None better including all of the hyped machines. Buy it, then do this:
put on the small coil,
enhanced mode,
accept iron,
max volume,
sensitivity 6.5 (small coil),
learn it's lanquage.
Find more rings and nickles than any machine.

I've had both side by side. Have you? The F75 has too many limitations on where it will work. Some places it just won't work.My F75 would miss targets the 3D will lock on time and time again. F75: Depth reading is way off, never gets a good good solid tone, Numbers jump, Not fun to use.

I have the CZ 3d,CZ 5 & CZ 70 and love them.
Had a F-75, don't have it anymore, the CZ is built like a tank.
And if you hunt a salt water beach, you have one of the best for that.
A CZ with the 8" & 5" coil are all you need. I use my 5" coil most of the time.
One of my friends uses a CZ 6a and has for years, I would like to see a F-75
that has been used this long and hard...
Saw a Video where a F-75 and a CZ 3d will small coil where hunting together
in the video and I thought the 3d found more good stuff..
Do like Bigolhorns suggested, run in zero disc, you need to hear the iron, some times
when the coil comes off of iron, it will go to high tone, if you have iron out, all you hear is the high tone
and you will think its a coin, But with zero disc, you will hear the low tone first.
Go to the Fisher site and read Tom Dankowski's Fisher Intelligence... also read the 4th & 5th Editions.

It may not be a secret, but I think a lot of people don't know this. You should hunt with discrim at 0 so you can hear the iron tone. As long as the site is not too riddled with iron and you have to run it a 1, running it a 0 cuts down the number of false high tones you dig.
Like BJ said, lots of times iron gives the low/high tone and if you have the discrim at 1, you will not hear the low tone, only the high and you end up digging iron when you thought it would be a coin.
With the 5 inch coil, sens turned up to just barely stable so the machine does not false on the swings, discrim at 0, I have pulled lots of deep silver coins, gold rings and silver rings, in between nails, just listening for the repeatable, 2 way signal of med or high tone.
The small coil separates targets extremely well, and I am glad I found out about it. It's the coil I use the most on land.

We have hunted this site so many times, its hard to keep track of how many times that 1,2,3 or all 4 of us have, plus people that we don't know that have hunted it...
There is a lot of iron. rusty nails, alum, sq. tabs, tabs with and with out tails, you name it, there is a good chance its out there some where. We are pulling a lot of trash out of this site, but some good finds are being found. There has been a lot of marbles found here, several old Bennington. a couple of big one also. Silver,Buffs,IHs.
3 of us hunted it Sunday, Craig with a CZ 6a w/5" coil, me with a CZ 3d and 5" coil, and JD with a old A.H. Pro Back Packer with 6" coil.
Craig runs his 6a at 1. I ran at Zero disc. I here all the tones (4), I got a low tone with a high tone, I checked it from different ways, I hit pin point and there is so much iron all around, PP is no good, so I forget PP and go back to searching in zero disc. and find the high tone again, I start digging with my pick, then I see a a coin, I could not tell if it was a copper penny or a wheatie. I carry a small bottle, ( that pills came in ) let it soak for a while in water, it was a 1912 d wheatie, to bad the it was not a "S"...
I was running the 3d in Enhanced mode, Sens at 3. Vol at 5,GB at 5, Disc at zero. and dig anything above iron,, This high tone just sounded different and I have heard this high tone sound before, so I had to dig it.I was going slow, just taking time to check it out good. About 5 feet away from where I found the 1912 d wheatie, just ahead of me, JD found a quarter sized coin, kinda of a brown & green color, we soaked it in one of those little bottles with water, it was old and thin, we are not sure of what it is, but the date side, 1889 with a lady in a wheel chair, her right hand on the wheel, her left arm is reaching out in front of her, her hair pulled back,
The other side is, I am guessing a Queen, up at the top, I could make out Britt_ _. Anyone know what this might be ?? Sorry no picture of the coin, and I don't think a picture would help...It would just look like a round and brown coin.
We use picks and cover our holes, only on lots like this one, later they will come back and build something and put down sod grass and then there will be no more hunting
I love the CZ tones and it may drive some crazy with all the noise, but with me, I just got use to it, I came from using a Sovereign and I listened to all those tones, so I guess there is no where for the pain to go,lol.
The picture was not taken last Sunday, it was from a couple of weeks back, since the picture, there has been rain, and that helpped a lot..
We had fun.
