Canon PowerShot SX740 HS Silver 2018
The 40x optical zoom and 21.1MP 1/2.3-inch sensor in a 275g body deliver 4K video and 10fps bursts without image stabilization. Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth enable instant sharing, aided by a 3-inch tilting touchscreen for flexible framing. Best for casual travelers and beginner videographers who value extreme reach and connectivity over low-light photo quality.
