Canon PowerShot SX740 HS
The pocket-sized Canon Powershot SX740 HS is perfect for travellers, or anyone on the move, thanks to its compact, portable design and ability to capture truly great stills and video.
Perfectly portable
The Canon Powershot SX740 HS is not at all big or heavy. Just 110.1 mm high, 63.8 mm wide and 39.9 mm deep…and a tick under 300 grams including battery and memory card. Now that is portable!
Big on performance
Small in nature but big in the quality it delivers, this compact camera is all you need thanks to 40x optical zoom, superfast DIGIC processing and 4K resolution. Capture everything in 20.3MP detail without carrying a heavy and cumbersome camera to do it.
Point and shoot
Getting great shots is made easy with that DIGIC 8 processor. Think of it as your photographic adviser as it manages camera settings, including Zoom Framing Assist and Hybrid Auto, so you can achieve spectacular results even when you just point and shoot.
You won't miss a thing
All that quality is nothing if you don't capture the moment. Fortunately, the Canon Powershot SX740 HS has supremely responsive shutter release and 10 fps continuous shooting.
Super selfies
Leave the phone in your pocket and grab the perfect selfie with the snappy Self Portrait mode and a flip up LCD screen.
Easy to share
It's easy to take great photos, and just as easy to share them with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi connectivity and auto transfer. This makes it a piece of cake to share and back-up photos to compatible smart devices or your home PC.

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.
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.
Easy to use
Really good features, telephoto lens is great for close ups, compact and no trouble to carry around.
Great for first time vlogers
Such a fantastic camera for first time vloggers and memory making!!
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- Zoom
- 4K video
- screen
- Exposure has a completely different feel than older model
Excellent camera
This has to be the best 4k super zoom camera on the market today.
Brilliant
Absolutely love it its fantastic takes a bit to connect it to your smart phone but its brilliant feature when it is connected because you can put it on the floor take a photograph of the sky am I will live video on your phone
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.
Amazing
I received this for Christmas and it's amazing for video and photos. Highly recommended
