Canon LEGRIA HF R38

 

The HF R38 bundles wireless media serving with decent image quality and features.

Decent image quality, Capacious 32GB of built-in memory, WiFi DLNA server facility

Misses some manual settings, Limited enthusiast features, Only slightly cheaper than Canon premium models

Legria HF R38

 

1) Good size of 32gb built-in flash memory 2) WIFI setup is simple and works perfectly 3) Easy setup and use

1) Very short battery life. Canon should provide a spare battery pack 2) A bit disappointed with the image quality of both video & still shots 3) Shame that supplied VideoBrowser software is not compatible with Mac OS
