Pros
Pro Flicker detection
The camera can detect flickering light sources and sync up with them to shoot at peak brightness in order to avoid underexposing the image by accident.
Pro Can record HDR video in real time
At the expense of giving up 1080p and switching to 720p as well as giving up manual control, you can increase the dynamic range of video.
Pro Has a good flip out swivel-and-tilt touchscreen
760D has a 3:2, 1.04M-dot swivel-and-tilt touchscreen with support for multitouch and gestures.
Pro Touchscreen allows quickly setting the AF point
You simply tap the screen to manually set the AF point.
Pro Reasonable continuous AF for video
760D uses 19-point cross-type autofocus and has a hybrid sensor that combines contrast detection autofocus and phase detection autofocus. For continuous AF tracking while filming the camera first approximates the focus using phase detection, then uses contrast detection to more accurately adjust the focus. It performs well with set AF points for tracking, less so using subject tracking.
Pro Built-in Wi-Fi with NFC
NFC enables simple pairing with a smartphone while the built-in Wi-Fi allows transferring files between the camera and a smartphone as well as enables you to use your smartphone to control the camera.
Pro Includes a top LCD screen
760D is one of the only DSLR cameras in this price range with an extra LCD screen on top of the cameras body that allows you take quickly find out shooting preferences, battery level and SD card storage capacity.
Cons
Con Dynamic range could be better
According to tests performed by DxOmark 760D has 11.96 stops of dynamic range in print and 11.16 stops on screen for images taken at 100 ISO while cameras in this price range commonly push 14 in print and 13 on screen.
Dynamic range is the range of brightness that a camera can capture. Detail in parts of the scene that are outside of the camera's dynamic range will be lost.
Con Lacks AF microadjustment option
Autofocus microadjustment is intended to fine tune the point where the camera focuses. If the camera consistently focuses slightly in front or behind the intended point, microadjustments allow you to fix that. 760D lacks this ability.
Con No Auto-ISO system
Auto ISO automatically changes ISO within a user defined range based on lighting conditions. 760D lacks this feature.
Con Poor subject tracking in live mode
Subject tracking for the camera is somewhat unreliable. It works well if the subject is well isolated from the scene, but quickly becomes unreliable in crowded scenes.
Con Touchscreen can't be used with regular gloves
Because the touchscreen is capacitive instead of pressure-sensitive you either have to use your fingers or special touchscreen gloves to interact with the touchscreen.
