Taking Another Shot at The Canon SD750 Digital Wonder

Canon resumes its position at the top of all camera manufacturers. The design, performance, and quality is hard to match. 

Here’s my overall review of the Canon SD750 or sometimes spelled, Cannon SD750. 

When it comes to the top brands, Canon is right there in the top 2. The performance of these cameras is outstanding. I personally own a Canon SLR and my husband and I use it all the time. But, this is the review of the Canon SD750 so let’s get back to it. 

In addition to great performance the Canon outshines most of its competitors in quality as well. You may have noticed the SD700 and wonder what the difference between the SD750 and SD700 are. Actually, it’s all about the mega pixels. There is not a lot of difference anywhere else. 

If I’m going to point out any shortcomings, sadly, it is the lack of the image stabilizer. I have no idea why they didn’t add this feature in as my husband and I use it all the time in our SLR camera. This in my opinion was a mistake, but Canon won me over in all the other outstanding features and performance so I had to agree with the main reviews that I’ve seen. Actually, it’s truly a digital wonder. 

The Canon SD750 includes a 3” LCD screen. This is quite large for an LCD camera screen. There is a trade off due to the size in that there is no optical viewfinder. This may not bother most people, but if you are used to using a viewfinder it may take a while to get used to the loss of it. 

The feature where this camera seems to glow is the movie feature. I have a Sony digital camera and I have to say the Canon SD750’s movie feature is better. There are a nice variety of special effects you can play with including the fad-in fad-out and other effects. The VGA frame rate is 30 frames per second. The time lapse feature is something to drool over as you can record up to 2 full hours of movies then take and condense them into a shorter more enjoyable movie. 

The time lapse feature will turn any novice movie producer into a pro just by clipping out all the junkie boring shots as well as mistakes. It’s fun and it’s the feature that I found rather hard to resist. 

There are plenty of other great features to swoon over. It has 17 shooting modes for the novice who is not interested in playing around with the ISO, shutter speeds or aperture setting. Just select your scene, be it day or night, sporting or close up portraits, it’s a click and go fully automatic wonder. 

Yet, it is great for a more advanced user who would like to set up the shots using the non-automatic features. In conclusion I’d give this camera a thumbs up, 5 star review.
