Editorial note

The Canon Legria FS37 is a camcorder that appeals with its modern design in black and silver, as well as its compactness, weighing only 225 g, making it easy to carry. Its 2.7-inch LCD screen offers an immersive viewing experience, although its size may seem small to some users.

The battery life, around 3.35 hours, is acceptable but may not be sufficient for extended shooting sessions, requiring frequent recharges. Although the camcorder includes a night mode and offers 16 GB of flash memory, the lack of audio inputs limits the possibilities for quality sound recording, which can be a drawback for videographers. Overall, the Canon Legria FS37 is an interesting choice for users looking for a lightweight and easy-to-use camcorder, but it may not meet the expectations of professionals seeking image quality and audio flexibility.
