Great little camera

This may come as a bit of a shock, but I've owned THREE of these cameras.  The first one was stolen out of my luggage after a business trip flight.  The second one was left in a rental car after a business trip.  The third one... well, it's been dropped a bunch of times but still works just fine.

Takes great photos, easy to use, and loaded with features that are simple enough for the casual user to figure out.

The LCD screen is big, bright and most of your functions are displayed here.  The video capability is top-notch.

Can't recommend this camera enough.

Same here! I bought a couple of these for my technologically dyslexic friend, and my parents. My friend is a realtor and takes pictures of houses, while my parents are jewelers and take pictures of jewelry, and they've been able to take fab pictures. And yes, I love their face recognition feature as well! If you're ever looking for a place to share your pictures on the web, Flickr is a great place to start. And for videos, youtube, of course :)

I know there are a lot of fun features on this camera, but I haven't really needed to use many of them. I use this camera for my business (real estate development consulting and construction management inspection) so it's taken - literally - tens of thousands of photos in its life. So, I guess the best "feature", at least to me, is its reliability. In terms of bells and whistles, I do like the "face framing". Like I mentioned previously, I also love the video capability. Maybe I'll try uploading a video to my Lunch profile! All photos on my profile were taken using this camera!

Haha, everyone just wants the SD750, don't they? I own one of these babies and I love mine as well! You can check out my review here. Any cool features on it that you like? I love discovering new functions on it!

I have a Canon (not sure what model) that I've been using for about 6 years now and it just finally decided to stop working. I was told that Canon will send you a new camera if yours breaks if they can't fix it. I think I might do that myself one of these days!

The functions of the Canon SD750 seem to be endless.  Just when I think that I know everything that there is to know about this camera, I discover something new.  The jist of it is that the SD750 has three easy-to-set shooting modes: video, manual still, and automatic still, and within each of those three modes comes their own set of settings and modes as well.  For instance, when set to shoot videos, one can choose the size of the video as well as the frame rate.  When shooting …

I bought this camera as a gift for someone else, but I use it a lot and I love it! The pictures always come out great - clear even though I have shaky hands - and it has a lot of features that I actually use.  My favorite is the one that allows me to take 5 quick pictures at once -- it's made for a lot of hilarious picture sets.

About this product

Wiki

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; now offered in a choice of silver or black and silver. 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.
