Reviewer Consensus
Good
The Canon PowerShot SD750 is a stylish, ultra-compact camera featuring a large 3-inch LCD and responsive performance. Though it offers quick operation and good color, the image quality is often hindered by noise, purple fringing, and a lack of detail in certain conditions.

The Canon Powershot SD750 captures reasonably sharp images overall, though some details, most often in the lower quadrants are a hint soft.
-
The IXUS 75 scores well on all accounts. It is stylishly designed, well-built, and performed well in all of the ePHOTOzine tests.
-
[N]ot best in class, but if you want a stylish ultra-compact camera, the IXUS 75 is still well worth considering.
-
The Canon IXUS 75 had the potential to be the best pocket compact on the market, with ultra-quick performance, attractive styling and excellent optical quality, but image quality problems including lack of detail, compression artefacts and image noise are big handicaps [...]
-
The PowerShot SD750 is an excellent compact cam with a large 3-inch display that's second only to its sibling the SD1000.
-
Canon’s IXUS 75 falls down in a couple of areas but nevertheless pulls off an impressive performance.
- CNET 7.5/10
Excellent picture quality; large screen; smart styling; good video.
- CNET 7.8/10
It lacks the image stabilization of the SD800 IS and the tiny appeal of the SD1000, but the Canon PowerShot SD750 has a more elegant, cutting-edge design, large LCD and–to my eyes, at least–better photo quality.
- Photo Review 8/10
A smart-looking ultra-slim digicam with a large LCD for framing and reviewing shots.
