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.

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 And so now I am not even going on to a newer version of this camer.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!

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 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 [...]

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.

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!

Great camera for Everyone

I'va had this product over a month and I must say it is GREAT!
I've been a photo fan since a long time and since I don't wanted to spend a lot of money on a DSLR I bought this "pocket" camera. Before I didn't know what camera to buy (I was trying to decide between this one, Sony H-20 and ZS3) because I had read very bad reviews, but I decided to take a chance. At this moment it has provided me great photos with amazing quality, things that are enough for me. I decided to buy the camera too because it manual controls, and they're very useful and complete.
I must say this is the camera you must own, and if you want to expand Its features buy it together with this kit.

P.S.1 Its my first review, so excuse me for the lack of info
P.S.2 If you are worried about shooting in raw and bracketing, you could always apply the CHDK (canon hack development kit). I gives you more options when you're shooting your photos and it dpesent affect your camera firmware. The only Con about this is that the largest memory size it supports is 4gb :(

Even when the kids can't sit still and the light is less than ideal, the amazing PowerShot A570 IS lets you capture life's special moments perfectly. Optical Image Stabilizer Technology keeps images crisp even when you're zoomed way in. The ISO 1600 and High ISO Auto settings reduce blur when the lights are down low. Plus, the A570 IS is packed with easy-to-use creative and convenient features you'll love.

Customer Review :

Do not give up on your A570is due to battery low shutdown

My A570 began shutting down each time I tried to use it a few months back after using it for more than two years daily. I searched the web and found that the solution was to insert a very very tiny piece of foam (to add a little spring action) beneath the 'leaf spring' on the + battery side. Afterward, I took it out and took videos for over forty five minutes and still had battery left.

If a larger piece of foam is used, your battery will be scratched.

Happy days are here again. If it doesn't fix your camera problem, buy a new model instead.

Battery Hog!

I've been shooting with this camera for more than a year now and overall it's not too bad. I am at a bit of a disadvantage because I really don't have any other point and shoot's that I've used to compare it to. However, I am proficient at full size DSLR's, so I can spot descent quality images. And, I am impressed with the quality of images this little guy has produced. I am also pleased with how durable it has been. I have literally taken this camera around the world on several occasions and it has survived quite a few bumps and bruises. The outer case has many scars to back that claim up as well. I also carry it in my briefcase everyday as well and it's still hanging in there. It has a simple video function that also works rather well. My only beef (and, it's a big one) is this camera EATS BATTERIES! I don't think I have ever owned a piece of electronics that devours batteries like this camera. If you want to own a camera that takes a descent photograph and is rather durable, this one will fit the bill. However, please be warned that you should be prepared to carry an extra pair of batteries with you.

Flawed power circuitry

I had one of these for just over one year when the power circuitry failed. The symptom is that the camera will power down after less than a minute even with new or fully charged batteries. From my research, this is a wide-spread failure mode for this camera. Communicated with Canon. No joy. I loved the camera while it lasted but I won't do business with a company that will not support their product. I've had six Canon's over the past few years. But unlikely to buy another.

Less than impressed

I started out with an Olympus C-8080 and got this for it's smaller size. I have always heard good things about Canon but I for one, after owning this camera, am not impressed and am going back to Olympus.

Pros:
(1) It's small.
(2) It's perfect for family type pictures (ie..birthday parties, soccer games, family gatherings)
(3) I like the fact that it's basically "point and shoot" without having to worry about manually adjusting it every time.

Cons:
(1) red eye. I have never had a red-eye with my Olympus but this little Canon seems to have red-eye in every picture regardless of setting or lighting. I don't like having to go back later and fix all the red-eye errors it produces.

(2) It's zoom lacks severely. We often go out for rides in the mountains and this camera is horrible for wildlife pictures at a distance. My Olympus maintains photograph quality and integrity even when you crop it. This Canon does NOT. It has a limited zoom and the quality becomes very grainy the more you zoom in. I am very unhappy with that feature.

(3) Picture Quality. I have my Canon set on the highest quality. Granted I consider myself a novice but there is a noticeable difference in my Canon when compared with my Olympus. The pictures are not as sharp or clear with the Canon. Several of my friends and family have also noticed the difference. I am extremely disappointed in picture quality.

(4) battery life: This camera sucks up batteries like crazy. For me it almost isn't worth owning it for the amount of money I have spent in batteries for it!

Overall:

It's a decent camera but it isn't for me. I expect more out of a camera and this one fell way short of the mark. Again, this camera is a great little "family" camera..fun for vacations, parties etc..but if you want to take really good quality pictures I would suggest either moving up the Canon line and spending more money and getting a better camera or move to a different brand. I personally am going back to my trusted Olympus.

Great Camera, low battery life

I have had this camera for 2 years, and I have used it 3 times in the last year, because the batteries are always dead. I charge them, and the are dead in 5 minutes. It takes great pictures, if I could get a rechargeable lithium-ion in a "AA" size, I would never part with it. Now I can't find a good lithium camera, they look like they suck for the under $300 range.

An amazing product!

First of all, I actually had a hard time choosing a color. It is so nice owning a good-looking product. This is my first digital camera ever and I've had it since January. Unfortunately, shortly after I got it, I found out I had cancer. It's all gone now and I've actually been using it since last month.

Anyway, my daughter has been giving me some coaching tips but I've found this camera to be easy to use and it takes great pictures and video. I got this as a package deal with the cables, case, rechargeable batteries, a tiny tripod (which is worthless) and a large SD card. I've had a lot of people say I got a great deal, so keep searching on Amazon until you find it. I found the package deal totally by accident when I lost my data and had to "re-search" cameras. It was buried on page 2 or 3 of the search results.

