Canon’s PowerShot V10 Gets ‘Enhanced’ Image Stabilization Update
Canon announced an upcoming firmware update for the PowerShot V10 vlogging camera that promises to “update and improve” the performance of its image stabilization.
The PowerShot V10 was announced in May 2023 and is described as the first product in Canon’s consumer video production, live streaming and vlogging line; the “V” stands for video communication. It features a 19mm f/2.8 prime lens in front of a 20.9-megapixel Type 1 image sensor, although only 15.2 megapixels are used during still photo shooting. During movie recording, because of the wider aspect 16:9 aspect ratio, the resolution dips to 13.1 megapixels. It can record 4K UHD video at up to 30 frames per second or Full HD video at 60p.
The upcoming firmware update for the PowerShot V10 includes an updated algorithm for optimized and improved image stabilization, Canon says. The camera was designed for on-the-go content creators who are moving from a smartphone to a dediated camera and this update promises better results than were previously possible when the camera is in motion.
“Content creators know that some of the most exciting moments to capture happen while in movement. The update will optimize and improve image stabilization performance for shooting while walking, helping to create beautiful visuals even in unstable positions or shooting with one hand extended,” Canon says.
