There are Black, Blue, V2 and V4 options on this item, all at different prices. What's the difference? Which one are most of you reviewing?

Hi, I checked-mine was a blue V2, the design looks a bit different than the V4, but I couldn't really say what the difference is. I can tell you I still use it at a follow focus on my Sony F3. It works great. Nice solid construction, adjustable start and stop points.

I have the "blue" follow focus. I later added a large Fotga gear to help position fatter lenses on the rails. It all works well, smoothly with no problems ever.

That's the one! I usually buy the X versions, they last longer. Not sure the color is available in a higher capacity but the black 901 is. Definitely worth it!

Hi hamza. No, the one I bought and reviewed here on Amazon is not version 2. It's the previous version. I haven't tried v.2 yet. :)

I got the black one. in this case you should contact the seller for clarification.

I just bought this and got the v4 version. I am not happy. The new v4 version just has small green dots. The v3 version has multi-colored leds shaped like the port number. The color is amber for 10/100 connections and green for 1000 connections. The v4 version does not distinguish between connection speed.

Thanks for the replies/updates. Bummer that V2 isn't shipping yet. Is there nowhere we can buy this thing??

The original was,iirc, silver with black buttons, and I haven't heard of a V3 so I think it's just brain gas on the seller's part. Great device, btw. Highly recommend it.

There's no difference in quality -- the prices just seem to fluctuate for no reason. $17.99 is a great deal for the black, though -- thanks for the head's up! I just ordered three of them!

This would be a question for the seller. That said, I have the black one and would guess since there is only one description, and a choice of colors, it seems logical that the only difference would be the color.

That's what is pictured. The v3 is a significant downgrade. The v3 has no speed indication lights (100/1000) and no mounting holes. Much better to buy a used v2 instead.

I would guess because way more people buy the black one over the blue one. I have both now, and I can tell you the only difference is the color. From what I have seen with both, they are the exact same thing in the same color. I don't want to tell you one thing and have you go and buy it, but that's what I've noticed.

I don't think there is any difference. the "B" at the end usually refers to the color black Not sure what the "V" indicates. Could be just a difference in model # in different world markets. The REAL thing you need to keep in mind is the "X" in the model #. The H400 is different from the HX400. See Sony's website for the differences.

Where did you get this information? Don't spread false rumors please. On the netgear forums you can actually see people post pics of both pcbs with identical components. Nothing was changed except the outer box. THEY ARE BOTH THE SAME. 3700 v2 has not come out yet. Pretty much all you want is to look for the rev21 boards as those are the best ones out there. For the 3700 usually a red box means its rev21 the yellow boxe means you need to check the upc to make sure. 37av is the same as a red box rev21.The major rev you need to stay away from is rev15, its reported with the most major problems.http://forum1.netgear.com/showthread.php?t=52714&page;=1 Where did you get this information?

I had the same question. Looks like the only difference is color. I ended up ordering the black.

Thanks for the tips. I ordered the VRDMC5 then went to ebay and searched for the DVS. Found five for sale-only three were new. I purchased on wiht Buy it Now option for $34.95. Am anxious to try both in combination.

Just the design and colour. The price difference has nothing to do with performance. Just a cash grab.

As far as I know, it's only a cosmetic difference. I have the silver version, and have no personal experience with the black "special edition," so take my comments with a grain of salt. You may want to do some more online research just to be sure.
