Canon PowerShot SX740 HS
Hard to beat this camera at this price point. Zoom is hands down the best at this price. Wireless image transfer is a nice feature, as well as the 4K video. My wife uses the camera mainly for wildlife pictures and she's happy with it
Pros:
- Zoom
- 4K video
- screen
Cons:
- Exposure has a completely different feel than older model

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.

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.

Got unbelievable seats for Melissa ethridge concert usually $750 and up for free! So close you could almost reach out to her. Took this camera as it did so well for YouTube videos and regular photo and the zoom was amazing! But it was horrible ruined all my footage! Couldn't believe it for a canon.

Worst camera. I read the reviews, I researched it and I thought that I was getting a really good secondary camera. Awful video quality especially in law light. And an awful noise during video playback.I don't know, maybe the camera is good, just the camera that I got was problematic.

Great features
I bought this camera as an update to my Canon SX700HS which has always been a great performer. The advantages of the SX740HS are the 40X zoom and the fold up screen which helps with taking selfies on holidays. The high resolution movies are really super on my TV. The ability to take time lapse looks great although I haven't tried it yet. My one and only gripe is that the menu doesn't provide for the ability to set the new time zone when you travel.
