Our take on the Canon PowerShot V1
The Canon PowerShot V1 is a small 4K camera with a 1.4 inch sensor, suited to streamers who want better video than a webcam from a small body.
The tracked price is $939.95, the top of an $864.95 to $939.95 range across nine points from August 26 to October 19, 2026. That is $75 above the low, so a short wait could pay off. The listing gives 4K at 30fps uncropped and 4K at 60fps with a 1.4x crop. A cooling fan is meant to allow long recording, and the description mentions USB-C live streaming and external mics. This listing is a bundle with a spare battery, windscreen and a 64GB card. Rated 4.4 across 20 retailer ratings.
