- This is a long one, but a comprehensive look at the new F75 with the new Digital Shield Technology! I put a lot of time in this one, and I hope you enjoy.In ground depth test, and I have a few finds from the field at the end.
This is the best review of the F75, that I've viewed on the TUBE. Great work, thank you so very much.
Best instruction video on the F75 on UA-cam
MrTruth1253 he does a good job.
Real fine video, going through the settings and processes over your test bed. YOU REALLY made it worthwhile to watch the whole thing. Been eyeing this detector for a while. My F75 Ltd se2 will arrive in a few days. 30 years detecting and I had to add this one to my arsenal. I always go over productive sites with 2 or 3 land units, V3i, ATP, Sov GT and now this F75 beast will replace my Racer that didn't have punch in MY soil.
Thanks, I enjoy you vids.
CCH this is by FAR the best video on the F75. Many Thanks.
Well done review. Very helpful to anyone thinking of buying or just getting use to the machine. Thanks!
Awesome video! I just found a great deal on a F75 LTD Camo edition. Only difference is that the newer LTD's are DST and Fe upgraded. I dont hunt in places with heavy EMI's since I mostly go in the woods. So thanks for sharing this video. Very informative.
Thanks for the video. My house is 1895 but the yard is absolutely filthy with nails from the 3 add-ons. Also been landscaped so most good stuff is going to be awfully deep. Newbie detectorist last year and my first detector was a Tejon. Maybe good in it's element but just too filthy to get that thing to work right here. Yard looked like a war zone and nothing but a couple clads and a pickle jar half full of nails to show for it. Got an F-2 and picked up a couple more clads but at least it eliminated many of the nails. Now got the F-75 with the upgrades and trying to learn it. Watched your video and just ran outside in the dark to try those iron settings you discussed. Had to turn the sensitivity down to 50 because of heat pump so used BP like you mentioned, 1n tone and no disc. About a minute of hunting and first good signal was a 1945 wheatie at 7". THANKS GUY!
Just picked one up, great video review, very helpful.
Great Video..watched the whole thing and was surprised it was over 50 mins long...seemed like 10 mins.
I just got my F75 delivered last night and watching your video was much better than re-reading the manual.. Thanks!

drjoeprime Thank you. Glad you liked it. I've been having some good luck with mine. Happy Hunting :)

Wow, What a video, and test.I have never used Fisher machines, but your test sure made me a believer. Thank you for such an honest and informative video. Looks like Fisher has move into a select few category of premium machines. look out Garett, Whites, and Minelab, there's a new dog in town!
I’ve got the F75 SE LTD also... If you didn’t know the boost mode and cache mode transfers over to all metal mode and enhances its performance. It’s says so in the users manual and I asked Kelly Co. You don’t need to swing slow in boost mode using all metal mode but you do need to sweep slow using cache mode and when you’re using that setting while in all metal mode. Just set discrimination mode side first then switch over to all metal mode and it almost doubles all metal mode performance. Other settings like default or fast mode or jewelry doesn’t transfer over to enhance all metal mode. This information is on page 22 and 23 of the users manual. As you start to read each discrimination mode. You’ll noticed boost process cache locating process at the bottom of the paragraph says... when the boost mode is selected the response characteristics of the all metal mode are also modified (meaning boosted or enhanced) these characters include less noise and slow response speed. Because now its searching ultra deep and so it responds a little slow. You don’t need to sweep slow in boost mode but you do when you use cache mode. Regardless if you are using them on discrimination side and/or on all metal mode. If you select one of these options and go back to all metal mode they are enhanced if you use any other setting like default or bottlecap or jewelry then it goes back to lower performance or default.
Also if you haven’t upgraded to larger 15” inch fisher coil you should. I purchased the larger 15” inch fisher coil for my F75 LTD SE and I can hit quarters over 20” inches deep! Man hole cover or 55 gallon drum jumps from 2 meters on or 6 feet on stock 11” inch coil... However the larger 15” inch fisher coil will hit same amount of metal over three meters or 10 feet deep! So if you haven’t then you should upgrade the coil.
Awesome video. I just bought an F75. Although I have metal detected for years with various machines, this one has a learning curve and your video was helpful.
