Canon may be preparing to enter the pocket gimbal camera segment, based on a newly published patent that outlines a compact, stabilized handheld device aimed at content creators. The move could position Canon against established players like DJI, which currently dominates the category. Canon has reportedly filed multiple patents related to gimbal cameras over the past few years, with designs gradually shifting from experimental concepts to more practical, consumer-ready ideas. Canon’s potential entry could bring its imaging expertise and color science into a space currently led by action camera and drone-focused companies. Canon is offering a range of deals through March 31, 2025, with a variety of perks for customers who purchase select products. The promotion includes extended warranties of up to three years on certain Canon cameras, including the EOS R5 Mark II and EOS R50. Additionally, customers purchasing participating PIXMA MegaTank printers will earn up to 1,000 Canon Delightful points, with one point valued at Php1.00. To claim these rewards, customers must purchase from authorized dealers and register their products through the Canon PH Delightful app. Read more in our articles including "Canon files patent for compact handheld gimbal camera" and "Canon PH rolls out New Year promos for cameras, PIXMA printers".