It's great having rechargeable batteries (4 in all) but they do seem to go through a charge fast.

All of my pics have come out nice, even the ones I took in the bowling alley. The camera has a nice heft and fits into my hand well. I can't wait to learn how to use even more of the features.

Great lil camera on the GO

I am a Flight Attendant for a major USA carrier and travel alot internationally and domestic. It is small enough to stick inside my tote bag and travels very well in a front pocket should I need it on the go. Takes awesome pictures with just a click. I have not had any issues with this at all. I have also gotten so many compliments.

Love the quality of Pictures!!

I thought this camera was really great. I bought a Canon of the same level only about 2 years ago, and this one as a gift, and I can definitely see a change in the quality of pictures. MUCH better than my 2 year old camera, and I am still pleased with those pictures. I like how small it is. Good design.

Good camera for a point and shoot.

I like the fact that the camera uses AA batteries. That's one of the reasons I bought it. I own another Canon camera that takes really good pictures but I wanted one that I could slip into my purse. The camera takes good outside pictures. I did have some trouble taking inside pictures in low light. Also automatic focus was difficult. I was trying to take pictures at a fashion show in Vegas and the flashing lights behind the models and low light everywhere else caused problems that I wouldn't have had with my better Canon. But overall a good camera for everyday use. It's nice to be able to pick up a couple of AA batteries at the drug store if my rechargeables aren't ready to go. It's not that heavy and the robin's egg blue is really pretty. Would be a great first camera for kids.

Great little camera for its category

I will give it 5 stars because it is a great little camera for its category of small point and shoot. You aren't going to always get professional SLR quality images, but that's not what this camera is. (Also, you can get better battery life if you get a set of re-chargeable NiMH batteries instead of using regular alkaline AAs.)

The video clips are surprisingly sharp and clear on this camera, rivaling those on the Canon SD1200. I took some indoor family photos at Christmas, and this camera's photos were actually somewhat sharper than the very same images taken with a Sony DSC-H20, which has bad indoor noise.

The camera has easy to use features and buttons and a sturdy build. I like that it has a rounded grip on the right side. I also like the easy access ISO button.

One bad thing was that I took some of my photos using an indoor scene mode, because in the LCD screen they looked so nice and warm. However, after viewing them on a computer in Photoshop, those photos were actually too orange. So don't be deceived by what you see on the screen, apparently the color there is not totally accurate. I should have just taken the photos in Auto mode.

I love the cool design and colors of this camera. I bought the white one because it reminded me of my Electra Rosie bike. So I stuck one of my little red rose stickers that came with my bike on the camera, and now they match! Not that I'll be using my camera while I ride the bike, but still. The camera looks really cool. The white one also looks like a little Apple computer.

I would have given this camera 5 stars! Until today . . .

Wonderful little camera and I love the ability to choose options, instead of a straight point and shoot. It's a little pixelated at 1600 ISO, so that was easy. Just don't use the 1600!! Great pictures!
However, I noticed that the screen was down and thought maybe there was a button I overlooked. But after checking thoroughly online, I see that this is an ongoing problem with several of the PowerShot models. I'm terribly disappointed that I have to pay to get this camera repaired when it just hasn't had that much use in the last two years. I hope this doesn't cost more that $100 to fix. :(

Died after 14 months

Great camera. Did everything I wanted it to until one day it just died. I'd only had the camera for just over a year. I didn't drop it, it wasn't wet, and it wasn't poorly treated. In fact I had a special case for it and babied the camera. The batteries were fine, it just died. Now I have to pay an additional $200 to have it repaired.

Great Image quality, but SLOW shutter

I bought this camera shortly before the birth of my first child. Frankly, the camera has been wonderful in every way except for one -- the shutter speed. It doesn't matter if the flash is off, where the settings are, etc. --- From the moment you hit the button to take the picture, it takes nearly a second to capture the photo. I have SO MANY photos of my son with his eyes closed, or blurred images from making a sudden movement, etc. Trying to take a picture while he is moving is impossible -- especially in the higher megapixel range. If you're trying to capture that "perfect moment" I would recommend something a little better.

Our Friends went out and bought a Canon Rebel xsi when we bought our SD950, which is, granted a DSLR camera. They have remarkable pictures! We would be in the same room, shooting the exact same material of our kids going down an inflatable slide, or playing in a ball-pit and *they* have wonderful pictures, and we have very poor pictures.

So, I'm going to hang on to this camera for group photos, scenery photos, and will not hesitate to take it on vacation with me due to it's portability -- but I will be buying a Canon Rebel xsi for those moments when the SD950 will not do.

Seems pretty sturdy

Obviously there are already a slew of reviews for this but I wanted to add my two cents. I upgraded from a Canon Powershot S30 (awesome camera) to this about two years ago and have liked it quite a bit. It is a very comfortable camera to hold and the buttons are easy to find and reach, not in the way. It takes very clear pictures, although if you are using it for any nighttime shooting I would recommend using a tripod because it has a tendancy to want to blur more at night. I do wish that the macro setting was capable of a little more, but it still works well. Also the battery lasts for a long time between charges, though my view on this may be slightly skewed as the battery in my old camera wouldn't even last a day.

The titanium casing on this camera is one of my favorite features because I tend to be very rough on my things. My camera has been dropped or squished a few times with no real ill effects. I've had it drop into a creek before while hiking around and after sticking it in my oven at 100 degrees F for an hour and then letting it air out for a couple of days it seems to work fine. I was sure that it was fried but the internal clock and buttons and all still work, so I am very happy with the camera.
