Editorial Review :

Canon's iconic ELPH design achieves a stunning new evolution with the PowerShot SD750 Digital ELPH. Utterly simple edge lines and cut surfaces gleam subtly with high-grade finishes. Of course, style means little without substance, and here the SD750 Digital ELPH more than delivers. 7.1 megapixels and DIGIC III create magnificent images, while exciting advanced technologies include Face Detection, Red-eye Correction, and time-lapse movies. Always sized to go, the SD750 Digital ELPH is now extra-durable, with a tough scratch-resistant coating on its anti-reflective, brilliantly colorful 3.0-inch LCD screen.

Black spots on the lcd display

I own this camera since about 2 years, but now I'm experiencing what seems to be a known issue with canon SD : Black spots on the lcd display (see [...]).
It took great indoor pictures, above average outdoor pictures, I love the size but now this camera is useless as this black spot appears on pictures as well as on the LCD display or on VGA movies. Another weak point of this model is the battery life, after six month I couldn't get more than 80 pictures, now after 2 years, the battery can barely make 20 pictures, I guess I need spare battery. So in conclusion, I probably no longer choose a canon SD for my next digital point and shoo.

Canon PowerShot SD750 7.1MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Silver)

I've had 2 mega pixel nikon coolpix cameras that were better than this and also a 4 mega pixel canon that outshined this one.

Quality cons: Grainy! Crazy grainy! On all settings. Disappointing!

Flash pros: Fast flash recovery when battery is fresh

Flash cons: Too bright, even taped some paper over the flash to block some light which looked ridiculous but sometimes helped. And to those who are captain obvious, yes I lowered the flash setting to the lowest and tried many different settings.

Battery pros: Charges fast especially if you have a couple to use while the others recharge.

Battery cons: Sometimes the camera takes a long time to recover from flash. If it wasn't so bright, maybe it wouldn't take so forever! And I always used the Canon brand recommended.

Durability: It did not last long. One day I got the "lens error, restart camera" message. Perhaps it was cold sensitivity?? Still a mystery to me. Most everything works fine now EXCEPT a slight whining noise a blur on the lens and which essentially renders all the photos useless.

Conclusion: I will be replacing this digital camera but probably a cheaper nikon, one that lasted much longer. For approximately two hundred dollars, this is definitely not worth it. OVERRATED. But those ads with the blond, blue eyed tennis player were epic. No wonder the price is down. Still not worth it!

Quickly deteriorates

I bought this camera in 2007 because of the good Canon name and the beautiful three inch lcd. I took good care of it, kept in in a protective case at all times and never scratched nor dropped it. Everything was good until about 1 year and a half after purchase. Issue #1: The on/off button stopped working. It sucked, but I could live with it since the display button could also turn it off and on.

But then shortly after, the zoom stopped working correctly. Issue #2: It would zoom in close up, but wouldnt zoom back out again. I would have to turn the camera off and turn it back on again to get the display back to normal. I lived with that too because if i turned the camera off, it would go back to its original distance.

But now at January 2010,three years later, issue #3: the button to shoot a picture will not work at all. This happened out of nowhere, I still have never dropped the camera nor carried it without a protective case. The camera will not take a picture. I can still look at all the pictures on my SD card that I had taken in the past, but it no longer will take new pictures. Canon says they will fix it for $100, but with good cameras at $150 now, I would rather run to Best Buy and get one of those, instead of the hassle of mailing it in, paying $100, then waiting a few weeks to get it mailed back.

In the end, there were good pictures when it was working, but in my experience with this camera, it stops working well quickly. It damages way too easily, all by itself. I wouldnt purchase this if I were you, but if you still decide to purchase it, I would highly suggest purchasing a plan that covers it over three years. It starts to break after the 1 year warranty and keeps on breaking.

The Best Camera Ever!

This camera is one of the greatest cameras I have ever used. I travel ALOT during the summer and with this camera all of my memories have been kept. It is very easy to get used to and after, you dont want to use a different camera ever again. My problem was when we were running through the rain it fell out of my pocket into the lake, and ofcourse no good camera likes that. And so now I am not even going on to a newer version of this camer. I bought the exact same kind.

