What's the difference between SR100 and SR300? Does anyone know what the upgrade was from SR100?

HI, The SR 300 will have a 6.1 MP vs the SR100 has a 3.0 MP.....I think the SR300 is going to be much much better....now I can throw away my digital camera because 6.1 MP is excellent but 3.0MP is to low. Also this is going to have the latest high tech processer and stablization system. oh, also you can take a picture while you are video recording. Frank

I recently purchased this camera. I fully agree with the success of the firmware updates. I tried a P7000 from a local retailer when it was first introduced but returned it. I can attest to the improvements being REAL and VERY EFFECTIVE. I would like to add I recently shot some comparison photos with my P7000 and my D300 with the 18-200 VR Nikkor zoom. I haven't downloaded to my computer at this point but the on camera screen appearance of the photos on the backs of each camera gives the edge to the P7000!!! If you find that hard to believe...so do I. I'll do more shots, download to my computer and report the results. I recently purchased this camera.

I don't have the SR100 or SR200, for outdoors, the SR300 gets an 8 (it really is good outdoors), indoors I give it a 6. It's a bit unfair to include an HD unit in the scale, so 8 might be a bit much, but I'm going to say it's fair.

I think you're correct and would stay with current firmware. I didn't realize they were coming out with a 10" frame. I'd be interested in more info on that. Is it posted anywhere? Thanks

I could not justify spending extra for the 300hs. I have been using the 100hs for 3 weeks now with no complaints. I do not take much video but overall I am happy with my purchase. I was able to pick up the 100HS when Amazon had the one day sale on gray for 159 out the door.

I believe (but am not certain) that the U120 has the facial identification software and the U100 doesn't. That's the only difference I've found.

It has the new Tizen operating system as well. I do not have the nx300, but Tizen is supposed to have a much better user-interface that is more upgradeable than the 300's.

Bump. I'm in the same boat, don't care too much about 3D, just picture quality. Is the ST30 significantly better PQ than the S30?And just to confirm, the ST30 comes with the WiFi adapter while the S30 does not, right?

Frank, thanks a million for your comparison review of the SR100 vs SR300. I am dissapointed in the low light video's of my SR100 and thought the SR300 would be better as the low light lux specs are better. After reading your review of the low indoor video quality of the SR300 I will stay with my SR100. I shoot mostly indoors so the quality of indoor video's are important to me. Dean M.

The PRS-300 and the PRS-600 are both newer models. The 505 preceded the 700. The PRS-700 was originally intended as a successor for the PRS-505 (it's faster - and has that input capability that a touchscreen gives you). The PRS-505 in turn was the replacement for the PRS-500. However, the 700 (despite being in many ways quite similar to the 505) had certain specific flaws (and a couple of benefits). It, unlike the 505, has a touchscreen, and it also has a light embedded underneath the touchscreen and above the eInk screen. On the plus side that means you can read in darker places without carting a little light around with you, but on the down side it and the touchscreen combined made for a screen that wasn't quite as readable as the 505. In short, yes, basically the 700 has been replaced by the PRS-600, which is pretty similar with slightly better readability, I think also a dictionary, but no embedded light. The PRS-300 is a smaller, cheaper, but otherwise very familiar touchscreen-less PRS-505ish device, except that it contains no expansion slots, and is therefore not terribly useful if you're the sort of person who wants to carry the entire Project Gutenberg in your pocket ;) Speaking for myself I'm pretty happy with both the PRS-700 and the PRS-600 models, despite the somewhat diminished readability - I have never owned a 505 so can't comment except to say that I've seen the screens on them and they are astonishingly clear and paper-like. I would probably buy a PRS-300 if I had the cash and it had a memory expansion slot! Hope that helps...

If by "$300 version" you mean the H8R2-SU3S2, the difference is the later does RAID/JBOD. The H82-SU3S2 shows all the drives individually and does not mirror/stripe them at all.

If someone can answer definitively, please do. My guess would be that you won't see much of a difference between the two in an S100. But like I said, that's a total guess.

I do have a choice and I own them both. I take them both on field trips. The S100FS is faster in getting action shots, but the HS30EXR allows me to get closer to my subject. I usually shoot from a tripod using a cable release.

I own the PR3000. No cable changes necessary, just accessories need to be changed of course. Also, this machine is most certainly upgradeable to 310#. I have it configured that way now. It does NOT upgrade to 410# though like the Extreme2 SE does. Also the extreme 2 SE has a better lat tower, and better seat. the frame appears to be the same though. Kind of like a Ford/lincoln comparison.

I just received a v4 as a replacement for a GS108 v2 that died. I have not found any info yet on what the differences are. The major change in this product, from what I can see, was the transition from V1 to V2.
