Can anyone tell me the difference between the canon powershot sd750 and the canon ixus 75?

I've seen 2 different cameras one with the words " Canon powershot sd 750 digital elph" written on front side of it and another with "canon digital ixus 75" written on it. Surely this is 2 different cameras? Its the ixus 75 i'm after as thats the one i read rated reviews on and dont want to get the wrong one.

BIG Difference:

Two different countries of origin = two different warranties. The SD750 is a Canon USA product, and will only be accepted for repair if purchased and used in the USA or Cananda. If you live anywhere else and buy this camera and something breaks...Canon won't touch it.

The Ixus 75 is the European model - if you live in Europe, buy that one. If you live in America, stay away, as Canon USA won't repair it.

Either way, it's a great camera - just purchase the one appropriate to where you live, and enjoy!

They're one and the same, it's just that Canon has the bad habit of giving some of their cameras a different model name/number depending on the market: it's “SD750” in America, “IXUS 75” in Europe... and, for that matter, “IXY 90” in Japan.
