Customer Ratings & Reviews

The best point and shoot digital camera available. I had an older version of this camera, used in crawlspaces and attics for over 5 years! I am hoping this version lasts as long, if not longer!

I love my Canon Powershot SX740. It is easy to use and takes great photos.

Quality of pictures great. Utter was small enough to keep in a side pocket of my purse. Very convenient while travelling through using Italy.

I decided to bug a real camera because cell phones are not great. I bought a Canon because I had one years ago and it was awesome. I was shocked to find all the cool new features like WiFi and Blue Tooth plus this amazing telephoto lens! Easy to use. Great pix. Takes a bit to focus when the telephoto is extended all the way. Would be best to have it on something solid, but I captured some great photos. Be ready to snap lots of photos and willing to trash many of them, but you will get at least a couple great shots.

This camera has all the features I need in a point and shoot style camera. Great size. Fits in my pocket. Easy to use. Simple menus.

With 2 young kids, i was looking for something I could capture all the memories and milestones with. The 4K recording is awesome and the pictures are phenomenal! The only reason i removed 1 star is because there is a delay between pics. I have read the manual and even consulted CS and its just one downside of the camera. There is a continuous shot mode, but if you are looking to capture high quality pics, there is a delay. With young kids, you may one have a brief second between a great shot and a terrible one, so for me the delay is a downside. Overall I would recommend the camera as its a pretty great camera within its pricing category.

this camera is easy to use and takes wonderful photos. Also, the Canon customer service people are very knowledgeable and patient.

Pretty easy to use but really have not explored all the options. Got this one for the sport mode takes great pictures in action.

I bought this camera to upgrade from the SX 720. Unfortunately, they changed some things that were my favorites. The "Live" setting is gone, replaced by a "Food" setting. Really? It is similar in that you can change from cool to warm and light to dark but no vivid setting. And the changes are not saved, you have to redo every time you turn the camera on. The settings knob is on top now instead of on the back which I preferred. I like the flip screen, the long zoom and the video snapshot features. But the worst part is that I can't see the screen with my prescription polarized sunglasses!

I’m new to vlogging and this has been a great camera to learn from. Easy to understand and the quality is great!

Great little camera, compact enough to tuck into my handbag while on the go. Nice photo quality, easy zoom, and highly functional viewfinder for selfies. Takes nice videos, too! The sound quality is great. Canon has always been a trusted name and they didn't disappoint with this SX740 HS. Bestbuy has a great price guarantee policy. Was able to shave $50 off the price due to finding the same camera online with a competitor.

Great camera for beginners great picture love the screen that flips forward for selfies.

Excelente nice and clear pictures very easy to handle live the quality

An amazing camera! The picture quality is beautiful and it’s super user friendly. For the price, I’m extremely happy with it.

Love this camera! Takes amazing pictures and so easy to transfer to phone via Bluetooth!

This is by far my favorite camera I've ever owned and I'm a photographer! The zoom on this camera is incredible! The quality of the pictures are so vibrant! It really brings the pictures to life! I HIGHLY recommend this camera!

I am an average Joe who when time permits insists on Digital Camera to take pictures. I think many cell phone cameras prettify pictures that I really hate. I have had Cannon's for a while so sort of biased towards canons. The flip screen is nice. Between this and my previous SXs, I say this one became just a little too big where sliding it in and out of my jeans pocket takes an effort. The ones before made it too easy to slide in pocket and carry.

Very good zoom and image quality. Very compact so makes easy to carry, point, and shoot.

I love my new camera. I love the flip up screen and the video mode. Everything is straight forward and easy to operate.

Fantastic point and shoot. It's quick, takes great pics and I love the battery life. I will say, it feels a little "fragile" when the lens is open but other than that it's great.
