When you use DPReview links to buy products, the site may earn a commission. We tried to make vlogging the main focus of our Canon PowerShot V1 review, but we know that its combination of a large sensor and unusually wide lens caught the attention of a lot of photographers.
We also thought about how it stacked up in that regard, and found it's a little closer to RX100 territory than G1 X levels of usability. Unfortunately it's not RX100-like in terms of size.
Of course if you really want a relatively small camera with an ultrawide lens, the V1 is one of your only choices. In which case, it's still worth considering, but we thought we should make clear what the experience is like, before you commit your money to it.
