Has anyone compared these to the CX150 model?
825084
CX150 has been dead for a long time. Its replacement was the CX200, I prefer the CX300 of course. They just go up in quality and price. CX200 is the cheapo model and the CX400 is the reasonably expensive one. They have a lot more that just increase in price and quality. I prefer the CX300 because they are sub $50 and are great. The CX400 is ok, kinda overpriced for what they are, really just nicer looking CX300s. They with a holder, case, and a bunch of other stuff,

I don't know about the150s.Ireplaced a pair ofCX275s the dog chewed with these. both were very good but the CX300s probably soun a little better. The dog is still alive by the way,but only because I couldn't put my hands on a gun

I had the G11, and can say that the G15 is MUCH faster on focussing. I think the G12 is pretty much the same as the G11 in that respect. I haven't done any side by side comparisons yet, but first impressions just going from memory, the G15 photos are better in both sharpness and overall color than my G11. Again, I'm not sure the G12 was, sensor-wise, the same as the G11, but I can say I'm much happier with the differences between the G11 and G15. Hope that may help some.I believe also that the G15 is the first of the G series that can optically zoom while taking video. That's a big plus in my book, and the video from the G15 is outstanding.

VX-2 is an up grade from VX-1 both are great. For price VX-1 price is good. If price is not an option go with VX-2

3 Active from Dimensional Optics work very well. Model I'm using now is A1S01241GD5. First pair I got from them didn't work very well. Images in the background were fuzzy. Emailed them for tech support and was very impressed. End result, they replaced them with the new IF1's. These are great. Every bit as good as the Panasonic's.

I've been using the previous generation BX5s for over a year now and they still sound as good as ever. Never had a single problem with my old ones which is why I bought a new set for another application. So far both sets are working perfectly.

Hello Amy. I see that you've not gotten a reply yet for a few days. I own the Canon SX130is camera that is nearly identical to that of the next version, the SX150is. I even owned the previous model of mine now, SX120is. THe only reason for the upgrade was to get HD video and stereo sound. Other than that, I loved that camera too. I've not studied the others you are deciding on but just looked them over. THere's not a "night & day" major difference between them. Differences of 2x zoom power is not major IMHO. Frames per second in burst mode shooting is. Size may be a factor too. But I can tell you why I like my camera. A manual flip up flash allows unmistakeable control over the flash and keeps the camera from waisting power charging for a flash that you didn't need for that shot. The option of complete manual settings is a must. And the advantage of using AA batteries gives you limitless flexibility of power. Don't let the negative reviews tell you that you cannot take lots of photos with this camera. If you get some high capacity rechargable batteries and enough for an extra set, you'll be good. Several here have recommended Sanyo Eneloop brand cells. That they come precharged and hold that charge for extended periods of storage time. A friend of mine used them and swears by them. I use Ansmann 2850 mAh batteries (which are higher capacity) and they give me nearly 200 more shots in my Canon SX20is than what is rated in the camera manual.

I have a real problem with the SX120 -- terrible white balance on automatic setting. It does better on program settings, but unless I'm missing something and those carry over into automatic mode . . . rarely do I get decent indoor skin tones.

The two types have different in-ear components with the MX allowing more external sound in. I personally don't like to jog with the CX style because it feels like my ears can't breath. :)

To be honest, mine Works really nice even at 125X. About clarity in my opinión at 100x is the average. Please just learn how to use them porperly. I´ve had very good moments with my binoculars for around 2 years.

As near as I can tell the difference between the 20x and the 15x consists of size only - The 20x is described as being a "low profile design", it looks like the collection chamber may be a smaller (1 Qt vs 3 Qt) but the motor, and input output ports seem to be the same

If I had money, I would get the Combat+ for looks. I haven't tried the Combat+ But I do not believe they are twice as good. I would get the Transform. These are great!!!

I recently bought the SX10IS and it's a nice camera, zoom is kind of noisy for the price, so I am sending it back and waiting on the SX1IS to come in. I want the faster burst rate, the HD movie quality and the remote control features.

The X20 has a slightly different sensor that is suppose to be slightly sharper but the differences are very small, as to be virtually undetectable. Some people like the X10 better then the 20 because it has a more sophisticated and feature rich Contrast Control setting. The lens is exactly the same. I was dissapointed that there wasn't more of a difference. Oh ... the X20 displays some of your exposure settings in the optical view finder. But a lot of folks don't even use the optical view finder and instead just use the excellent monitor. It was pretty much of a waste for me to "upgrade" from the 10 to the 20 ... but my son enjoys inheriting the 10. :-) The X20 has a slightly different sensor that is suppose to be slightly sharper but the differences are very small, as to be virtually undetectable.

Mine is a MITW50L6BN12. Not sure what the difference is between a CX15 and a BN12, but I can send pics if you like. I had to move the transformer from the old one to this one and re-route the wiring into the old wiring coupler, but it's working great. If you're handy, it's not bad.

Hey! Ive really never used the sE X1, but I must say that the sE 2200 a II it's really good, and it has gotten great reviews! So I went for that one!