I'm one of those 30year guys and must say I have migrated from Garrett's from way back to Fisher ever since I got a impulse for the water many years ago, got a 3D and it did wonders on the bronze coins over here in Japan. Just got a 75 LTD and was able to hit a couple of sites before it turned too hot over here. I hunt the winter here because of the hot humid summer weather and being in the jungle area most of the time to hunt. Hit a couple of my old sites that I had pounded before with the Garrett's and 3D and was able to come up with some more finds. The best is a real small flake bronze coin that I like to find that are super small and hard to find. The 75 Pulled them right out of my old areas. It was great" Look forward to hitting some other old sites this winter.
Thanks for the video and look forward to more. and thank for using the nickel in your test, a lot of bronze fall in that area of the scale.
Dave N Japan did you get the 15” coil? It detects quarters down to 20” deep!!
Good review. Thanks! I am considering getting the F75.
Excellent video. I enjoy watching all of your reviews. I just got one of these, and have found it to be super deep. I won't be looking for a deeper machine anymore. I believe the F75 LTD-DST will find anything just as deep as I care to dig, and even deeper. I've only done testing in my test bed so far. The weather here won't cooperate for any hunt time. Can't wait till spring gets here now. The deepest coin in my bed is a Clad Quarter at 11 inches. The F75LTD-DST will hit it reliably in default mode with sensitivity at 75, and begins to hit it at 67. I'm also finding that it IDs the 11 inch quarter right in the quarter area, only occasionally jumping over to dime. And it's light weight and balance make it easy on my old worn out shoulders. Obviously I'm super satisfied with that. Thanks for the honest review, leading me to this super machine.
+David Gillaspie Sr Thank you, and good luck with your new machine :)
Great review, thank you!
I have it since a few days, but i am insecure if my minelab Explorer ii wasn't better in depth and separating. Seems like i have to develope the right feeling first. But the silence is really spectacular!
Great video really enjoyed it, I've recently brought a f75 standard and loving it.
The standarg F75 is awesome. I had one and noticed on the older ones, if you turned the disc down below 5, the machine would get way deeper. Im not sure if that's still the case, but it's worth a look. You just can't be around alot of EMI to use it this way. Also wanted to let you know all metals mode is a beast. I started using it in parks, and found all kinds od deep coins and rings I'd walked over with other machines. If the trash density isn't to high, this is the ticket! Good luck with your detecting.
This is an excellent instructional video. Thank you.
Best video to watch very informative and explained every detail.
Thank you
I've had my F75 LTD for years now...been detecting on and off. For the first time (yes I read the manual :) I understand what everything does and where one might want to use it, thank you for taking the time out to do this. I must just find what works for me and our heavy mineralized soil here in South-Africa... which by the way the F75 also kinda laughs at. My first one was Ace250 I still own... then wanted to buy a "better machine" money wise I opted for the fordable F75 LE... so glad I did. I havent used any others machines to compare but I love these two.
I have the Ace 250 and right now looking to get either the Fisher F75. XP Deus or Equinox 800. I don't know which one i want exactly. But the XP Deus and Minelab Equinox 800 both have high frequencies where you can find small gold nuggets/flakes or stay around 20khz for bigger nuggets. Can change the frequency on these 2. The Whites F75 is at 13khz only. But its a bit cheaper and goes very deep.

Great review. Congrats on silver and wheats!
Gene thank you for this playlist.... it is really helping me!! I am hoping to pick up my F75 SE LTD Monday.... I think it looks great from your videos!!
+Pull tab Patriot Awesome, I'm glad you liked it! Good luck with your new machine :)
I ended up getting this over the Treasure Pro, hope to be happy, your reviews really helped!
Thanx for your explanations! Lots of help😉
Fantastic review thank you, I've just bought my first fisher the gold ltd edition, can I ask a Silly question, in all metal can you still mask out the iron tones or not, thanks again for this video
Nice review thanks
I know this is a older video but it’s very very helpful. I just changed from a ace 350 to a F75 and I’m trying to learn how to use it. 🙏 btw I’m a tar heel also 👍
Thank you, and good luck!
The f75+ is going to be the next unit i get.Can't wait to get one this spring.
Robert Manore you will love it, I got T2+ and it runs circles around my old Garrett at gold.
