Canon SX740 HS Review! Easy to Use Travel Camera?

I normally travel and vlog with my heavy Sony A77 DSLR and Olympus TG3 Tough camera ( https://amzn.to/2LSbFCc ) . I love both of them, but I wanted to lighter zoom travel camera for vlogging and light packing. I bought the Sony HX99 ( https://amzn.to/2WgNilF ) two months ago and thought it had all the right specs and a electric view finder for bright days . However, the small size and touch screen was an issue for my big hands as I often missed focus by accidentally touching the screen.

I got Canon SX740 HS 40x optical zoom travel camera! I got the Canon SX740 special bundle with case and memory card at Costco.com for $399 but it may be gone by now. The Canon SX740 is sold online for about $379- $400: https://amzn.to/2YzuA6n

I liked the size of the Canon SX740 HS as the grip fits my hand better and had very similar megapixel and optical range without the touch screen. It was also $50 less than the Sony HX99.

I do prefer the Sony electronic viewfinder, however the easy of use and fit makes makes the Canon the camera I reach if not my Samsung S9 smart phone ( https://amzn.to/2YvZpsC ) .

Pros:
AWESOME Zoom (Canon glass lens with 40x optical zoom and additional 2x digital zoom)
Fits larger hands
light weight
Easy camera setup and connection to Smart phone
Warm saturated photos and video
electronic viewfinder for photographing in the sun,
USB charging (so I can use my cell phone charger)
compact size
Battery charger included
Face tracking
fast autofocus
Under $400
Compact Digital 20 MP
4K Video
Flip screen LCD for VLOGGING and selfies

Cons:
Image quality is not as good as expected (probably due to the small sensor)
Higher ISO gets fuzzy
Low light is not as good as Sony
Need a tripod or support for 40x zoom
Hard to manual focus
Macro photography with zoom lens is hard

Conclusion:
Overall is it worth it? If you want to travel or hike with just a smart phone and need a small ultra zoom camera with a lot of great features to take a photo or 4k video to post to your favorite social media platform, this may be the one. Light, compact , easier to handle for larger hands, and full of utility. The flip monitor is good for light vlogging or selfies. Don’t expect to zoom into your photos for lots of detail, because of the small sensor size its kinda muddy.

I now reach for my Samsung S9 for fast selfies and photos. My Canon SX740 HS for travel and long zooms. My Olympus TG3 for travel, macro and underwater photography. My Sony A77 DSLR for high detail photo and video shoots.

32 DEGREES COOL Performance Mesh Boxer Brief! REVIEW!

I bought a box of 32 DEGREES COOL performance mesh boxer brief from Costco a month ago. Its also sold online : ( https://amzn.to/2E1GDRQ ) . I believe I bought it for about $15 for a 3 pack. I bought them as travel briefs for a business trip so I can wash them over night. The performance mesh breathes really well and very smooth. I also bought some Exofficio Mens Travel Boxer Briefs in a three pack for $16 on clearance! Exofficio travel costs about $15 or more each online! ( https://amzn.to/2vzWjHs )!

Compared to the Exofficio travel briefs, the performance mesh was softer, but felt less durable. I will wear both of them for few months and look forward to do a follow up review.

Trying out 3 Steering Wheel Covers on my Honda! Review ($15-$20)

Steering Wheel Cover Review ($15-$20) – I bought 3 steering wheel covers for my 2018 Honda Clarity and Accord in different styles ( https://amzn.to/2EyDJ7Q ) to try out. Of all my Honda’s I found that the Clarity’s steering wheel was harder and colder during my morning drives. I was wearing gloves to void touching the cold steering wheel. So I decided to go shopping for a good steering wheel cover that was soft and insulated me from the cold. My Youtube vlogs may also have associated affiliate links to products that may earn from qualifying purchases.

I first bought a $12 Walmart Auto Drive Steering wheel cover for 14-15 inch steering, however while it looked good, it was too big for my Honda steering wheel. It had extras space on the sides of the wheel and was not snug.
The other two universal 15 inche wheel covers were off of Amazon. SEG Direct microfiber leather steering wheel cover ( https://amzn.to/2EzN3sc ) which was very popular $16 with a lot of reviews and a textured surface. SHIAWASENA Steering wheel cover $16
( https://amzn.to/2XsIEP6 ) which had a smooth surface and patterned with red stitching.

Both of these steering wheel covers did not feel like real leather, even though the description said “genuine leather” . Both installation of these covers were a little more difficult than the one purchased at Walmart. Tight fitting and no slip, they did not have any gap after the install. The only gripe is the packaging crease on the covers. With the bend shipping, the creases showed on the material. More so on the SEG brand with multiple bends in packaging. For my 2018 Honda Clarity, both 15 inch covers fit perfectly. Only time will tell whether the material will be durable in the sun and car heat. I kept the SHIAWASENA one on my Clarity and may return the SEG cover as I wanted a smooth feel.
