I go overseas in a week. What are the chances of this being available by next Friday, in Jhb?
Hello Neil,
Unfortunately, the chances of the Canon PowerShot SX740 HS being available by next week are very slim. This was a very recent announcement by Canon and while we do have it available to look into on Orms Direct we have not yet received a concrete ETA.
Thanks,
Rachel