I love mine. got it in mid February and have already dug over 50 silver coins. a few flat buttons, tons of wheaties, bunch of indians, and buckles + suspender clips! found a barber quarter at 11" at least.....and a 1700's button at 12". almost gave up on both targets....glad I didnt.
great info !!! i love my fisher
Thrills In The Dig - North Carolina i have one too,Men i am soo happy with mine fisher f 75
You seem to have some REALLY mild dirt there?? I'll trade you that for my iron rich, Ga. red clay! Great machine (prolly my next machine!) & VERY informative vid!!!
Great video
Great vid
That's a fabulous video. Thank you so much for making it. Is there any chance you could show me how to use it on a beach? I don't get to one very often and when I do, I don't know how to set up the machine!
ours is arriving in the morning... hope it works
I would like to see a comparison of the different # of Tones settings on different targets. Same thing with Process #. I can read what the settings are but how do they behave?
Great tuitional on the F75 . I have just bought a anniversary model . Do you know if a 13 inch G2 coil will work on the f75 ???? I bought this as a spare machine for use . I indent to use it as always fancied a f75 but bought some thing else . Looking forward to trying it out .
VERY GOOD, INFORMATIVE VIDEO - ESPECIALLY THE PART WHERE YOU LOCATED THE TARGETS YOU BURIED - THANKS FOR A *GREAT* VIDEO - BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What's the DST mode used for? I have a old abandoned school on the levee in New Orleans and there's about 6 inches of sand fill. Using a DeTech 13" Ultimate DD Search Coil what Setting would you use to fine men's high school rings in your opinion?
How accurate do you think the confidence indicator is?
Very nice video thx a lot !
just bought a Fisher F 75 SE, I'm a beginner to detecting. Can you tell me the best settings to set it on? I'M hunting fields and old home places. Thanks for any help
good video, thanks
Do you loose any depth when you negative threshold?
Great F75 video. Thanks for taking the time to do this...don't have mine yet and I already know a ton about it!! If I send you a whole bunch of newer Canadian coins, would you like to take a shot at detecting them and providing some insight? Apparently hard to detect as they are clad and can be confusing. I have a new F75+ in transit.
Some of our canadian coins are made out of iron. Another canadian guy told me that there is a way to tell the good iron from the junk iron. I always use the all metal setting, this guy told me if you get a low iron tone on the f75 all you have to do is raise the search coil off the ground a little,, & if you get a bit of a higher tone then it might be a iron coin. If you hear a high tone in the ground it might be a iron coin that is deep but as you get closer to it with your coil as you dig,, the tone will sound off like a low iron tone. I don t know if this will work on the newer f75 detector but you can check it out on your machine. I am going to buy one of theses f75 newer detector as soon as i save up the money that i have found in the ground with my older minelab machine. That is just a tip that i thought you might want to know good luck on your hunting.
I still want one now, my lastest greatest is a simplex plus, but it burns my arm out quickly unlike my vaquero. If this swings like my vaquero I may still go for it or the t2 equivalent.
Been comparing the F75 to the Notka Impact for my next detector. The Impact looks AMAZING in features etc... But that F75 has YEARS of experience behind it. ANY suggestions?????? ( I hunt Ga. High mineralized dirt)
great video I am hunting in NC also best of luck and happy hunting
It s a amazing machine, isn t it? ;)
i fell in love with the new F75 LTD. ;D
Thanks for sharing.

SondeldieWaldfee Thank you for checking out my review, and good luck with your detecting!
SondeldieWaldfee I love mine... I upgraded to 15” fisher coil specially designed for the F75 SE.
I wish I could see what buttons your fiddeling with off camers
Is this good for buried treasure?
Also how deep this can detect?
picked up a f-75 75 anniversary thats in near new condition any suggestions on videos or other help
My best suggestion is to run it with the sensitivity lower at first so it's really running stable. These machines are deep, even at low settings. Dig lots of targets at first to get an idea of the responses you get between trash and good stuff. Once you start getting some confidence with your machine you can crank it up. If you get frustrated with trash turn the disc up or notch out some stuff, so you can have some fun with it. You can go back later an investigate targets you passed up as you gain experience with the machine. Happy Hunting:)
So what happened? Did you test??
Фишер просто чудо!
I just got the T2, similar to the 75
Start with defalt setting and work out from there,,
Nice
Looking at the F75, but what's the hype with the F75 LTD?
Is it worth the $$ upgrade??
Edited: Just bought one new on eBay for an awesome deal. Can’t wait to get it and now enjoying watching your tutorial in full! Thank you.
