Manufacturers Description

Customer Reviews

Ixus 75 is amazing
I got my Ixus back in 2007 and I can honesly say I cannot fault it. Its small, its light, it has great image quality. the battery lasts for ever and I love the big screen on the back. The shutter lag is also non-existent (Canon probably say 1/250 of a second or something). If you're looking for a good, small, fun digital, go for it!

Do not buy this camera !!
I bought the Ixus 75 13 months ago and it's performance was outstanding however....

2 weeks ago when I switch it on the screen was black when I tried to take photos although I was able to view photos taken previously.

I have search on the internet and it seems that this is a common problem that tends to occur 12 - 14 months after purchase. Look for anther model !!!!

Oh dear - a great camera for 13 mths, then it goes horribly wrong!
I felt compelled to write this review as my Ixus 75 has now broken after 13 mths. The flash doesn't synch with pics so all images not really close up are totally pitch black. I have been told to send it in for repair, but this is the SECOND Canon product that has broken on me in recent mths, both which had JUST passed their 12 mth warranty! So my conclusion is that whilst it has great features, should it really only be reliable for 13 mths? My Canon Pixma did the same, so perhaps best avoiding Canon for now?