The pictures at wonderful and the zoom is outstanding! It takes very clear zoom pictures and has many great settings. There is a setting my friend likes, who is a photographer and doest have that setting on his camera, that picks out different colors and makes everything else black and white, right when you take the picture!

This camer is the way and the only way to go!

Canon is the BEST!!

I love my Canon SD750. My camera will be two years old in May. It takes really good pictures and video. If you have fat fingers then the camera might be hard to use because the buttons are small. The screen is 2.5 inches, which is nice. If you are looking for your first camera, then buy a canon. The model doesn't matter because my mom's canon is a 3.1 MP and it takes good photos too. When you are setting up your camera, make sure it's set up to the best quality because that's the only way to get the best photos. For example I have my camera set to: Superfine. I also suggest you buy a 2GB SD card or a 4GB Sd card. I have a 2GB Kingston SD card and I really like it. I bought my camera and SD card from [...]

After 1 Year fell apart

I got this camera in January of 2009. And I LOVED it! Took fantastic pictures (good enough to sell - I'm a photographer with many cameras) portable and the battery lasted a long time. BUT at the beginning of February all of a sudden I'd put batteries in and they would last about an hour. Next thing I know I pull it out of it's case and the silver button on top flipped off on the street and I couldn't find it. It still worked, however. Now when I put new batteries in they last about 3 or 4 pictures and then are drained. It's over a year, so warranty is shot. It makes me so sad. I loved this little camera. Now I'm leery of getting another little canon.

Battery shorting

Six months after purchase, the battery began shorting- meaning new batteries would last less than one hour in the camera.
I sent it in for repairs and it worked fine for about a month or so.
It began shorting again, so I returned it a second time.
The lab was unable to duplicate the problem and therefore I was not entitled to a refund or a replacement.
The camera is still under warranty at this time but this is of no use to me.

I am extremely disappointed with Cannon's customer service.

I will not be purchasing another cannon based on my customer service experience.

Wonderful Camera designed to break

This camera takes WONDERFUL pictures, except like many other reviewers say, it will no longer stay on for more than 30 seconds before saying "replace the batteries." It is still in warranty, because I only bought it 7 months ago, but of course I lost the receipt, so I'm SOL. They still refuse to tell me how to get it fixed out of warranty or how much it would cost. DO NOT buy this camera, or any other models following it. A family member has gotten the newer one, the A1100 IS, which is more or less an upgrade to this one, and has the same exact problem. I also have a friend with this camera who ALSO has the problem! My mom however, with the A590, which is a little older, has absolutely no problem with hers, and its nearing two years old now. We have always owned Canon cameras, and replaced them every couple years as they broke (after 4 years, more reasonably) or my sister got them lost, and we have never had a problem until now. My respect for Canon has just drained from 5 stars to 1 star.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Terrible battery life

I was given this camera last Mother's Day and loved it for about 6 months. The camera now says change batteries even when I have just put new batteries in it. Last night I had a "Girl's Night Out" party and I went through 8 batteries and only was able to take 10 pictures. That is beyond bad...Don't buy this camera.

camera lens got stuck after 1 year

Just one year after we bought this camera we were taking a picture and suddenly the lens got stuck in extended position. We had just taken a picture a minute before, then this happened. The camera doesn't work anymore, it makes some noises like trying to move the lens, but it doesn't do anything. I found similar complaints about this and other Canons in the web after searching for the error message "lens error" or "stuck lens".

Other than that it was a so-so camera while it worked, slow to recharge after a flash (using alkaline batteries). The focus wasn't too great (even with the image stabilization feature) and the colors were not as vivid as a Panasonic that we had before.

Excellent deal

The camera itself it wonderful - very easy to use and easy to carry around. My husband and I needed a new camera for our upcoming trip to Las Vegas. We have tested it around town, on a trip to upstate New York, and at a stock car race. I've been very impressed overall with the quality. The only complaint is the lag time between shots. It seems a bit long. All the accessories are decent quality and made the out-of-the box experience a breeze.

