- 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?
- At Best Buy, for $772.00, as of our latest check.
