I bought this to replace a SX720 which I positively loved. This one is similar with the exception of the choice of how to number the pictures. The 720 had a feature that would start a new file daily, which was extremely helpful. The SX 740 does not have this feature. Although I can manually rename a new file daily, it is an extra task I need to remember to do. I see from the reviews, that file transfer now works which it did not with the SX 720.

The Camera guide was not detailed enough for me; so I went to the Canon online owners guide and it is much better.

Hard to beat this camera at this price point. Zoom is hands down the best at this price. Wireless image transfer is a nice feature, as well as the 4K video. My wife uses the camera mainly for wildlife pictures and she's happy with it
Pros: Zoom, 4K video, screen
Cons: Exposure has a completely different feel than older model