Dependable camera

I am an independent insurance adjuster and while I use this camera for personal photography I mostly use it in my work. I had the Power Shot A 630 before and while it was good, it is bulky and hard to fit into your pants pocket. The big plus with it was the flip view finder that was most handy. There are other cameras that are more compact than this one but most of them do not have a viewfinder. I find a viewfinder most helpful when you are out on a sunny day with the sun on your screen.

If you use the camera to transfer your photos from camera to your PC you are going to find that it has a hearty appetite for batteries so I suggest you invest in a card reader. If you take a lot of photos, a card reader will pay for itself in short order.

My biggest complaint about the camera is it is easy to change the settings on it and not know it. When climbing ladders, I put it in my pocket so it sometimes changes to another setting without me knowing it. For its size the zoom is good but you always would like more. I would prefer if it had a little more wide angle setting for some of the shots I have to take. The flash is OK and does a pretty good job eliminating redeye and I suspect does just as well as its competition in terms of effect distance, harshness and redeye reduction.

The quality appears to be excellent. I have not had one performance problem with it even though I have dropped it a couple of times. By the way, the A630 is still going strong too. When you are out on a claim you can't afford for your camera to quit on you so the A630 goes along as a back up. The only time I sue it is when I need the flip view finder.

Let's face it, since the coming of the digital age, Canon has been the number 1 seller and there is a reason for that. I also have a Canon Rebel SLR that I bought right after I retired from professional photography and it has also held up well and provides excellent exposures.

Gets the job done

This is a great camera for the everyday person. It's lightweight and simple to use. The zoom features are great. The only downfall is the delay it sometimes has when trying to take multiple pictures. Perhaps there are other features that I could use to change that, but I don't feel like taking the time to try. Asides from that it takes great pictures.

Decent video, unreliable everything

I've had this camera for several months now and it's been back for warranty repairs twice. First for the screen going dead, second for the lens retraction mechanism failing. Those were both fixed under warranty with little hassle aside from lost time. The frustrating thing about this camera is the unreliable file system that it uses. Multiple times the camera has taken it upon itself to completely erase the SD card when trying to take a picture or movie. Today it erased an entire day's worth of movies and photos (including my son's first bike ride) and only kept the last few movies recorded.
Also, unless the camera is set in completely manual mode it is too slow to auto-set while taking photos. It can take up to a couple seconds from button press to image capture.
The image quality is only so-so unless the photo is taken in bright light (outdoors in sunlight). Even normal indoor room lighting results in noisy images unless the flash is used.

First when I bought this camera it was amazing. Amazing quality pictures, great zoom features, and so on. Then, something happened where my face finder stopped working. Then, after about a year I had this lens error. My friend has this same camera, the second time they used it it got the same lens error. Canon has no solution for this problem and I know a lot of people who are very rightly upset that this very expensive camera has a flaw that is not repairable. Be very careful when purchasing this product.

Not a good camera for Canon

I have a professional Canon Camera (5D) and love it. I bought this camera to tote around in my purse when the other camera is too big. Many problems with this camera. First, it doesn't work with my Card Reader. I've NEVER had a problem with any camera I've used with it, but this camera "writes" the picture to the card differently, so it doesn't work. You have to use their software. The pictures are an odd size ( about a 6x8) so when you go to have them printed as a 4x6, the bottom is cut off along with the date stamp. The flash doesn't pop-up by itself... it's a manual process. This is not always a bad thing if you don't want the flash, but you may miss a few pictures when you forget to pop it up.

The f/stop is usually 2.8 for many settings whether it is for the "mountain setting" or the "portrait setting". If you don't know what this means, don't worry. In a nut shell, the focus area is too small and if someone is standing slightly behind someone else... they will be out of focus. Very crappy setting for snapshots. The shutter speed is usually too slow for indoors... translating to blurry pictures if someone is moving (when flash is not on). If the flash is on, it will "freeze" the motion but will be really bright.

The self timer doesn't work.

There's more, but I have to say, I'm really disappointed in this camera.
