Photo and video on-the-go

The new IVY REC is definitely the most portable and compact Canon camera to date. Measuring a modest 4.3” x 1.7” x 0.72” and weighing only 3.17 ounces, the IVY REC can be taken any place you need to be creative. Crafted for the adventurer, the camera comes with a clip on the end to attach to backpacks, belt loops, or even a keychain, for every outdoor adventure — and this same clip also functions as a viewfinder, where you can see your scene before capturing. The tiny camera is both waterproof and shockproof to withstand a drop in the creek or a bump off a rock. With the IVY REC, users are now able to completely capture all their expeditions with equipment that is tinier than before.

Although small enough to fit in your shirt’s front pocket, the IVY REC rocks a 13.0 megapixel CMOS sensor ensuring surprisingly sharp and detailed photographs. Using multi-mode, users can quickly jump over to video and record in 1080p at 60fps. Since most shooting will be done on-the-go, users can then connect to the Canon Mini Cam App with the built-in WiFi and Bluetooth to seamlessly share their produced content.

To add some style and personality, Canon offers different colored faceplates that users can attach to their IVY REC — these are sold separately for . Canon has also included a one-year warranty for the IVY REC units. 

The cameras come in three colors: avocado (green), dragonfruit (pink), and riptide (blue), and are available for preorder now for
