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!

Small, holdable, and pocketable

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.

Stand Right There:

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.

Seeing the Whole Picture:

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!

Going Sideways:

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.

Filters:

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.
