Overview

The Canon PowerShot SX740 HS is a compact superzoom camera that packs serious reach into a body small enough to fit in a jacket pocket. Its 40x optical zoom lens covers an equivalent focal range of 24–960mm, paired with optical image stabilization and Zoom Framing Assist to help you keep subjects in frame at full telephoto. The 20.3-megapixel CMOS sensor and DIGIC 8 image processor work together to produce sharp, detailed images with accurate color, while the high-speed continuous shooting mode captures up to 10 frames per second with autofocus locked — useful for wildlife, sports, and any fast-moving scene.

The 3.0-inch tilt-type LCD screen flips 180 degrees for easy selfies and vlogging, and built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity let you transfer images to your smartphone quickly for sharing on the go. Whether you are photographing distant landmarks on a trip or recording family events in 4K, this camera offers a compelling combination of zoom power, portability, and modern features that make it a practical all-in-one solution for everyday photography.
