Canon receives Gold Award for PowerShot V10 Vlog camera at
DFA Design for Asia Awards 2024
Canon Inc. announced on 1 November 2024 that it received the Gold Award for PowerShot V10, a Vlog camera at the DFA Design for Asia Awards 2024 hosted by the Hong Kong Design Centre (HKDC).
The Gold Award-winning PowerShot V10 is a Vlog camera that features a 1" CMOS sensor and large-diameter microphone for achieving high image and audio quality in a compact body which can easily be carried in a small bag. It employs a vertical design suitable for single-hand shooting and an easy-to-understand and simple UI (user interface) to display carefully designed minimal information, making it easy for even first-time camera users to enjoy full-fledged video shooting. In addition to handheld shooting, the camera is equipped with an internal and collapsible stand that can be used to adjust the camera angle, thereby allowing users to set the device down flexibly to desired angles without a tripod.
This product has garnered widespread praise for its design, having received the Good Design Award 2023 (Japan), as well as the internationally prestigious iF DESIGN AWARD 2024 (Germany), Red Dot Design Award 2024 (Switzerland), and the 2024 IDEA Award (U.S.). Encouraged by the recognition of these awards, Canon will continue striving to create products that expertly blend excellent design with outstanding performance.
