Canon PowerShot V10 Camera, Content Creator Compact Vlogging Camera, Fixed 19mm Wide-Angle Lens, 4K Video, Face Detection, Built-in Microphone, Live Streaming, Built-in Stand, Black

I got this for my daughter for vlogging after poring over tons of reviews on similar types of cameras. She had seen some tiktoks for other brands and wanted one. However after reading reviews I found those to be far overpriced with too many issues. I'm glad I found this one because it's very aesthetically pleasing (so important for the kids these days) and high-performing. I'm a little bit of a camera nerd and I found this both fun and functional. The design is really well done. I also have a degree in user experience and I can tell Canon did their research on design functionality. My daughter is much more interested in capturing the moment, not getting bogged down into tech details, so basically point & shoot. This is perfect for that. Everything from the stand to the display, to the image stabilization is perfect. It was easy to transfer the files over to her Macbook Pro and edit using DaVinci Resolve. It worked well in sunlight outdoors and low light indoors. The only thing I found lacking is a lens cover. There is no lens cover! I couldn't find anything online that would fit either. It also doesn't have wind screens for the mics. The lack of a lens cover is an issue because the way this camera is designed to work, you just throw it in your purse and go. It's low profile so filming in public is easy. But filming on the sly, such as whipping it out in a restaurant or other public space could mean its lens getting scratched from loose keys, etc. Luckily I'm pretty good at crochet so I made a little soft case she can tuck it into. This camera serves its purpose and is really fun to use. I think it gave my daughter a little more confidence as she's just starting out with her vlogging. A nice piece of equipment will do that! My advise if you're looking at this for the same kind of usage, just ask someone crafty in your life to sew or crochet a simple case to preserve the lens. 10/10 for sure.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Easy to use. GREAT quality. Originally debated between this and the ozmo so glad I wemt with this one.

really great first camera for vlogging! very compact, easy to operate, and has great camera quality (in well lit areas.) I actually ordered this twice, one was second hand and arrived damaged so be mindful of that if you're purchasing this camera. the lens is also exposed so it can get fingerprints on it really easily. overall I think its a great investment if you're just starting out

Can be a little touchy at time, but overall, I really love this camera... it was great for me starting out, especially with content creation such as youtube. It is so tiny so I don't feel self conscious about using this out in public because I am able to hide it in my purse and/or amongst other items of mine (like my phone, etc). You get your money's worth with this product and I've dropped it quite a bit and it has lasted so well.

I love this camera, the quality and sound is great especially since the price is so affordable compared to other vlogging cameras on the market. I brought it with me on a trip to Italy and it was so easy to whip out since it is so compact and can fit in my fanny pack!

It’s a great first little camera for those who are looking for something to start with!

Good.

Bad choice
