Difference between the IS version and the IS II version: Is there any difference in quality between the IS and IS II versions?

I called Canon support today for this issue. After looking up the details, the support person told me that ISII has been on the market for 2 years and if I am looking at buying a new camera, many lenses advertised as IS will turn out to be ISII. He advised me to look at the lens instead of relying on the ad. Canon has improved image stabilizaation in updating IS to ISII.

No, the difference is not significant. At this point, buy whichever version has the cheapest used copy available.

Hey Michael, I compared the two but wasn't able to notice any difference. I have the version II and it works great. For the record, I've used the Z finder and this one is on par with it. I'm assuming that the new one has some minor fixes or changes, but I can't really tell the difference. Best of luck!

This is the first one I purchased, so I am not sure the difference. I would think it has added enhancements. Check out the Withings site for more details.

I would look to see if it says "IS" -IS stands for image stabilizer and often, the cheaper lens doesn't have this feature. Also the "II" should be an indicator of how new it is. The older models didn't have the "II" in the name.

Well, there are a few advantages of the older interface, plus it will route you the same (no difference here). As I've noted, the older series has a larger font size, but perhaps more importantly, it has more map detail than the newer series (five levels vs 3 levels).Hotfix is a nice feature (so is the turn arrow), but if you're having difficulties with satellite acquisition, leave the unit on without moving for another 30 minutes "after" receiving the satellite signal. This downloads satellite almanac data (sort of like "hotfix") and allows the Nuvi information on where to look for the satellites, thus giving you quicker acquisition times (you should only have to do this once).

I think the difference is they were used (no software), new (got software). Just a guess. I plan on a new one myself.

Essentially yes, there are some differences though as far as internal quality. Other then these extremely slightly differences there is absolutely nothing different then the name.

I think it is to distinguish it from the MK II. You are correct, there is no non IS MKII. I think they are making sure the purchaser is aware that the optical improvements found in the IS MKII will not be found in this lens. We can debate whether the improvements and the IS is worth $1,000, especially in the light that the most problems found with the IS lens is with the IS mechanism. I have this lens, the older, non IS model and I love it. It suits me well and it performs great. There are few times I wish I went with the IS.

The v1 and v2 are very different, V1 = 600mhz single core CPU, V2 has 800Mhz dual core, the v1 has 2 USB 2.0 , v2 has 1 usb 3.0 and 1 usb 2.0 The v1 has 128mb memory whilst V2 has 256mb. So theres a big difference between the 2, hence the question.

I believe its just the s is the slim version. Other than that the specs are all the same.

I've had both. They both have the same light gathering abilities, but the version II is smaller and is a bit better optically the the original 14-42, although I think you'd be hard pressed to see the difference in most situations. The version II is a smoother lens, mechanically.

I'm not really sure what the difference between BES and BES 2 software is. I do know that when I went to a Brother dealer store and talked to them about software for my Brother PE770, they recommended the BES 2 software and emphasized the importance of making sure I got the BES 2 version. If you look at the details for the one pictured here, it's actually the BES 2 software as well. The packaging for the BES 2 is completely different. The software is fantastic and very easy to use, not to mention the savings from purchasing on AMAZON.

Yes, there are differences. Go to the Navionics website and view the products. On their website they actual place the products side-by-side and compare the features.

One difference I can say is that this laptop has an integrated disk drive and with the new one you have to have the external drive. I like the integrated!!

There is no difference. They both have the same keys, I use the Business one at work and I dont see any difference.
