This camera is the latest release in a trend of vlogging cameras that has been released by a number of makers recently. Camera makers appear to be pivoting toward this trend to cater to a growing desire of people to take high-quality social media photos and videos, and for up-and-coming influencers to afford a good quality camera without spending too much money. The explosion in popularity of short-form videos on Instagram and TikTok is also one of the reasons why Sony, Canon, and other companies making vlogging cameras have included vertical resolution functions.
