Canon PowerShot SX740 HS Digital Camera

I ordered this camera for travel and hiking. I wanted a better picture quality than a cell phone camera. I like the size and the zoom lens. I carry mine with the PSC-3300 padded case attached to my belt which is very convenient to carry and access. The picture quality is much better than a cell phone in clarity and detail. It is very easy to use and when not in the auto mode it has features to adjust white balance, exposure comp, autofocus method, metering mode, image quality, ISO speed, style settings, still image aspect ratio and displaying f-stop and shutter speed number and making necessary adjustments for the picture to take. Menu access is very easy to access and use. The picture playback includes a histogram with is a must for any photographer for proper exposure and making adjustments in varying light situations. My larger camera has these features and are a must for me with my photography background. The camera connect app is very easy to use to remote control the camera and transfer pictures to my cell phone for sharing the pictures that I have just taken. would highly recommend this camera for travel or outdoor sport activities.
