I love my SX740 HS. Replaced my Panasonic DC-ZS70 with it. It's great to have a pocket sized super zoom for easily getting up close to things when I don't want to lug around a huge lens for my X-T3
Nice review. I have been using the much older SX700 as an "Every day - Everywhere Carry". YES, most current mirrorless cameras and DSLRs are way better. But this is super light, super small .. and way better than the smartphone camera. Improvements over my old model: 1. Longer zoom 30X >> 40X 2. 1080HD >> 4K 3. Higher resolution: 16 >> 20 megapixel 4. Fixed Screen >> Tilt Screen Is this line "perfect" .. of course not, but it can do quite a bit and it can fill a niche. For me, it's worth upgrading from my old model as an every day camera.
I've got the 730, same but just 1080 and it's so useful. The zoom is amazing for the size/price. If you just want 1 reasonable compact camera, I definitely recommend these.
I just bought this camera for my wife. She can no longer hold her full size canon dslr camera. Great review by the way. It’s been along time since I have left a comment but thanks for the great review.
im not a genius when it comes to cameras but the fact it can zoom so far out is exactly what i want, i am always in situations where i want to record something that is a little far away and my iphone 11 is garbage when it comes to zooming. it also has a 60 fps option at full HD and 720p hd which is amazing!
That sure sounds like decent audio from a built-in mic. By the way, this is the best camera/technology review for the "Average Joe" or "Average Jill" out there. Thanks for doing this for us!
I have had this camera since it first came out. Absolutely excellent in EVERY way but one. It really eats battery power, especially shooting 4K. The battery designed for it is inadequately small.
Bought this a few months ago because of the zoom lens and it works great as a "B" camera or even my primary when I'm just doing my daily walks! I forgot how much easier/faster/better it is compared to my phone. It's a shame that this is the end of the line for compact cameras. I was hoping Canon would put out a 750 model by now.
Hi Marly, are you used the cámara with low light or without light, how are the images? For example did you take photos to the moon? Can you share you experience or comments...
I personally don't think it's a vlogging camera either. It's more of a quick point and shoot camera. where you quickly take a pic or get a good zoom picture
It's a great little point and shot that is great if you want auto everything and jpg. I have been using this for quite a while with great results assuming you don't want great control of the camera. That focal range and zoom is amazing for a travel camera.
@@TheEverydayDad yeah that does stink one on hand but makes it easy in the other hand at least for vlogging. I wish we could close that iris a bit more on those sunny days.
Photo Gear Fun but can you atleast change the exposure? Read somewhere that you have to press the up button to enable the exposure slider on video mode
The compact zoom is the biggest attraction to this camera. Can we get some low light zoom tests? Compact zoom lenses vary. Some focus better in low light than others.
Wow, for a similar price my Sony HX99 thrashes this Canon. The sony has; touchscreen, extensive manual control, fantastic autofocus, zoom 770mm out to 1440mm with clearimage zoom, really good HDR and DRO, and razor sharp 4k. The HX99 has a lot of the new software and image processor stuff that will soon be out on other sonys. Definitely check it out if you want a pocket cam or tiny B cam.
I must say it is a great Video-Logging-camera with 4K. Did my last video for my channel with the camera. It is a huge update compared to my former videos. Also it is great for quick photos. The size is perfect. I love the cam!
Very true nothing wrong with the auto mode especially if your vlogging out in the elements with these small point n shoot cameras. Unless they have a built in nd filter manual mode can be tough. Loved the video i made a similar one a few weeks ago on a long zoom camera the lumix zs60. Looking forward to your next one have a great night!!👍👍
Good review. I have used mine for about 3 months and it is all I was hoping it would be. The telephoto images are excellent, I would have to spend a lot more for a larger camera and a lens to do what this camera does out of the box. I am not a professional photographer/videographer but I get the results I want. I upload the images to my IPad and can do a lot with my photo editing to come up with some really striking images. I can connect the card to my TV and watch the images and recording on a larger screen than my IPad. Looking forward to some great wildlife shots.
@@rinal1315 I’m not sure how long it lasts, but I would guess it would not last all day. I got a second battery. The camera really takes great pictures.
Do you think this is a good entry level vlog camera? Me and GF plan on starting a vlog channel and obviously don’t want to spend too much so we’re in the max 400$ price range. This is the only one that has stood out to me due to the great price and flip screen which is a must for my GF. Thanks in advanced for the reply
Same I have this channel for my Custom shoe business but I want to use a camera to start a new channel and vlog. I am tired of using the phone takes up a lot of space but it works.
Works pretty much like my Olympus SH-1, + longer zoom, +4k, but less battery life. Nikon A1000 has a viewfinder. Will look at both when my SH-1 gives up (no service available for it).