Just leaned the Boost mode and cache mode transfers over to motion all metal mode settings. Those are the only two settings that enhance motion all metal modes from discrimination side. I thought each side was independent and didn’t interact with each other but the last two modes do effect motion all metal mode. It boosts the all metal search but you must slow down sweep speed just as using cache mode in discrimination.. So leave it in Boost mode in discrimination mode settings when using all metal mode to get best performance.
Very interesting! Been hunting with the F75 Ltd for 6 yrs now, and I'm still learning new tweeks that push the f75 to new levels! Its a beast on CW Relics here in the South. My 14yr old Son and I Hunted a well pounded confederate camp today. The old timers had cherry picked this camp years before I ever hit it. When you hear Relic hunters say, a place is never hunted out. Its true, I have pulled several Large Cents, 1812 Riflemans Button, Hundreds of Enfield and Gardner Bullets, And one of the Finest South Carolina Local Button, with a Rare Charleston Backmark. 80% gold gilt remaining. Hunted that site with Tejon, several different Minelabs, The F75 just smoked everything I've evet tried! If you can Learn her language, and believe what she is telling you, You will find so much more. I still question her sometimes.
And Usaully end up digging junk.
BigD did yea she’s a beast for sure. Did you upgrade to the big 15” coil yet? I just seen off brand makes a 17” coil for the F75. If you think you getting it all wait till you upgrade the coil. Plus I’ve been looking at getting a PI detector. So the boost mode and cache mode transfers over to all metal mode and enhances its performance. It’s says so in the users manual and I asked Kelly Co. You don’t need to swing slow in boost mode using all metal mode but you do need to sweep slow using cache mode when you’re in all metal mode. Just set discrimination mode side first then switch over to all metal mode and it almost doubles all metal mode performance. Air test and verify for yourself. Other settings like default or fast mode or jewelry doesn’t transfer over to enhance all metal mode. This information is on page 22 and 23 of the users manual. As you start to read each discrimination mode. You’ll noticed boost process cache locating process at the bottom of the paragraph says... when the boost mode is selected the response characteristics of the all metal mode are also modified (meaning boosted or enhanced) these characters include less noise and slow response speed. Because now its searching ultra deep and so it responds a little slow. You don’t need to sweep slow in boost mode but you do when you use cache mode. Regardless if you are using them on discrimination side and/or on all metal mode. If you select one of these options and go back to all metal mode they are enhanced if you use any other setting like default or bottlecap or jewelry then it goes back to lower performance or default.
Also if you haven’t upgraded to larger 15” inch fisher coil you should. I purchased the larger 15” inch fisher coil for my F75 LTD SE and I can hit quarters over 20” inches deep! Man hole cover or 55 gallon drum amount of metal is 2 meters or 6 feet on stock 11” inch coil... However the larger 15” inch fisher coil will hit same amount of metal over three meters or 10 feet deep! So if you haven’t then you should upgrade the coil. Always run max sensitivity because you loose depth. Verify by lowering it to zero as you scan and it almost needs to touch the coil to make noise.
@@88997799 thanks for that info. I actually do have the big 15" fisher coil. I've really never used in the field, I've played with it in my test garden a couple times, to see if there's improvement in depth compared to the 11" stock coil. I can hit a silver half dollar at 15" with stock coil in most settings, the f75 still impresses me every time I use it, I've learned in my test garden, that you don't have to crank sensitivity all the way up to hit targets in boost, I can get a good signal in the teens, on silver at 8"-10"+ depending on target size.
But you got my curiosity up on the 15" coil and all metal/boost! Ill be hitting the test garden as soon as I can to try out the 15" coil.
This is great! I have some beat up sites that I want to run the new set up over, to see what got left behind from years of me and other detectorist pounding the sites!
Thanks again for the info!
I've seriously been thinking about giving the Deaus a try, but I'm still impressed by the f75, and find it hard to believe there's anything out there than is as good or better than this machine, especially with someone that has experience using this machine. I've been using the F75 Ltd Se going on 6-7 yrs now. And I'm still learning!
BigD I love my F75 LTD SE! I didn’t know until I read the manual. I’ve had a few good days recently with gold and silver rings and over $25 in quarters. In my last 4-5 days of uploads. So check them out. Here is large target sensitivity test on 15” coil... ua-cam.com/video/nw_8FtpcgVA/v-deo.html
BigD so what happened??? 🤔🤔🤔
Regards, can you help me how to set the fisher f75 to work at the greatest possible depth? thank you in advance.
