Canon EOS 750D Digital SLR Body Only Camera with EF-S 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM Lens (24.2 MP, CMOS Sensor) 3-Inch LCD Screen

Product Information

To ensure the 750D keeps apace with rival DSLRs and CSCs Canon has been forced to filter down advanced features from cameras higher up in their EOS range. For some time now we’ve got used to Canon playing it safe with a 9-point diamond formation AF system on their beginner DSLRs, so it’s good to see the EOS 750D (and the EOS 760D) encompassing a more sophisticated 19-point all cross-type autofocus system. David Hambling (11 April 2022). "Russia's Deadly Artillery Drones Have A Strange Secret". Forbes . Retrieved 11 April 2022. A light, polycarbonate body camera may become a disadvantage if you’re looking to mount giant fast lenses. But if you want to sample some of Canon’s cheaper high-quality options, such as the bargain 50mm f1.8 lens, they’ll suit the Canon EOS 750D perfectly.

Whether red-eye reduction is enabled or not, the 750D successfully avoided red-eye during our testing. The flash was also able to evenly illuminate a white surface from a distance of 1.5 meters with no vignetting at a 17mm focal length. Externally the 750D is almost identical to its predecessor, featuring a 3-inch 1040k-dot LCD display that’s both touch-sensitive and able to articulate. The camera’s physical control layout is also very similar to the 700D. However, if you like the look of the top-panel LCD display and rear control wheel on the EOS 70D, the new 760D introduced alongside the 750D includes these features, but in every other respect is identical to the 750D. Servo AF (autofocus) in live view mode, allowing for continuous autofocus during shooting bursts. (The 750D/T6i only supports Servo AF when using the optical viewfinder.) Both 750D and 760D camera uses advance Hybrid CMOS AF III sensor and a 19-point AF phase module sensor, The Hybrid Sensor AF system gets activated when a user switches to live view shooting or records a video. All of the current Canon EF Lenses are compatible with the Canon latest Hybrid AF sensor and will do AF perfectly without an issue. [6] The out-of-camera JPEGs are quite soft and at the default sharpening setting and benefit from some further sharpening in a program like Adobe Photoshop. You can also change the in-camera sharpening level to suit your tastes via the Picture Style options. The 760D was announced together with the EOS 750D (known as the Rebel T6s in the Americas and the 8000D in Japan). It is very similar to the 750D, but adds the following features: [4]

Canon is still using its trusted 24-megapixel sensor as the base for a lot of its entry and mid-range DSLRs, so you shouldn’t feel too short-changed going for an older model like the 750D. The 750D arrives two years later than the 700D, and while there’s little to separate them from the outside, there are some significant changes inside. The autofocus sensor has been upgraded, up from 9 to 19 points, all of which are cross-type for increased sensitivity. It appears to be the same autofocus sensor used in the Canon EOS 70D and the Canon 7D before that. It’s still short of the 39 points offered by the Nikon D5500, though, and its diamond-shaped array of points covers a smaller area in the centre of the frame.

Fitting in perfectly with the camera’s fairly easy style, the Canon EOS 750D screen tilts out and up/down to make seeing what you’re shooting when holding the camera above or below your head – or at any sorts of odd angles – easy. It’s a smooth, high-quality vari-angle mechanism. The 24.2-million-pixel sensor the 750D and 760D use bring both models into line with their closest rivals in the market, namely the Nikon D5500, which also features a 24.2-million-pixel chip. The move away from an 18-million-pixel sensor to a 24-million-pixel sensor sees a jump in the output image size too – up from 5184×3456 pixels on the 700D to 6000×4000 pixels on the 750D and 760D. Unlike the Nikon D5500 and some other recent high-resolution APS-C sensors however, the 750D and 760D continue to use an anti-aliasing filter and with this in place it has its work cut out to resolve the same levels of resolution. Canon has also graced the model with a very respectable 5fps burst-shooting option, as well as both Wi-Fi and NFC so that you can get your images out without the hassle of cables. One-Shot, AI Focus, AI Servo, Live View (FlexiZone - Multi, FlexiZone - Single, Face detection, Movie Servo), ManualA little basic by 2018 standards, but available at a very attractive price for first-time buyers. The Rivals By cutting down on the number of controls, Canon has been able to make the few that do feature very easy to access. This camera is easy to use and still gives you plenty of manual control if you’re after it. At the time of the 750D’s launch, Wi-Fi and NFC were pretty much the standard connectivity options for cameras like this. These days, NFC has on the whole disappeared, while always-on low-power Bluetooth connectivity is very popular. This arrangement of AF points – combined with a working range of EV-0.5-18 – is identical to Canon’s EOS 70D, however instead of employing Canon’s Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology the EOS 750D features the same Hybrid CMOS AF III system that debuted on the EOS M3. One of the camera’s headline features is the introduction of a new 24.2-million-pixel sensor that looks to improve upon the 18-million-pixel sensor that we’ve seen in all of Canon’s three-digit DSLR’s since the EOS 550D. Let’s begin by taking a closer inspection of the 750D’s features and see how it differs to the 760D.

Furthermore, although the camera comes with a built-in flash, you can use a much more powerful unit on the hot shoe for outdoor portrait or creative shoots indoors. Not only that, but the integrated microphone port also lets you use a top-quality mic for superior sound recording when shooting videos, so you can get more professional results. Canon has also implemented its DIGIC 6 image processor which supersedes the DIGIC 5 unit found in the 700D, and the new model also receives an upgraded 19-point autofocus system pulled from the EOS 70D. The 750D’s exposure metering system is new, too, as is the inclusion of Wi-Fi connectivity with NFC pairing. AF points, all cross-type at f/5.6. Center point is high precision, double cross-type at f/2.8 or fasterThe mode dial features priority modes that let you control one main element, such as aperture or shutter speed, letting the camera sort out the rest to best suit that setting. We use these easy manual modes about 90% of the time. Moving from a nine to nineteen-point autofocus system is another significant improvement over the 700D and helps make the Canon EOS 750D even more dependable, especially due to all the AF points being the more sensitive cross-type. Canon’s addition of a dedicated AF-mode button on the top panel is also a welcome new control. Even without scrutinising, images from the Canon EOS 750D are impressive. With the Picture Control colour options set to ‘Standard’, colours are vibrant without looking oversaturated or unnatural. The camera’s evaluative exposure metering is also extremely reliable, and though it shares the same 63-zone system as the 700D, there’s now a 7560-pixel RGB sensor to account for colour as well as light approaching the infra-red spectrum.

For those with a compatible NFC device, pairing it with the 750D couldn’t be easier – simply enable Wi-fi/NFC through the menu before touching the devices together to initiate a wireless connection. If like me you own a smartphone that doesn’t feature NFC the connection process takes a while longer and you’re required to select your desired Wi-fi function before connecting to the network from the smartphone’s Wi-fi settings – a process that takes around 30secs.
