Scotttyd 0 Posted February 25, 2009 What are the main differences between these two cameras? FYI, I have never used underwater camcorders, and only used them topside minimally without really worrying about quality issues. When using the compare feature on sony's webiste the differences I see are: 1. imaging device is 1/5" vs 1/3" - how significant is this? 2. still picture resolution is significantly different, but not an issue to me. 3. minimum illumination is 5 lux for the sr12, and not listed for the sr10d Is there a $200 difference in the cameras? any advice is appreciated. thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scotttyd 0 Posted February 25, 2009 also, I cannot find an ikelite housing for the SR10d, is this an old camera that they do not make a housing anymore, or too new that they have not made one yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigPhillyFish 0 Posted February 25, 2009 Well there is a few differences! See this Comparison. Still picture resolution 4 Meg versus 10.2 Meg 15x Optical zoom versus 12 x Optical zoom. The HDR-SR10D is min. 8 lux illumination (lower number is better) 2.7" Viewer versus 3.2" Assignable dial Headphone Jack $200.00 MSRP If this is for underwater use, you want the HDR-SR12.
