I had the chance to attend Canon Philippines’ media launch at Midnight Dream Studios, Glorietta 1, and it was one of the most creator-focused camera events I’ve been to. With dedicated demo stations for livestreaming, vlogging, podcasting, and unboxing, the hands-on experience gave us a real feel for what the new Canon EOS / PowerShot V Series is all about—video-first creation made smarter and more powerful.
Canon V Series: Made for Creators, Not Just Shooters
Canon is stepping boldly into the world of dynamic, video-focused storytelling with three new models: EOS R50 V – Cinema-Quality in Your Palm
This camera caught my attention instantly. With a 24.2MP APS-C sensor, it brings serious filmmaking features in a lightweight, handheld-friendly build. It’s optimized for creators who shoot vertical videos, use gimbals, or go live often. Key features include:
- Cinema EOS tools: Custom Pictures, LUTs, HDR
- 4K 60p livestreaming via USB-C
- 3-mic noise reduction tech
- No viewfinder = lighter + easier for handheld shooting
- RF-S14-30mm power zoom lens with customizable zoom speeds
Whether you’re vlogging, shooting BTS, or capturing events—this camera punches above its weight.
Price: ₱56,998 (body + lens)
Content Creator Kit: ₱64,998 (includes HG-TBR100 tripod grip and DM-E100 mic)
PowerShot V10 – Compact but Cinema-Ready
Canon’s first true video-centric compact camera, and it’s built for everyday creators who want DSLR-like video quality without the bulk.
- Large 1.4” sensor
- 16–50mm zoom lens
- Built-in ND filter for better light control
- Subject Tracking IS for sharp, smooth footage
- Internal cooling fan = up to 6 hours of recording
- 10-bit Canon Log 3 for color grading flexibility
This is perfect for food content, GRWM videos, and lifestyle vlogging—especially for those transitioning from smartphones.

✅ PowerShot V10 (Reintroduced)
Also spotlighted at the event was the PowerShot V10, already a favorite among compact creators. Its portable size and flip-screen design make it ideal for walk-and-talk or on-the-fly storytelling.
Creator-Focused Launch Experience
The launch wasn’t just about specs—it was about how Canon is listening to creators. With demo zones for unboxing, podcasting, livestreaming, and food content, each guest could experience how these cameras elevate typical content workflows.
I also got to rub shoulders with fellow creators like Farrah Espina, Karl Patacsil, and Gab Altonaga, who each shared how Canon’s new gear fits into their content goals.
As someone who creates across platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram, I can definitely see the appeal: DSLR-level control + smartphone convenience = the sweet spot for modern creators.
Sustainability Meets Innovation
Canon also continues its eco-conscious efforts, incorporating sustainable practices across product development and operations—something I personally appreciate more and more in tech brands today.
📍 Where to Buy: All models are available now in Canon stores and authorized retailers across the Philippines.