I've just debated to myself whether to get this camera or smartphone camera. Finally, I got a smartphone, LG V40 to be precise. They literally have the similar sensor size, though LG has 1/2.6". Only thing I'd consider Canon is the zoom functionality beside V40 has manual control, 4K60, wider lens, raw and cheaper.
I bought this over the weekend and already used for two my videos. I like it so far, but I was a bit disappointed to see there was no input for an external mic. Also, they couldn’t afford to include a USB cord in the box?
I actually love the quality of the SX740 better than your main vlogging camera... and the menu layout looks less complicated than say a Panasonic or Sony menu.
Brett G I’m probably getting this camera because I feel Canon has better colors than the last two Panasonics I’ve have and the simple menu layout. But I’m considering this manly for a zoom camera.
@@BYUEagle I just returned a Panasonic and going to buy this one instead. I have a Canon DSLR and a Sony a6000 but just want a small camera that is easy to carry along everywhere. I don't care about 4k, I have nothing to watch it on or edit, so for me this is fine as an extra little camera.
For me, point n shoots in general are interesting until they get north of $300. Then I start thinking used Interchangeable lens cameras...although I will look up super zooms on occasion. That said, I still mess around with my 8 year old Canon SX 230HS from time to time. It works great for a pocket camera and shoots 1080 / 24. If this one checks the boxes for someone there's nothing wrong with that.
Hey there hope you're fine, I'm on the look out for a vlogging camera and have a budget around 350 dollars, which one should I go for, could you please help me out here, thanks.
I have a DSLR but I am looking for a good point and shoot camera to take camping/backpacking with me. If you wouldn't recommend this camera, what else would you suggest?
Great video. I really enjoyed how you harped on the name. I have the HX730HS addition, Then I upgraded to Canon T6 then GoPro Hero 7 Black, And now use the Canon SL2. 1080 HD is good enough for me. As a visually impaired person who makes Talking head UA-cam videos 4K does not appeal to me at all.
So im going to my first ever music festival next week and the photography policy reads, “A phone camera or a small point-and-shoot without interchangeable lenses are permitted. No video cameras (Go-Pros are cool, but no poles or extenders) or professional cameras will be allowed into the event.” ….. will this camera be good to go? because I really like it!
This is a great review! I have one coming in as a gift someone so it will be a nice start. I was also wandering what would be some good editing software to use for windows?
I shoot wildlife and i have a super telephoto that I shoot handheld with and by the end of my day, get super tired. Planning to keep one of these to keep handy after i pack my gear. Great review though :)
Q: I set the dial to "scene" and I select "miniature effect" but whenever I shoot video, I don't get the miniature effect. I just get regular video. What am I doing wrong? Thank you.
I was looking into this because I am doing some traveling soon and didn't want to lug my M50 with me. After watching your video I am fairly certain this camera isn't for me.
I may buy this camera but will never use it at 4k (I see no difference) 60p 1080p is the way to go. You said you recorded this at 1080p in the settings it is auto 480p. I clicked it on and tried to watch it at 2019p but every 5 seconds in would start buffering so I watched it at 1080p and every was fine. The only cameras I ever had were the Kodak pocket cameras from decades ago long before you were born. I bought the Sony CX-405 Camcorder a few weeks ago, so if I buy this one I will have the best of both worlds How long does the battery last and can it be recharged? Thanks for a great review. PS. I never use the manual settings way to complicated for this 70+ year old man.
Great video. Was just wondering how I would add an external microphone to this camera to record videos? Such as a Blue Yeti microphone. This camera does not have a spot to attach the audio cables that come with the Blue Yeti. It only has a USB and HDMI component. Would I just have to use OBS to record my audio portion using an external microphone then sync the audio and video files on my editing software?
the obsession with 4k is engineered and will come to an end. A gopro Hero4 silver will shoot better video for $50. Although, gopros can be annoying for many reasons. This is a great video, thanks for taking the time to make it.
I love my sx740. People sleep on it but why? Its a great camera lol. Just bc its $400 doesnt mean it isnt good. If they came out with a mark ii they should make the body a bit smaller and maybe an audio jack but other than that its really cool
Nice review. What would be the next price level up from this camera in the Canon lineup that would have dual pixel autofocus while being small size and price with a reasonable lens reach?
The comparison isnt even fair. M100 all the way. A point and shoot to compare to the M100 would be the G7X mk2. And in that case i dont know man, i might end up with the G7X at the end of the day. Unless changing lenses and AF are high priorities, then M100. But since i usually choose faster lenses (f1.8) and ND filter, id probably go G7X between these two...
