The Canon IVY REC is a clip-on camera made for the great outdoors

Canon is roaming the plains of Indiegogo in a bid to secure funding for a brand new clippable, go anywhere camera called the Canon IVY REC. The teeny wearable snapper is rather robust, and packs a 13 megapixel CMOS sensor capable of taking solid snaps and shooting Full-HD, 60fps video. It’s also waterproof and shockproof, which as Canon reminded us makes it absolutely tailor-made for the great outdoors. On the surface, then, it looks like a pretty nifty piece of kit that could tempt those budding photographers keen to leave their chunky DLSR at home every now and again. Pricing details remain a mystery right now, but we’ll no doubt know more when Canon eventually launches its Indiegogo campaign.

About

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
