I bought the Panasonic - LUMIX DC-ZS70 instead and have been amazed with how crisp/clear/sharp the 4k video is. I read someone's comment about being able to change the sharpness settings on this canon though, and I wondered if you have tried shooting video after adjusting those settings to see if it was less "soft"? (They said after hitting the menu button while on video setting you can change it to "standard" instead of "auto" then bring up some menu including sharpness/contrast.) I am really curious if that helps at all.

Just bought this camera a week or so ago. I have 2 G model point and shoots so familiar with the concept. Reviews elsewhere panned the sharpness of the lens - I did not see this at all. Very sharp, as noted - good colors. Definitely a long zoom, a steady hand or support a benefit. First thing I noticed is this camera is equipped only for a wrist strap, not a over the head strap. Not sure about this. Also while I understand many have no desire to read the manual - an old-timer like me needs to know how to do things, what was included in the box was more of a quick start guide than anything of substance. Are we really saving trees? Or money for Canon! Thanks for the review.

I just bought it yesterday. I've been trying and playing it around. It's been good for me but I can't wait to try it on plane spotting after winter. What's bugging me off is that when you record, and it is focused on the nearest thing like when you do vlog like waking up and it's focused in your blanket and when you switch it over to your face it has a lot of difficulties focusing on you. You have to stop recording and let it focus and start recording again. I just got it so. I'll see how it will work for me.

I got the sx740 for Christmas as a gift and here I am still researching cameras so I can decide to exchange/return before the return period ends. Here are my thoughts about the sx740: I like the way it looks and feels, there are good feature options, images are good for a point and shoot, and the zoom is great. I wanted a camera that could take better images then my Google Pixel 2xl. Although I normally have my phone on me, I have missed out on taking many pictures because my phone battery is low or I don't want to take the chance on damaging my phone by taking it in and out of my purse. (I miss the old days where I had my Samsung 105ti 35mm film camera to solely rely on and ran to develop my 24-36 pictures when the film was done vs over the years having 20,000 pictures on memory cards left undeveloped.) Back to the sx740. I know it has a bigger sensor then my Pixel 2xl but really I haven't seen much difference. I don't care of the 4k feature (to me that feature is for marketing purposes to get a buyer to buy a camera just as 4k TV's). I use a camera for images mostly. I feel the sx740 is more of a vlogging camera. Overall, in my opinion this is a good camera but it isn't for me unless I decided to jump on the You tube vlogging train. For the price of the camera, there are cheaper options that will deliver the same as point and shoot cameras go. My 6 year old Samsung PL120 14mp and my 8 year old Kodak easyshare c195 are the same quality. Thank you for a Including your smartphone comparison in this video, it was helpful and true in my case with my Google pixel 2xl (same camera specs as the pixel 3/3xl)

Thanks for the review. When you say "the 4K is a bit SOFT, and really isn't a big improvement over the 720P".. are you saying the sharpness of the 4 K isn't as good as the 720P or are you saying that the Canon's 4K sharpness isn't as good as the camera alternatives out there? Also, wouldn't the resolution of the 4K far out distance the 720P?.. that, in itself, making it a significant improvement over the 720P? I'm a bit confused.
@Reviewlamp5 жыл бұрын
When exactly did I say 720p?? In the video I compared it to the 4k to the 1080p video quality, not the 720p. As for your question: The 4k isn’t a noticeable improvement over the camera’s own 1080p video. Additionally, it is also much softer than comparable cameras shooting 4k video. And what I mean by softer, is the lack of sharpness and dynamic range.
@WilliamJacques5 жыл бұрын
Sorry, I really meant 1080p. So, you are saying the 1080p from t6his camera is not as sharp and has lower resolution than the camera's 4K. Isn't it technically impossible for it to have lower resolution that 1080? How can that be? @@Reviewlamp

Have had both Canon and Panasonic cameras and am sticking to Canon. Colours are superb and really do pop out. Panasonic fails for me in menu settings. You can change a setting which automatically can trigger another change and changes the photo settings elsewhere. Have the Canon SX740 HS and the Canon G5 X Mkll with a larger 1” sensor, but much shorter zoom range, but gives much more defined photos. Goos combination and both easily carried around. Will stick to Canon in the future.
