asked,

I’m thinking maybe, wish they would give me an upgraded PowerShot SX 740!!

Can it shoot timelapses? And if so, at what intervals?

Sadly not as far as I know, which is a major downside. I'll request it's added.
