Canon PowerShot SX740 HS review

The SX740 HS makes some positive steps forward from the SX730 HS, and is capable of producing nice images and good-looking videos. It's a sound option for those who just want the camera to do all the work, although the absence of a viewfinder, touchscreen and raw shooting mode means it can't be said to offer especially good value for money compared to rivals.
Pros:
  • Huge, stabilized zoom lens
  • EOS-style user interface
  • Images show nice colors
  • 4K video reasonably detailed
  • Fast autofocus system
  • Good face detection AF
Cons:
  • No EVF
  • Screen not touch-sensitive
  • Image quality compromised at longer focal lengths
  • Effects of noise reduction and over-sharpening are visible
  • No raw shooting
  • Limited image quality control

Great Camera for Hiking Trips

This small camera has a great zoom lens and lots of features. I would have given it a 5 star but the main negative I have found is the delay in focus when you zoom in on an object.

Another great Canon P&S

I have been using Canon since the early 80's, so I am biased towards them. This camera has improved on earlier P&S models with a dedicated network button. It is so much easier now to transfers photo's to your computer or whatever. The 40x zoom really needs a mono-pod at the least to keep it steady.

Great zoom and picture quality. Poor build and con

I am a smart phone camera user and I wanted to take a step up, take better quality photos. I was drawn to the SX740 because of the 40 X zoom and the 7.6 frames per second still shooting. Having had a chance to try the camera out I am impressed with the picture quality.

Some Unusual Features

One of the main reasons that I bought this camera was its Manual Focus feature. Unfortunately I have not yet figured-out how to effectively use the Manual Focus. With my limited experience with the camera, I usually give-up on Manual Focus and let the camera do the focusing.

Amazing build quality and photos

I've spent over a month with this camera now and having never owned a dedicated camera I would never go back to using a phone. The photo quality is amazing with vivid colours and sharp detail. It has a brilliant zoom lense that really lets you get in close.
