Besides the Optimate 6 being newer than it's predecessors, what exactly makes the Optimate 6 better than the 3+, 4 or even 5?

The Optimate 6 has variable output current which automatically adjusts according to the size of the battery it is connected to and therefore, it is ideal for different applications, car, motorcycle, ATV etc. Its predecessors Optimate 3+, 4 and 5 will operate only on its rated output of 3, 4 or 5 Amps and has no automatic or variable manual setting for different battery applications.

That depends on a lot of other parameters. What Windows version are you using, what are your needs, and others. I happen to use XP and design graphics mainly for website use, so I went back to 6 after trying both 8 and 10. It does everything I need very well.

I have also used the plus four since they came out. Plus two are good, but just older technology.

Yeah I have the same thing and it really helped. It makes the computer run a lot faster. One thing I noticed was that it could handle more apps open at once, played games better (still not too good but better) and could edit videos much faster

According to HP, the Platinum editition is 6X faster than the regular one. While this might be true, it is however not worth to pay 50% more. The traditional one exceeds my expectations anyway. After all, at least for myself, an average user of this calculator would not notice the speed difference under normal circumstances. So, my suggestion would be, stick to the older one and save about $23.

The one I got in Dec 2013 is 1.0 :-(, but it was on sale so maybe they cleared out the old ones, not sure how much a difference it makes as the 1.0 one ROCKS!

it is pretty fast in Program mode, but incredibly slow in the mode that takes a 4 second video before taking the still picture. Avoid that mode like the plague.

Given the high ISO capability and the noise-handling of current softwares (LR4!), I see no compelling reason for the extra stop, weight, bulk and expense of the f 2.8 version. It is NO sharper than its little brother. And you already have the 85 f 1.8.

I tried both side-by-side. F/3.5 model focused noticeably faster in low light. It also has a better build. On the other hand it is larger, heavier and uses more expensive 82mm filters (F/4-5.6 uses 77mm filters). Plus at the time I purchased it, the 4-5.6 model cost $407$ at my local store and the 3.5 model cost $649, which is $250 difference. At that price difference you might as well get excellently reviewed Tokina 11-16 constant F/2.8. Some food for thought

The '6' has a maximum aperture of f1.4 vs f2.0 for the '5'. To me, this is a huge advantage. Much greater control over Bokeh. I have an M9 and a Digilux 3. I use the 6 the most.

The one I got is 1.8... From experience that is not the only factor for device performance. I am still happy with this one way more than other more expensive device that I got later! Did not try to update or upgrade the os yet.

I returned this model for the 9300. The 9800 model has been discontinued. Same TV, better software operating system. My son who watches much more tv than I do tells me this is the best passive 3D he's seen.

There are both optical and mechanical improvements in the new model. I wish I had the new one, but there isn't enough of a difference to justify the cost to me. The CPC1100 does the job I need.

Good website. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge. I will probably go with the first one an get the software if needed. good advice. The new one looks pretty, gut I don't spend money if there isn't enough upgrade to justify the added espense.

I believe this version doesn't transform at all. Sixth should be just fine.

Smart Evolution Chipset installed in the 7500 and seems to have a faster clear motion rate. Comparisons are readily available on Samsung's website of all of their models. That's how I just answered your question.

It looks like the instant calmer is tiny compared to this. I have the small edition and love it, the calmer looks smaller than that, from the pic.
