About this product
The Canon PowerShot SX740 HS Lite Edition is a remarkably compact camera that packs a serious 40x optical zoom into a body just 39.9mm deep. With a 20.3-megapixel CMOS sensor and DIGIC 8 processor, this pocket-sized compact captures sharp, detailed stills and 4K ultra HD video wherever you go. The 24mm wide-angle lens gives you versatility for landscapes and group shots, whilst that impressive zoom range lets you pull in distant subjects without lugging around extra lenses. Weighing just 299g, it's light enough to carry everywhere.
What makes this camera useful is how it balances portability with serious imaging. 5-axis stabilisation keeps footage smooth when zoomed in, and continuous shooting at up to 10 frames per second means you won't miss moments. Face detection tracks up to 9 faces automatically, perfect for family gatherings. The 3in LCD screen makes composing shots easy, while built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with Auto Transfer let you quickly share images to your smartphone or back them up to your PC. It includes a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, carry strap, and HDMI connection for playback on larger screens.

Best camera without breaking the bank
I bought this as an alternative to the G7x and can say it’s worth the money!! Resolution is so crisp yet has a nice blurring effect without ruining the quality. It’s so good for videos and literally produces no blurry pictures or lines the focus is so nice on it !
