    I was looking for a camera that wasn't too complicated to use easily, but was still really good quality in this price range, and I made a good choice with this one! I love the large screen, that can flip up to let you see that everyone is in frame from the front, for selfies and timer pics..!

    This camera takes FANTASTIC photos !! I have taken photos of birds that were very far away, and they looked like I was 2 feet away when I zoomed in. So small that I can carry it easily in my hand while hiking. It's a great camera for beginners, easy to use, and exceptional value for the price. So happy with this purchase !!!

    This camera is easy to use for anyone with a small enough form factor that you can take it anywhere. Both video and picture quality is superb. The flip up screen is a neat feature for anyone looking to take photos or videos of themselves. The feel of the device is excellent as well, nice weight in the hand and high build quality.

    My first camera purchase in 15 years, so I did my research. I think the Canon - PowerShot SX740 HS is by far the best camera for the money. Great still photos, wonderful video, and transfer capability out the wazoo. Great compact size for travel and zoom is terrific for a small point and shoot camera. I would recommend purchasing a second battery for those sightseeing days when everything is to your liking. The "flip-up" view screen is very bright and clear, but I would like to see more agility from the view screen. It is a great vlogging camera, but for those of us who won't be using it as a video diary camera, a nice tilt/swivel screen (especially in bright light conditions) would be great. I really love this camera!

    Absolutely love how the photos come out and how easy it is to use. I dont use the bluetooth feature as much, as I feel like there can be connectivity issues but overall I really enjoy using it.

    Great concept, not the best quality

    This is a great idea and the camera is functionally acceptable, but the quality was not what I expected at this price point. Here's a few pros and cons from my experience: PROS Has motion tracking Decent battery life (**not amazing though, don't get too excited) Able to be controlled fully via the app Comes with a 16gb SD card for recording Charges via standard usb-c Capable of full 360 degree rotation CONS Really grainy camera quality if the lighting isn't perfect Would like more shot quality control and customization Sometimes the tracking takes a long time to latch onto a new focus You cannot retrieve any playback or photos unless the camera is turned on (the app is not cloud storage) The grainy exposure of the camera really docks the most points from the Canon Pick. I am a media professional so my view may be a bit bias, but I'd expect a clearer picture or at least the ability to adjust the shot to improve the picture quality. Nonetheless, it is wifi capable and can connect directly to my phone, plus photos can save onto the app for me to easily download as well, which does make it a decent investment. However again, at this price point, a $500 camera should have much better picture quality in my opinion. I'd still recommend it though.

    Obsessed. All my friends ask me to take it with us whenever we go out, so if you don’t want to be carrying it around and being the camera person in your group then don’t get it. But it’s such good quality.

    This is exactly what I was looking to buy. I replaced my desktop and the new one is on 11. Canon does not support my old camera on that operating system. This one is supported and I can download only the new pictures. It is a little expensive but, is seems camera prices have become stupid high because everyone uses their phone. It takes great pictures and it's easy to use.

    I always thought that Canon cameras were great. And it was all true because when I have tried the Canon Powershot SX740 camera, I was surprised to see that the camera quality and the video quality is great. I think it’s pretty easy to use this amazing camera. I recommend you reading the manual book first before you start using the Canon Powershot SX740 camera for the first time. I am a beginner for photography and I think this camera is one of the best beginner Canon camera I own. I recommend this camera to everyone who is a beginner for photography.

    I bought this camera to replace a Canon Rebel T6. I was mainly using that Canon to record my nephews jiu-jitsu competitions. Carrying the shoulder bag with the camera, lenses, extra batteries was getting old. And besides the competitions which would take place about once every 3 months, the camera would just on the shelf unused. I would not take the camera on trips specifically because of the bulkiness. I was not using the camera to its full potential. So I sold it and bought this camera. Unfortunately because of covid, there haven’t been any jiu-jitsu completions but i’ve taken several photos. The zoom is outstanding for a point and shoot. Small and easy to travel with.
