Great for snapping zoomed in or out, predictably lens is a little slow

Reviewed in the United States on February 29, 2020

Color: SilverVerified Purchase

This model stood out at best buy as the best compact high zoom camera. It took clearer pictures (of boxes on a distant wall) and snapped then quicker than anything else I tried—a must for capturing birds, which I often like to do.

The hitch was that they didn't have them in stock at the store, and I was leaving in vacation the next day. Amazon totally saved me with 8am next day delivery (even though it snowed a bit. I sometimes wish they would relax about delivery times, but in this case it was awesome.)

The articulating screen was also a really good feature for me, as my arms are unusually weak and unsteady, and that lets me brace on my wheelchair arms while framing a shot, much of the time. Arm fatigue was not bad, although this one is heavier than the Lumix camera I had. I do miss the lens ring from the Lumix for fine adjustments of a chosen setting.

As with many cameras of this type, the lens is a little slow, but I'll take that tradeoff for less bulk. It is capable of great macros, but the autofocus gets in the way. Manual focus can get you extreme close-ups, but it's hard to tell what the focus is from the screen. (Maybe I need to figure out some more settings, I may have overlooked if this camera has focus lock similar to my old Lumix).

I'm also a fan of the rapid shooting modes, but not the way this seems to get reset on automatic after changing to another mode.

The phone app also works pretty well, a little better than the Panasonic app did on my last camera, but not drastically better.

A pocket camera with the quality of some SLR cameras, but lighter and smaller. I love mine!

Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2024

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I never travel without bringing two cameras. I used to use a SLR. Mine was about the size and weight of a brick. Add in the lenses and a camera bag... This camera fits in a pocket, is a lot lighter, and gets good quality. I don't have to change lenses to go from a closeup of a tiny flower to a shot of a deer across the hayfield. Not wanting to carry my big old camera, this is a good alternative. No lenses to change. It's not the smallest of digitals, but I need a second camera in case my cell phone runs out of charge or something. Like a cell phone, it can be set to transmit photos to your e-mail, or even to your phone.

Excellent Travel Camera

Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2023

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

When I want professional quality photos I use my canon 5D Mark IV with Canon “L” series lenses. You won’t get this caliber of photo quality from the SX740 HS. Nor should you expect to. And for up close everyday photos, it’s hard to beat my iPhone 14 Pro (the one camera I always have with me). But for situations in which I’m to far away to use my iPhone and I don’t have my 5D Mark IV and a telephoto lens handy, this camera fits the bill very nicely. When I travel, I am normally not on a photography adventure, just a vacation but always take a lot of pictures for the memories. It’s great to have a mega zoom camera that I can carry in my pocket to cover all situations. Camera focus is fast and accurate and I can always dial in the best exposure I can get (when I have the time I always prefer to go “manual” and choose the shutter speed, aperture and ISO. When I don’t have time, “auto mode” usually gets you close enough to dial in during post processing. I also am very impressed with burst shooting capabilities to capture action shots. Up to 10 shots per second and am very impressed with how it maintains very accurate focus. In most situations, picture quality is very good but not professional quality. All in all, a near perfect travel camera to have along with my iPhone.
