Summary: Great Pictures, Great Price
Comment: I bought this camera after using an Olympus for the last 2 camera's I've owned. I wasnt getting the quality pictures I need from the Olympus, and I've seen other people with the Canon, which seemed to take great pic's.

The only problem I encountered so far is the battery. Straight out of the box, I charged it completly. I used it to take about 10 test pictures & it said the battery was depleted. This bothered me immensely. I called Amazon, and the rep told me to charge it up again. And if I still had a problem, I could send it back. I did recharge it 2 more times & I haven't had a problem with it again since.

I will say this: The camera takes AWESOME pictures. I've managed to capture clear action photo's. The picture's are sharp & the camera is very easy to use.

Summary: a very good camera
Comment: I bought the camera last month from Amazon at $169.99, and am very pleased by its performance. The shooting speed is super fast, the quality of the pictures is awesome. Once I had it, I didn't want to touch my another camera any more, a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W80, which I bought last summer. Overall, SD750 is a great compact camera, plus the price is really affordable.

Summary: Excellent Point and Shoot in an Excellent Package
Comment: This camera is predominantly used for taking pictures of family/friends when I go out on weekends and amateur photography for when I go on vacations or big events (ie. Mets Games). I've taken 2-3 GB's of photos/videos under various settings and have had it for one month.

I was torn between this and the Canon A720IS. The A720IS is better in that it has Image Stabilization (IS) and a 6x optical zoom (SD750 = 3x OZ), however, is much bulkier and uses AA batteries. Both are at excellent price points. Ultimately, I went with the SD750 because of it's 3" lcd, excellent battery life and compact design.

PRO's:
+ 3" LCD Screen- I have never used an optical viewfinder and see no purpose in it. As such, I'm glad Canon did away with it and replaced the space with a large LCD screen. The screen is bright, sharp and is easy to see in bright light conditions.
+ Compact Design- This is a tiny camera that can easily fit in one's pocket, but large and sturdy enough to feel solid when holding it. At this point in my life, a camera I can take anywhere is more important than a camera that can take professional quality photos.
+ Excellent Photo Quality- This camera takes excellent large photos under almost any condition, especially low light settings. The in-camera MY COLORS software is impressive, not just a gimmick. I use it in almost every picture I take, whether I want to emphasize one specific color or shoot a B&W picture and illuminate just one color. However, the "Color Swap" feature is useless.
+ Price Point- At $160, this camera is a tremendous value. Canon packs a lot into this package and SD memory cards are dirt cheap when compared to Sony's memory sticks.
+ Speed- Turns on and takes pictures within 2-3 seconds.
+ My Colors- The VIVID feature which accentuates a specific color in a photo (ie. a blue ocean or green grass) is solid and something you will use a lot.
+ Stitch Assist- The stitch assist software is a little elementary but does help create some incredible panoramics. Suggestion: take a few panoramic shots of your target because the pc software may butcher the stitching.

CON's:
- Flash too strong- Portrait shots taken in low light (ie. at a bar) can come out too bright because of the flash. Adjustments can be made to compensate.
- 3x Optical Zoom- Could use a stronger optical zoom, 3x is useless.
- Color Swap- MY COLORS is an amazing in-camera software set, but the Solor Swap feature within My Colors just doesn't work as well as advertised.

Bottom Line: With an excellent price point, great photos, large LCD screen, and compact size, the Canon SD 750 is a solid buy from a company that has dominated this end of the market. If you're more of a photographer and don't mind carrying around a larger camera, the A720IS may be a better alternative.

Summary: Outstanding Camera For The Money
Comment: I've owned Canon Powershot cameras for the last 8 years. I must say that they absolutely get better with age! This is my 4th Powershot and I am not disappointed whatsoever.

The screen is really bright and big... the extra .5 inch that makes it 3" total is really worth it. The startup time is less than a second making it ideal for getting that quick shot when you need to. The size makes it one of the best cameras for hiking or just taking with you in a theme park. It easily fits in my pocket and I almost forget it's there.

The flash is really powerful for it's size and I hope you take time to experiment with the Macro settings for getting real close-ups. There are a lot of modes you can play with on the camera... so it's not just a point and shoot! I use the macro mode all the time to get close-ups of people and flowers. You'd be amazed what you can do with this little guy! I'd highly recommend this Canon Powershot!! Josh

Summary: Lots of visual noise and poor indoor performance.
Comment: After reading many reviews of this camera by other users, I was convinced that this was the right choice for me. The lack of image stabilization was downplayed because the optical zoom was so low. Outside and only in bright sun, it takes good, clear photos. As the light dims, visual noise starts to creep in, and indoors at almost any light level, it wants to use the flash.

Anything larger than a shoe box will be under-illuminated by the flash leaving the photo unbearably dark. Turn off the auto-flash to get a better shutter speed, and unless you're on a tripod, this camera will produce a very high resolution blurry picture. Not a single indoor picture has turned out clear or even acceptable so far. I took this camera with me to Rome, and wish I had gotten one with image stabilization when i got home. Colors are underwhelming unless the camera is set to manual so that you can select the vivid color setting. As a matter of fact, the only way to get close to acceptable pictures in low light is with manual settings and with a tripod. If you have a choice, get an IS model. Don't waste your money on this!
