<p>Canon recently announced the Legria mini, a device you might have missed, not only because of its compact nature but also because it seems to be a throwback to a category of devices we've all but forgotten.</p><p>The Canon Legria mini is a pocket camcorder, whose sole purpose is to capture your video and share it. It sounds a little like the Flip camcorders that were made extinct by the mighty rising for the smartphone.</p><p>Canon is no stranger to the threat of the smartphone cannibalising the compact camera market and the play here is to push quality without sacrificing connectivity, as it comes packed with Wi-Fi.</p><p>In the hand we can't help thinking it looks a little like a tiny projector, thanks to the stand on the bottom and the positioning of the lens on the front.
