Innovative, newcomer, or timeless favourite, these two keyboards perfectly define the Yodobashi Camera’s sales rankings for the first half of September 2025. The Ricoh GR IV hold the No.1 spot of the sales ranking, the Canon PowerShot SX740 HS secured second position in the ranking, it does shows how much people still love 40X pocket zoom cameras like the SX740 HS. Canon has just restored the production of the Compacts like Canon SX740 HS, Canon G7X Mark III and Canon ELPH 360HS camera, and the 2nd rank of the SX740HS is something that I was expecting this month, since as per the Canon sales stats itself Canon Compact Camera Comeback: Sales Soared 187% precious month, so it will also reflect in sales report card of worldwide agencies.
Breaking Down Yodobashi’s Compact Digital Camera Sales Rankings
It’s quite obvious from the ranking that the demand for compact Zoom cameras is popular among the latest generation of smartphone users, although the Canon SX740 HS camera was announced back in 2018. And basically, most of their iOS smartphones don’t give true 17X Optical zoom, including the latest iPhone 17 Pro, where we have Canon SX 740 HS features true 40X digital zoom, which gives, in turn, higher image quality and a proper 4K video capture experience.

Ricoh GR IV: The No.1 Compact Camera Making Waves with Premium Features
The Ricoh GR IV is a recent announcement from Ricoh; it’s a premium compact camera. Available at $1500 at B&H Store USA. The Camera is always in high demand, so if ur lucky, you will find it in stock; otherwise, most of us keep waiting for its stock to arrive. Take a look at the core specification of the camera (Ricoh’s special recipe that makes it No.1 in the market)
- 25.7MP APS-C BSI CMOS Sensor: Actually, the same 26 MP Sony sensor we have seen in most of the Fuji cameras, as well as the Sony A6700
- New 28mm f/2.8 Lens (Full-Frame Equiv.): Upgraded lens and optimised for optimal performance
- Improved AF and Low-Light Focusing: Hybrid Sensor locks and tracks the subject
- 5-Axis 6-Stop Shake Reduction System: You can grab clear images even in low-light conditions with a slower shutter speed with the help of an in-camera IBIS mechanism
- 3.0″ 1.04m-Dot Touchscreen LCD: Nice and easy display screen, with quick access to basic settings
- 53GB Built-In Memory & microSD Card Slot: That’s the best part, being a photographer, if you even forget to carry ur memory card, you still have 53GB space left
- 35mm and 50mm Focal Length Crop Modes: No need to worry, even if you have a prime lens, the 35mm and 50mm focal length gives you an excellent option to recompose your image.
As you can see from the specification, it’s highly impressive and made for photographers. The demand for the camera always remains high, but the supply shortages may affect future rankings of the GR IV Camera.
The Canon PowerShot SX740 HS’s showing is a strong presence just after its production revival. For the latest on top compact cameras like the Canon SX740 HS and Ricoh GR IV, follow thenewcamera.com for expert insights and updates.
