Key Specs
- Image Sensor Size: 1/2.3" (6.17 x 4.55mm)
- Effective Pixels: 20.3 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
- Standardized Video Resolution: 4K (2160p) (An approximated measurement of the product’s video resolution. This may not be the exact resolution of the product, which may be slightly more or less when using a pixel-by-pixel measurement.)
General
- Brand: Canon
- Model Number: 2955C001
- Product Name: PowerShot SX740 HS 20.3-Megapixel Digital Camera
- Color: Black
- Camera Model Family: Canon PowerShot SX740
- Digital Camera Type: Point and Shoot Cameras
Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Image Sensor Size: 1/2.3" (6.17 x 4.55mm)
- Total Pixels: 21.1 megapixels (Generally, the more pixels, the higher the image resolution and the finer the detail that can be seen.)
- Image Resolution (Display): 5184 x 3888 (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, used to either capture an image or display it. The higher the resolution the finer the image details.)
- Zoom Capability: true (This function allows for magnification of the subject.)
- Digital Zoom: 4x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
- Optical Zoom: 40x (The optical zoom uses a combination of lenses that magnify the image prior to it being registered at high resolution by the imaging sensor.)
- Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)
- Image File Format(s): JPEG (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
Focus
- Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
- Eye Autofocus (Eye AF): false (Automatically seeks out and focuses on the subject's eye and holds it as the camera and subject move and as the photographer shoots at high frame rates.)
- Number of Autofocus Points (Up To): 0
Exposure Control
- Shutter Speeds: 15 - 1/3200 (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
- Brightness Control: false (Allows the camera to adjust the brightness of a captured image for optimal exposure.)
- Burst Mode: true (Also referred to as continuous shooting. This feature captures multiple shots in rapid succession.)
- Self Timer: true
- Self-Timer Delay: 10 seconds, 2 seconds, Continuous shooting
- Shooting Modes: P, M, Tv, Hybrid Auto, Auto, Standard, Vivid, Neutral, B/W, Sepia, Video Snapshot, Food (Exposure modes employed by the photographer to control the optimal aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and other settings for capturing specific subjects/scenes. Examples include Aperture-Priority, Macro, and Manual modes.)
- Panorama Mode: false
- White Balance Modes: Auto; Daylight; Shade; Cloudy; Tungsten; Fluorescent H; Custom (Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
- Effective Pixels: 20.3 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
Lens
- In-Lens Image Stabilization: true (This feature helps reduce image blurring from camera motion. Lens stabilization means an element within the lens moves automatically to counteract detected motion.)
Flash
- Flash Modes: Automatic, Fill-in, Off, Slow sync (The flash feature emits light to increase the brightness of a subject in dimly lit environments. Common modes include Auto and Red-Eye Reduction.)
- Integrated Flash: true
Display
- Display Type: TFT-LCD
- Screen Size: 3 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
- Screen Resolution: 922,000 dots (Screens come in a range of resolutions (measured in pixels, horizontal x vertical). The higher the resolution, the greater the picture quality.)
- Touch Screen: false (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
- Varying Angle Screen: false (The camera's screen can be flipped out and adjusted to rotate, tilt, and/or swivel.)
Video
- Standardized Video Resolution: 4K (2160p) (An approximated measurement of the product’s video resolution. This may not be the exact resolution of the product, which may be slightly more or less when using a pixel-by-pixel measurement.)
- Video Resolution(s) and Frame Rate(s): 4K (2160) video recording at 29.97 FPS (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, and the frame rate used to capture the video. The higher the resolution the finer the video detail that can be seen. The faster the frame rate the smoother the playback for higher motion activities like sports.)
- HDR Mode: false (HDR Mode uses multiple photos taken at different exposures to add more dynamic range to photographs. HDR technology displays content with greater contrast between bright and dark, resulting in clearer and more lifelike images.)
- Slow Motion Recording: false
- HD Movie Mode Focus: Automatic
Storage

Product Manuals

Q: Is this camera any good for vlogging or should I look for something else?

A: I think its excellent for vlogging as long as your not in windy weather because then it takes long for the camera to focus but other than that the camera is awesome I use it to record sports to make highlights

Q: Does this camera have the flip screen for selfies

A: Yes, that is why I purchased it.

Q: I'm concerned with lag time from when shutter is pressed and image is taken. I read one review where this was a problem on the SX740. I got rid of a Canon SureShot several years ago because of this very issue. Has anyone else experienced this?

A: I did not have trouble. Obviously it is not as fast as an SLR camera, but I had no problem in taking shots in the amount of time I desired.

Q: This camera was on Amazon for less money & it included accessories i.e. case, battery, tripod, memory card, etc. Two people had to return it and the camera wasn't under warranty because Canon said it shouldn't have been sold in the USA. Anyone experience?

A: No issues with my camera. I absolutely love it & I’m covered under Best Buy warranty if something happens. I can take it back & get a new one or put my money towards another camera. Amazon maybe cheaper but u will only get 30 days with them. Hope this helps

Q: I’m having a Heck of a time getting my camera paired with my phone to transfer photos to phone from the phone.

A: Make sure you have the Canon Camera Connect app on your phone. Make sure both the phone and camera are connected to the same WiFi network. Once this is done, push the WiFi connect button on the camera. It will then search for devices. Once it discovers it, you select it and name it. From that point on it will automatically recognize your phone. It works great once it is connected. However, if your phone goes to sleep while connected, it will disconnect with the camera. The app MUST be open on your phone the whole time you are using it.

Q: Is this camera waterproof or at least water resistant looking for a good vlogging camera that can be used at beaches, waterparks, etc? If not what is a good waterproof or resisant camera for volgging?

A: You're going to want a GoPro...there are virtually no waterproof/resistant premium point-and-shoots

Q: how long can i record a video for? can i do makeup videos ? (2-3hr span)

A: All Canon cameras stop recording at 29min 59 seconds. You can look this up but it is a European thing that any longer than that and it is considered a camcorder.

Q: Can you enlarge the zoom shots to canvas 8 x 10 or 11 x 14 to display or hang?

A: Yes. As long as you don't crop in post production, the amount of pixels and the optical zoom allow you print up to poster size, which is 36x24 inches.
