Product Information

The selected autofocus point can be moved using the touchscreen while looking through the viewfinder.

Differences between the EOS 750D and 760D are subtle, but one of the most noticeable is the 750D’s lack of a secondary top-panel settings display. There’s no creaking or warping of the parts that make up the Canon EOS 750D’s shell, and it has an aluminium skeleton underneath the plastic to help keep everything rigid. It gives the 750D the ability to generate incredibly clean images with low enough noise levels to make even ISO 12800 shots stand up to close scrutiny.Whether red-eye reduction is enabled or not, the 750D successfully avoided red-eye during our testing. As Features Editor, she is responsible for commissioning an eclectic mix of features connected to general photography, along with interviews. Red-eye reduction is enabled or disabled from the first page of the main menu, as are more advanced options such as TTL metering modes, flash sync speeds and flash exposure compensation.

In fact, the Canon EOS 750D is very much in the mould of its predecessor, the Canon 700D, in that it doesn’t have anything that blows the competition away; rather it’s the consistent, all-round high quality that makes this our top choice for budding enthusiasts. The choice of AF point can be left to the camera to decide in 19-point AF mode, or it can be set manually in Single point AF or Zone AF mode. 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.Between the sizable and ergonomic rear thumb grip and the viewfinder is the live view button, and on the other side of the thumb grip are the zoom controls for image playback.

It inherits many of the core features you’ll find on the 760D and on paper looks like an extremely capable DSLR for its proposed audience. At ISO 12800 there’s also some blotchiness in areas of solid tones, but only to a degree you’d normally expect from an ISO 3200 shot. The announcement of EOS Rebel T7i / EOS 800D means that the EOS Rebel T6i / EOS 750D moves down the Canon line-up, but despite this the T6i / 750D is still a great camera that's capable of delivering superb image quality. The control layout is also almost identical to the previous camera's, making the upgrade very smooth.

With the Picture Control colour options set to ‘Standard’, colours are vibrant without looking oversaturated or unnatural. Granted, on the outside it’s almost identical to its predecessor, but given the 700D’s ergonomics, control layout and touch interface are already excellent, that’s no bad thing.

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. 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. There’s no option to double tap an image during playback to review it at 100% however, and I found there to be a fraction of a second delay before an image is rendered at full quality when zooming in and flicking through to the next image.This displays a menu screen containing key shooting settings available for adjustment in the current shooting mode. With the system turned off, noise does become more apparent from ISO3200 upwards, though fine detail is slightly clearer.
