Difference between Hoya 58CIR or Hoya HMC ? Does the more expensive HMC give that much better results to justify the price?

Yes it does. I would never consider using a non-multi-coated filter on a digital camera. The reason is simple. The sensor has a flat glass protecting it (called a low-pass filter - LPF). Some light will bounce off the LPF and head out the lens. Since lens elements are multi-coated and curved, very little light will reflect back to the sensor. But since the front filter IS flat, you can get a lot of light bouncing back. If you use a non-coated, or single-coated filter, you get a lot of light reflected back into the sensor. This shows up as a loss of contrast (veiling flair) or as ghosts and hot spots. Multi-coated filters are designed to reduce this effect, but cannot eliminate it. This is a real problem when you shoot into a light source. When shooing into a light, ANY filter will degrade the image. Multi-coated filters are much better, though.

there are two different brands. I discovered that the Hape one was better built. If you found the Hape one for cheaper grab it!

Hoya Standard filters have one layer of anti-reflectant coating to each surface of the glass to suppress reflection and increase light transmission. HMC (Hoya Multi-Coated) have 3 layers of anti-reflectant coatings on each surface to reduce average reflection down to 3.0% or less. Hoya S-HMC (Super HMC) also have 6 layers of anti-reflectant coatings. Finally, the Super HMC PRO 1 is made of thinner glass (only 1mm thick), also with 6 layers of anti-reflectant coatings bonded to each surface of the glass.

I would say that the Hubsan 107C might be a better choice. I say this because this way you get the blade shroud to offer some protection from flying into walls and the sort. if the camera isn't all that important, you might think about the Syma 107G. This can be purchased for about $20 rather than $60. In any case, I do recommend Spare blades. It's great to get them started at an early age, this really is a fun hobby.

They're comparable in price and aperture and, since they're both Newtonians, their focal lengths are probably close. Their focal ratios are different, though. The Celestron has a focal ratio of f8 while the Orion has an f4 which translates to a brighter image. Also the Orion is on a Dobsonian mount, rather than the Celestron's slow motion controls, making it easier for a brand new user to point. In my opinion, though, once the slow motion controls are mastered, it's easier to track an object. Also, if you get the Orion, get rid of the red dot finder and get a small finder scope instead. The red dot finders, in my experience, are not reliable. If the battery runs out, it's useless.

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/909705-REG/Samsung_hmx_f90bn_xaa_HMX_F90_Flash_Memory_Camcorder.html was one I had looked at a while back cheap but the reviews were awesome and I love samsung products. I also found this link http://hardcoreoutdoor.com/new-gear-alert-ipad-optics-adaptor-from-larue-tactical/ don't know if that would help and this one http://www.scottcountry.co.uk/watching-ufo-wildlife-and-hunting-with-Yukon-Ranger-Digital-n1031.htm I was just googling the question you asked. Hope it helps

I don't think there is any difference there. But my suggestin don't buy either. Better buy 798H secura. It's way better plus it's self cleaning. I got 997MC and I am tired of cleaning Regret regret and regret that I got it.

It's been so long that I have forgotten. Gave those two cams away sometime last year and have not looked back.Save yourself the grief and buy a HikVision DS-2CD2032-I or ....2333-I for less than a hundred bucks on AliExpress.As with most cameras, the Hiks do not require any special software: you just log into the cam's web page.

One reviewer says Vixia HF G10 owners won't find much reason to upgrade to the G20. The biggest differences are price (the G20 lists for $1099, while the G10 was about $1500), and much-improved low-light capability. Otherwise they're reportedly almost identical. I can't compare based on my own experience, but I *love* my G20!

Go with the Legend Hcx, I know it's more money but the Micro Sd card slot makes a HUGE difference in the maps you can do. I own the the Venture Cx(NOT THE HC) and I have a 2gb micro sd card with streetmaps and Topo for the entire US on the card.The letters in garmin speak mean this H= High Sensitivity, C=Color and X= external Memory card support.If you want to save 20 or 30 bucks go with the one I was saying the Venture Cx, but I bought my unit over a year ago, when the High sensitivity units weren't available, Today without a doubt I'd go with the Legend Hcx(they don't make a Venture Hcx just a severely limited HC. You are also going to need either Street maps or Topo(for hiking) so figure on an extra $125 or so or look online for free options, hope I helped you.

Yes it is Multicoated. You will see on the ring that is says "Hoya HMC". The HMC is Hoya's designatin for "Hoya Multi Coated". This is a great filter and find myself using it more and more all the time for long exposure shots.

Good question and something I had not looked for when I purchased the filter since it has become customary for all high end filters to be Multi-coated. I had to go to the Hoya website and saw that the filter is designated as DMC (Digital Multi Coated). I have always had good results with Hoya.

the major difference between HDVR-150 and HDVR-180 is the resolution. HDVR-150 is FHD 15 frames by software, HD 30 frames. 1 Mega pixel. HDVR-180 is FHD 30 frames by hardware, HD 60 frames. 5 Mega pixel. That is why HDVR-180 is much clear than HDVR-150. Depends on user, HDVR-150 is quite good enough for the general use. If you prefer a very clear videos, HDVR-180 has it. thanks Marie

Daniel, The major thing between these two is the reticle one has a first focal plane reticle (bushnell) which magnifies with your magnification setting. The MTAC has a 2nd focal plane reticle which will not adjust with your magnification. Some reviews I read about the MTAC says its way to small (i suspect not for the style of scopes we are talking about) The glass would be the next thing, personally I have not had tons of time behind a Burris scope but I typically suspect it to be clearer and better eye relief. Pros of the Bushnell 1/10 moa adjustments, BDC reticle sighted at 100 yards good out to 500 yards, Illumination is good for medium light, the quick adjust bar for magnification great for changing magnifications on the fly. Bushnell Cons High profile turrets, Illumination not good in bright lights (even though you wont need it). Mtac Pros Turret has covers and are low profile, Crisp clear glass, on off position for every brightness level of illumnation Mtac Cons Turret adjustment 1/2 MOA, Illumination not suitable for bright light (sunshine, over exposed lighting). Price of the scope I think it comes down to two things price and type of reticle. I believe the AR Optics holds over the Burris Mtac because of price, the glass is clear and I have no problems with fisheye problems. The adjustments of the AR optics allow for better sighting in. The reticle different off First focal plane (bushnell) and 2nd focal plane (Burris) is preference. I like the ar optics because I enjoy it at 1x as a small ghost ring for quick transitions, where the Burris will stay the same size through all magnifications. That is good if you intend no magnification out 100+ yards which may be your preference. Its really a hard decision because the two will get the job done, but I feel as I try to do pros and cons between them I feel they both have applications and can be very comparable. I do believe overall the bushnell is the way to go for price point and surely get the job done.

The vortex lines up with my eotech well. The biggest difference between the vortex magnifier and the eotech is the picture window. You definitely have a larger viewing window with the eotech. This does not make a lot of difference at 100 yards and for me, the price of the vortex made it a much better buy than spending another 500 on eotech

I really don't know the difference - all I can tell you is that I have really enjoyed my canon wa-h58 lens on my canon hfg30 camcorder - I use it a lot on a lang p04 stabilizer - with great results - I can see no distortion at all - all the corners are great - love the lens
