Canon Global has announced the PowerShot V1. However, the announcement is regionally targeted, including only Japan, Korea, China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. While the limited region for this announcement is disappointing (likely for the CP+ show), this camera is expected to reach the rest of the world at a date yet to be determined or announced.
