    Perfect Digital Camera

    Purchased this digital camera to carry with me on trips. I wanted something compact, with an on body flash, and customizable settings. This cannon has all of these things and more to offer. Includes an app that makes for easy photo transfers to post on social media as well. Battery life is great. I highly recommend this purchase if these things appeal to you. One downside is that the screen is not a touchscreen however it is still easy to navigate settings and images that have been taken.

    Review for canon sx740

    The Canon SX740 HS is a game-changer! Its 40x zoom captures stunning details from afar, perfect for landscapes and wildlife. Image quality is superb, even in low light, thanks to excellent stabilization. 4K video is a bonus! Battery life could be better, but a spare fixes that. Portability, power, and quality make this camera a winner. Highly recommend!

    Perfect for throwing in your purse!

    I love using this camera. I wanted a little camera with a nice flash that I could throw in my purse and easily get nice pics. I can hand it to others without having to explain how to work it too much. The reason I took off a star is because it pretty much needs the flash or a tripod or the shots will come out a little blurry. But with flash I think the shots come out beautifully. I hope cannon makes more with the the exact small size and flash concept. Perfect for throwing in your bag. It's a little expensive, but the concept is hard to find in other cameras.

Boasting a 20.3MP CMOS sensor and 40x optical zoom, this all-in-one point-and-shoot can capture things near and far. Helping the far end of its 24-960mm zoom range (35mm equivalent) is optical image stabilization which keeps your photos sharp and in focus.

Questions & Answers

  • Can this camera imprint date and or time or both on a photo. If it can will it imprint all photos.

    After reading the manual online I found out that you can print date only, or time and date on the photo. Also dates and time cannot be removed for printing.