The deepest mode is going to be all metals mode, ground balanced and the sensitivity as high as you can get it to run stable
This ltd looks like the same detector as the f75 plus, i am thinking if both detectors get the same adjustments & same depth its cheaper to buy the f75 plus,, & i would forget about getting the package deal on the ltd which cost more money,, & i got all that extra stuff a long time ago.
Do you think it's a good piece for someone new to detecting?
It's really not an extremely complicated machine, but at the same time it is a high end machine price wise.
I came across a person selling a used at 75 and he is not sure if it has the digital shield technology. Do you know how I can tell the difference between a newer version and the older version?
The newer version has FA mode. The older one without DST does not
+Carolina Coin Hunter Great! Thanks for that info.👍
if I have an f2, and I buy this machine......would it be smart to go back over old hunting spots with it? seems deep from the reviews
Jerry Scary Yes, I would do that for sure. The F75 is deeper, and being a higher frequency than the. F2 could also make a difference in your finds. Good luck with your detecting!
Awesome. Thank you!
Hey Gene….IM struggling to figure out good settings on f75 for the beach……it seems so noisy and difficult to GB😳…..I’m used to my Minelab Xterra and feel like iM STARTING OVER……please give me some guidance…thanks! Jeanne from EI
I never did much with it on the wet sand. Dry , It did well. If I recall , I was told manually GB at 15 or so. This is supposed to help cancel out the salt signal, and disc up to foil. You'll have to play around with that and see.
@@CarolinaCoinHunter Thankyou☺️
Do you think you loose a slight depth in DST mode please?
I think that in an urban environment you gain more in usability than you would ever lose in depth. In the middle of nowhere you might gain a negligible amount
Thank you
How would you rate the Target ID compared to the and Etrac? I am very spoiled with those machines. Was super disappointed with the deus for the horrible target ID past 4 or 5 inches.. At pro was better than the Deus but still not great compared to the etrac. thanks for the Videos
+Metal Jackalope The F75's Target ID is pretty bouncy as well, no where near as reliable as the e-trac, but the recovery speed and depth are very good. It's a good machine, great for trashy spots. I mostly go by the tones, as it seems they are a bit more stable than the TID. The ID isn't terrible, but it will jump around a bit. GL & HH!
+Carolina Coin Hunter
I know I am spoiled after running the Minelabs. So many folks talk about how they dig everything that comes up not iron but being able to accurately id Twist caps from bear bottle make the ETRAC so valuable to me park hunting. That being said I think I might get a f75.. My biggest problem with the Dues was that after 4 or 5 inches it read high on mostly everything. Wasn't even that bouncy. I was digging pulltabs ringing in solid as a quarter.. Oh well thanks for the review.. :)
You forgot delta pitch on the number of tones
Фишер это супер, фишер это класс.🤑
Can you do a test with more gold, silver and other high value relics, the numbers seemed low. I am new and need help.
+VulcanBikeWizard Gold numbers are going to be all over the place on the lower end of the ID scale. It varies with the size and composition. There is really no easy way to find gold, you really have to dig almost everything.If you get the same trash over and over at a certain ID number, like a pull tab,you may be able to start skipping over that particular ID. Silver is much easier, as it come in near the top of the scale mostly in the dime- quarter region for decent sized rings and coins.
+Carolina Coin Hunter My Fisher Gold Bug arrives tomorrow. I plan to get a Gold Bug 2 because it operates at 71khz and a F75 LTD because it has several frequencies in the 13khz range. I am new to this and want to cover all my bases.
VulcanBikeWizard You should be in good shape. Good luck with your detecting!

Funny how the "other flag ships" are so praised and the F75 is so scarce on the fields.
having the cable loose like you have so close to coil will result in false signals
In haven't had any problems with that, but I have seen many cable's fail from being wrapped snug. The coil folding up without any slack can be problematic.
Agreed CCH. Have lost coils with a tight cable.

So high tones - good. Low tones - bad .
Most of the time. Silver should ring up high. Gold can ring up anywhere depending on size but usually a middle tone for rings. Best way to figure it out is to test some items you already have around, and you should get a pretty good idea.
@@CarolinaCoinHunter Thanks . I will do that .
