what difference between the standard and the sport cam ?? Thank you

It's the same camera. Typically, when it's called a, "Sports Cam," or, "Mini Sports Cam," it comes packaged with a mounting sleeve and velcro mount. For the most part, there are only two choices for the camera itself: Wide Angle, or, Standard, lens. Most of the variations you see on Amazon are just different sets of accessories the camera comes packaged with.

I would think the sport cam would be water tight. This little cam is awesome tho. I have 2 , one on the dash and one in the back window. Color is great and nite time is pretty good just with the head lights. I plan on getting at least one more for my wife's van. Hope this helped some.

That's just marketing. There's 2 versions of the camera, the standard and the (rare) wide angle. There's a number of outfits selling the same camera so you'll see slightly different word choices. I would assume that the standard and sport camera are the same unit unless there was some obvious difference highlighted in the description.

There is no difference. I used this on my 2008 Fit Base. I'm sure it would work on the Sport.

So glad I found this post as I'm in the same boat and just printed out the specs on both cameras. I'm curious as to which camera you ended up getting and how you like it? My original intent was to upgrade from my Canon Powershot due to a long lag time in between being able to shoot the next picture now that my kids are in sports, but I would still like clear nice pictures. What did you get and how do you like it?

I don't know what you mean by the difference, other than its what is made for the camera and it fits and works. It is a hard one to find. I bought mine from here and it works wonderfully. Its almost impossible to find in the stores.

It is more of a professionals camera. A sport scene would be a fast shutter speed a kids scene might be a high aperture setting

One remark to my camera though. I bought my cam mid 2013 and it is branded VeevoCam. They may have improved the camera and/or firmware during that timeframe.

Is the EVF viewer large enough to view comfortably? I was comparing the S3 to the Sony H2 and the EVF on the Sony seems smaller compared to the S3. Can't find a FZ7 in town to physically look at, but it sounds like a great camera for the price. Any info you can give would be greatly appreciated.

The only real difference is low light ability. I noticed the audio sounds less tinney as well, but that's a personal observation. The increased low light ability is available on spec sheets, and does make a difference in real life.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLQsuzgbB-w this is one of the videos I made when I first got the camcorder. Only complaint is a slight color bleed on the reds in very bright scenes using auto mode. Using manuel settings its not an issue at all..

I am also looking at these two cameras. My needs are a good low light performance as well as action sport shots. I had purchased the Panasonic FZ8 but have returned it because the inside low light pictures were very noisy and grainy. It took great outside pictures and was responsibly fast. I'm currently wanting to try the Sony but don't like the idea of having to buy a memory stick for it, I have a few sd cards that the Canon takes.

The rear camera I received has 4 LEDs and rotates vertically as does the camera on the main unit. They appear to be the same camera with the only difference being that the rear camera is mounted on a mount instead of attached to the main unit. I have a picture of the rear camera but am unsure if I can post it. I'll try. Check the product description page on Amazon my photo will be there if I can post it. [update] The picture is now posted on the main product page. http://www.amazon.com/Sensor-Video-Camera-Recorder-Camcorder/dp/B009CTU23A/ref=cm_cr_pr_pb_t

I bit the bullet and went with the Sony. Mainly because Circuit City was offering it for $329. Also because it had a better fps and ISO capabilities, if I remember correctly. The 4 gigs of memory set me back $59 though and the case was another $20, so that put me at $415 after tax. I must say that this thing takes awesome pics. I got it mainly for my kids sports. The 2.2 fps and sports mode are nice. The image stabilization seems to do a good job to on other pics. I have not used the remote control yet, but plan on usnig it to try and get some close ups of birds or squirrels, etc on a day when I have nothing else to do.

I just received the model 365, the impact model. I think. It is the bmx one, same as for snow goggles, but with a nose guard. They were on sale at woot for 85 bucks. Anyhow, the lcd screen is merely a status screen, it tells if you are recording, no video. Also, I have looked at the spec sheet, and I don't see any optical zoom. Huh? Haven't tried it yet.

No the sport headlights are clear lens and have different bulb config. Sport headlights have 2 bulbs i am pretty sure. In the description W/O Sport means without sport package.

There is no difference.Looking up the camera with the V or B separately the same camera comes up with the exact same specs for both.

Both cameras are built in, you can see it on the picture - rearview is on the right side from the screen

I purchased both these cameras at the same time, the sony at my local best buy and a panasonic on amazon. They are pretty close to the same, the sony has a little more true color indoors but the panasonic has more vibrant colors outdoor. The sony looks a little more washed out outside. I was impressed with both cameras low light recording. The image stabilizer worked a little better on the sony I thought, the problem I have with the panasonic is that it almost tries to overcorrect the shake. It seemed any time I used the touch screen while recording (ie...zooming) I notice a slight jump in the picture. I think with a little practice I can eliminate this by how hard I tap the screen, but it's touchy. I didn't seem to have that problem with the sony. The panasonic gets a little warm in your hand, but considering I use it in a hockey arena it doubles as a hand warmer! The panasonic comes with a video light and a hotshoe and u have more manual settings. The software that comes with both is crap, plan on buying third party editing software no matter wich way u go. Is the difference worth the $70 more I paid for the sony? probably not, I can buy an extra battery and SD card for the pan. If you could find them for about the same price though, I would go for the sony.

There is 300 USD difference for a start!You are correct about the mirror. The video auto-focus is far faster and 10fps is the fastest you'll get at that price.
