    An Amazing Point-and-Shoot Camera

    For a point-and-shoot camera, this Canon is amazing! I bought it especially for the 4K video for a trip to the mountains, and the camera caught beautiful and clear 4K video of the waterfalls and streams. The sound is great, too, and the colors are vivid, even on the automatic setting. The photographs come out crisp and clear with vivid color, too, on the automatic setting. Most people think I have a much more sophisticated camera when they see my photographs.

    Easy to use, I really like how I can download straight from the camera my pictures to my phone. Also enjoy the flip screen for selfies.

    Review of Canon PowerShot SX740

    The Canon PowerShot SX740 is a really good camera. I especially like the telephoto lens which takes great photos at long distance. It also has WIFI and Bluetooth features so I can send photos to my iPhone without first having to transfer the photos to my computer. I can also turn on and operate the camera remotely, which is a good feature. I have had several Canon PowerShot cameras in the past. They have ben good cameras but they didn't have the capabilities of this one.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.
