SeekerCanon PowerShot SX740
The Canon PowerShot SX740 is okay for travel photography. Its out-of-camera image quality is decent, and photos don't have a lot of visible image noise at low ISO settings, but they aren't very sharp. Its autofocus is okay but isn't very consistent when tracking moving faces. The battery life is also disappointing. That said, the camera is very portable and easy to take wherever you go, but it can be a bit uncomfortable because of its compact size, especially if you have larger hands.
