The ultimate camera for beginner dummies
This is the ultimate camera for beginner dummies like me. I wouldn't know how to work a pro SLR. It is super easy to use on the 'Automatic' option. The 40x zoom is amazing for a camera this size and weight. I have been advised not to use the digital zoom, because it impairs image quality. The adjustable screen is great. The lack of a touch screen is a clunky disappointment in this day and age, but it is not a deal-breaker. I am such a dummy that I can't easily find my stored images to view them on the screen. Perhaps they could have made that easier for us dummies. Overall it is a stunning piece of kit.Read full review

Frustrating
My realistic expectations were not met with this camera. I was fully aware it wouldn’t perform like my dslrs, but unless you are shooting an image with no focus it’s very poor. Altering f stops is frustrating as it seems to constantly switch to exposure settings, flash settings etc.
The plan was to have a compact camera I carry whilst working, giving images somewhere between an iPhone and my DSLR’s.
Very disappointed really Read full review

Great clear zoom
This canon camera is great for all types of photography, close up and far off. Clear viewfinder and you'll love the lift up angle screen for selfie pics. Good robust camera body but small enough to carry in the pocket. The image stabilisation is much better than previous models. All in all great value camera for the amateur photogragher.Read full review

Canon sx740 hs
I’m really impressed so far, I’m only just getting into photography, so I’ve got a lot to learn as yet, but I’m loving this camera. The picture is crystal clear, even on full zoom. It’s easy to use, and I’ve found the app and photo transferring really easy too!Read full review

Sx740hs
Absolutely brilliant compact camera. I upgraded from the sx620hs which was also brilliant, I sold the sx620hs. The 740 has some really good features.

Great little camera
40x zoom at very good pixel/optical quality - must be the best compact around for these two criteria.
Different arrangements of buttons and dials to my previous 260HS cameras, and the flash doesn't pop up automatically. Can't set a new folder page to save into every day.Read full review

My GoTo camera.
Previously had a Canon SX730 and upgraded to the 740. Excellent camera. Up until buying the 730, I used Panasonic all the time, but the Canon cameras are easier to use, the batteries seem to last longer and the colours are outstanding. A confirmed Canon user now.Read full review

fire up a canon
an extremely easy to use camera in its automatic mode giving clear images and great pictures with the x40 zoom bringing a professional close up look.
