Smooth professional looking movies
Your movies will always have a smooth professional look with Canon's Dynamic Image Stabiliser. It compensates for almost every kind of movement from the gentle murmurs of your breathing to the vibrations of a car ride. You can switch easily from Standard Mode to Dynamic Range when you want to stabilise heavy hand shake on the move, for example when walking or climbing up and down stairs, or when shooting at maximum telephoto range.

Big Dual Flash memory to shoot and share
The LEGRIA FS37 gives you the convenience of extended recording time thanks to dual flash memory capability. It incorporates a large built-in flash memory of 16 GB so you can record and save up to 10 hours of movies internally. There is also a removable SDHC memory card slot so you can combine internal and external memory. For instance using an additional 8GB SD card will increase available memory to 24GB - that's a around 15 hours of recording time. Or you can use higher capacity cards to further increase video storage. You can also copy movies from the internal flash drive onto the removable memory card, so they are ready and waiting for immediate viewing by friends and family.

The efficient file size of SD movies mean they are perfect for uploading to a computer or the internet so you can easily share movies on popular video sharing websites like YouTube or create your very own podcasts to send to all your friends with a free Canon Image Gateway account (register your product on the Canon Image Gateway website, see leaflet in the box). You can also playback your movies on any TV. Just connect the camcorder directly to the TV using the AV cable supplied. Memory cards are also so small that taking extra cards with you is no problem.

Ultra sleek, compact and lightweight
The LEGRIA FS37 combines excellent video storage capacity with a sleek compact size. Weighing in at just 225g it is not only extremely lightweight but also small enough to fit in your pocket, so you can carry it with you wherever you go.

Fun short movies made easy
Using Video Snapshot mode it is fun and easy to create great video montages. Simply press the record button to capture 4-second clips, the average length of one 'cut' in a TV show. To make and playback a simple multi-shot movie is quick and easy and you don't need a PC. All you have to do is select a series of clips and create a 'playlist'. This can then be set to music, chosen from the pre-loaded rights-free tracks on the camcorder or the selection supplied on the accompanying CD. Alternatively you can upload your own WAV format tracks using the Music Transfer Utility supplied.

Power efficient with quick recharge
The LEGRIA FS37's intelligent Li-Ion battery lets you shoot for up to 3.5 hours on a single charge. Plus all it takes is 20 minutes to recharge for a further hour's recording.

Never miss a shot
In Pre REC mode, the camcorder starts recording three seconds before you even press the Record button. Three seconds of footage are continuously stored and automatically added to the beginning of your clip from whenever you start videoing - so you need never miss that crucial moment again. With Quick Start standby mode you can also power up the camcorder in less than a second by simply flipping open the LCD screen.

Great results in any conditions
Your life happens everywhere, so the LEGRIA FS37 includes Program AE mode that gives you settings that automatically result in the best exposure settings for different conditions and different subjects. Portrait mode ensures shallow depth of field for a pleasing background to your shots of friends and family. Sports mode stops the action with faster shutter speeds. Night mode is designed to give you great shots after the sun goes down. Snow and Beach modes compensate for bright surroundings and give you the proper exposure on your subject. Sunset mode results in vibrant, well-exposed colors for one of the toughest subjects to capture. Use Spotlight mode when your child is on stage and in the spotlight - literally - and you want to make sure the exposure is right for them. And, Fireworks mode records brilliant images of another tough subject: the holiday fireworks display.

Great Low Light Performance
Some of the most magical shots are taken at the end of the day or long after the sun has set. You won't miss any of them, thanks to the LEGRIA FS37's built-in video light. The light lets you shoot subjects in low light up to 4.9 feet away. So, whether it's a shot of a sleeping baby, or a dramatic skyline at night, you can capture all the moments you want to record.

60 years of lens excellence

The power to capture quality images
The DIGIC DV II Image Processor ensures optimal image quality with excellent colour reproduction, especially in skin tones and dark and light scenes.

You don't need to stop recording to capture stills as you can set all key controls to automatic Dual Shot mode, which allows you to capture great action sequences and still shots at the same time. Meanwhile with a press of the Photo button 25 individual shots are created from a single second of video - a fun way to capture the best scenes as photographs.