@@Driftuner lol yeah i first eyed the g7x but i didn't want to starve so much so as of yesterday I became a proud owner of an m100. At least i'll starve only a little
@@thetonycam3944 awesome! In my opinion you just bought one of the very most underrated cameras in the market specially for the price point. I am also in the market for one, but i might end up with the G7, simply because i dont really care about changing lenses (and the lenses on the G are very good for a point and shoot) and because i dont aspire to be a "pro" and improve my skills, im just a regular consumer really. So the even smaller format of the G will inspire me to carry it around more often to more places. I know myself enough and if i buy an M100 or an M50 i will baby it waaay too much any never take it anywhere lol. Have fun dude!
@@Driftuner great! When I get a little money i might get myself a g7x. I need cameras solely for making videos on my channel not really as a pro photographer. Thanks for the input I really appreciate it!
@@Driftuner i keep getting back to this comment and more and more i feel good about my purchase lol. The m100 will probably be the subject of my next vlog lol
I was hoping to get this last year, but I had to settle with a Nikon Coolpix B600 (which is doggy doo-doo). This year, I will hopefully be able to get it before it gets killed off...
I have this camera and HATE it. I wish I did more research before buying it. Whenever I take a photo, an ugly smoothing effect is added and for the life of me, I can’t figure out how to fix it.
This is my main vlogging camera, and I personally love it
How does it handle still photos though? I don’t shoot videos at all, just looking for a good still shooter with awesome zoom
@@TellurdogIsayhi its good, I bought it 6 days ago. im very happy with it
I'm going to buy iy because it does not have a touch screen just a pain on a small compact camera.
How do you get it to shoot 4K?
How about taking video in low light? It's good enough?
I was not gonna invest in this camera but after watching this I'm totally gonna buy this one day!
Did you and was it worth every penny?
Did you totally buy it?
I love my SX740 HS. Replaced my Panasonic DC-ZS70 with it. It's great to have a pocket sized super zoom for easily getting up close to things when I don't want to lug around a huge lens for my X-T3

ED: “I love 4K”
Couple videos ago: “It’s a hassle to edit!!!!”
I did say in this video 4k isn't the only thing you should consider, plus the a roll for this video was shot in 1080p.
And for the reference, in 3:26 He Mentioned that he preferred 1080 personally...
I have had this camera since it first came out. Absolutely excellent in EVERY way but one. It really eats battery power, especially shooting 4K. The battery designed for it is inadequately small.
hi! do you know how long the battery last with recording 4k videos?
@@nguyennamviet1858 It only lasts about 10-15 mins in 4k mode. When shooting 1080, you can get 30-45 minutes of continuous recording out of it.

Photo Gear Fun by manual does that mean you cant even change the exposure when taking videos???
@@MonJahrenel That's right you basically have no manual control when shooting video. The shutter speed, aperture, and ISO are set by the camera.
Photo Gear Fun but can you atleast change the exposure? Read somewhere that you have to press the up button to enable the exposure slider on video mode
Try to use it on 1080p, this will eliminate the cropped look of the video. For what's it's worth, it is a great value of a camera.
And is that guaranteed? Cause if the video doesn’t look so cropped I’ll get one
what camera would you suggest for blogging roughly around the same price range?

honestly I thought the indoor B camera film looked amazing for such a small sensor.
Good review. Just wish you would have included some low-light tests.
Buying this for my sister's birthday, I have m50 myself but I think she doesn't need something that expensive
Great video. I really enjoyed how you harped on the name. I have the HX730HS addition, Then I upgraded to Canon T6 then GoPro Hero 7 Black, And now use the Canon SL2. 1080 HD is good enough for me. As a visually impaired person who makes Talking head UA-cam videos 4K does not appeal to me at all.
What if my main use for this camera is to take photos? Would this suffice? Especially at night.
No MANUAL video mode, oh my. You just saved me $400! 😮💨

I am also in the market for one, but i might end up with the G7, simply because i dont really care about changing lenses (and the lenses on the G are very good for a point and shoot) and because i dont aspire to be a "pro" and improve my skills, im just a regular consumer really. So the even smaller format of the G will inspire me to carry it around more often to more places. I know myself enough and if i buy an M100 or an M50 i will baby it waaay too much any never take it anywhere lol. Have fun dude!
@@Driftuner great! When I get a little money i might get myself a g7x. I need cameras solely for making videos on my channel not really as a pro photographer. Thanks for the input I really appreciate it!
@@Driftuner i keep getting back to this comment and more and more i feel good about my purchase lol. The m100 will probably be the subject of my next vlog lol
I was hoping to get this last year, but I had to settle with a Nikon Coolpix B600 (which is doggy doo-doo). This year, I will hopefully be able to get it before it gets killed off...
Would you take this one over a Pana ZS80 ?
I have this camera and HATE it. I wish I did more research before buying it. Whenever I take a photo, an ugly smoothing effect is added and for the life of me, I can’t figure out how to fix it.
I hate this shit too man I actually am gifting it away for Xmas
mine has a filter when I use it, i don’t know how to remove it, it looks soft and blurry :(
Finally, but i bought the d3500 anyway
