One of the standout features of this camera is its 40x optical zoom, which is accompanied by an optical image stabilizer and zoom framing assist. This means that you can get up close and personal with your subject matter, without worrying about camera shake or blurriness. The zoom framing assist is particularly helpful, as it helps you to keep your subject centered in the frame, even when you're zooming in or out.
Another great feature of the Canon Cameras US Point and Shoot Digital Camera is its ability to shoot 4K video and 4K time-lapse movies. This means that you can capture stunning footage in incredibly high resolution, which is perfect for creating high-quality videos or time-lapse sequences.
In addition to its impressive video capabilities, this camera also features a 20.3 Megapixel CMOS sensor, which delivers sharp, detailed images with accurate color reproduction. This is particularly useful when shooting in low light conditions, as the sensor is able to capture more light than other cameras in its class.
Finally, the Canon Cameras US Point and Shoot Digital Camera is also equipped with high-speed continuous shooting, which allows you to capture fast-moving action with ease. Whether you're photographing sports, wildlife, or other fast-paced subjects, this feature ensures that you never miss a moment.
Overall, the Canon Cameras US Point and Shoot Digital Camera with 3.0" LCD is an excellent choice for anyone who wants a high-quality camera that delivers exceptional image quality, impressive video capabilities, and a range of advanced features. Highly recommended!
This is a fine camera, and I did a lot of side by side comparisons with my iPhone 11.
In low light conditions like sunrise and sunsets my iPhone was the clear winner in color richness and clarity. In daylight they we’re close. Both have excellent picture clarity.
Where the Canon was clearly superior is zoom capability. There was no contest. When taking video on max zoom it was hard to hold steady, but when zoomed back in about half way, the image stabilization kicks in and is superb.
The WiFi and internet features on the camera are spotty at times but adequate. I think the iPhone edges out the Canon for online ease and convenience, but it’s still a nice feature.
One disappointment was when I tried to photograph a double rainbow over the ocean, the Canon wouldn’t zoom back quite far enough to capture it from end to end. My iPhone had no problem. Wide angle wins on the iPhone 11.
The flip screen is great for selfies. Easy to see in most outdoor lighting conditions.
There are a lot of features packed into the Canon SX740, hence the learning curve. A touch screen would have been a nice extra addition for $400.
All in all this is a great little camera and was what made me switch over from Nikon.
I do think you will enjoy it as a true stand alone still and video camera.
-40x zoom
-Great pictures
-Autofocus works well
-Sturdy metal design
-Has selfie mode so you can flip the screen
-Bright flash
-Good quality video
-Good value
-Compact and portable
-Good iOS app for connecting to camera
-Easy to use
The Bad:
-None
The Bottom Line:
I just took this camera to Alaska (pics of glaciers in photos) and it worked great. We were on a cruise so I wanted something with more zoom than my iPhone 8 Plus. I would have brought my SLR but I haven’t been bringing the SLR as much on trips since it’s bulky. This SX740 is small and lightweight enough to put in my pocket. As for the pictures, they turned out great as the auto focus and zoom worked well. The camera took good videos also. It has a selfie mode so you can flip the screen up so you can see the pics you’re taking. You can also connect the camera through the Canon Connect iOS app. I connected to the camera easily and downloaded certain pics I wanted to send immediately. Overall I would recommend this Canon SX740 to complement your camera phone in your travels!
