Our take on the Canon PowerShot SX740 HS 4K Digital Camera

The PowerShot SX740 HS is a pocket-sized superzoom with a 40x optical zoom lens, a 20.3MP CMOS sensor and 4K video. Its main draw is reach: no phone or standard compact gets close to 40x in a body this small, and optical image stabilization keeps handheld shots usable at full zoom. It suits travelers and wildlife or event shooters who want one light camera instead of a bag of lenses. Against rivals like the Sony HX99 and Panasonic TZ90, it matches the zoom range and adds 4K, but its small sensor limits low-light quality and the viewfinder-free design means composing at arm's length.

Best forTravelers who want one small camera with huge reachWildlife, bird and sports shooters on a light setupFamilies shooting school events and concerts from the back rowVloggers and casual video users who want 4K
Pros

  • Optical image stabilization helps at long focal lengths

Cons

Questions and answers

Is the SX740 HS good for wildlife and bird photos?
Yes, within limits. The 40x zoom and stabilization get you close without disturbing subjects, but the small sensor needs good light for clean detail.
Does it shoot 4K video?
Yes. It records 4K at 30fps and 1080p at up to 60fps, with a flip-up screen for self-recording.
How does it compare with the Sony HX99?
Both have 40x zooms and 4K. The HX99 adds a pop-up viewfinder and a slightly wider aperture, while the Canon is simpler to handle and has a longer track record for color straight out of camera.
Can I charge it over USB?
Yes. It charges through its USB port, so you can top it up from a power bank or laptop charger on the road.
Does it have a viewfinder?
No. Framing is done on the rear screen only, which is harder to see in direct sun.
What comes in the box?
The camera, a battery, a USB cable and a strap. A memory card and a spare battery are not included and are worth adding.
Where is the Canon PowerShot SX740 HS 4K Digital Camera cheapest?
