Camera Overview — Canon IVY REC

The Canon IVY REC is a compact point-and-shoot camera built for active, on-the-go shooting. At its core is a 1/2.3-inch sensor with 13MP resolution, capable of capturing stills at up to 4160x3120 pixels. The ISO range runs from 100 to 3200, giving it a reasonable spread of sensitivity for varying lighting conditions.

On the video side, the IVY REC records up to 1080p at 60fps, with additional options at 1080p/30fps and 720p/30fps, making it a capable little camera for everyday video capture. One of its more practical features is the water-resistant body design, which offers a degree of protection for outdoor and adventure use. Storage is handled via microSD cards, keeping things compact and widely compatible.

Connectivity is a genuine strong suit here — the camera includes both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth alongside USB, making wireless image transfer straightforward. Autofocus uses contrast detection, and digital image stabilization is available to help smooth out handheld footage. Battery life is rated at approximately 1,000 shots per charge, which is a solid figure for a camera of this type.

There is no optical viewfinder and no display, which defines the screen-free operation style of this camera.
