This or the Sony SS360? They are pretty much the same spec-wise, but the SS360 is a newer version?

I compared the owners manual of the HTS-S360 online to the manual I have for my HT-SS2300. It looks like the S360 has had many features stripped down from the SS2300. The biggest cut was made by removing several music sound fields. The Hall, Jazz Club, Live Concert, and Stadium sound fields were eliminated and a "News" sound field was added. The Cinema Studio movie sound fields were also stripped down to a single conventional "Movie D.C.S." sound field. Other changes were made to the remote being basically stripped down but added more BD/DVD functionality. The front panel of the receiver also had most of the buttons eliminated except for the master volume and input selector buttons. The Auto Cal jack was placed in the back of the receiver this time. The AMP menu has had several changes, mostly with it being reorganized, but I thought it made it more complicated in my opinion. Some new things were added, but I thought they were irrelevent for the most part like a volume limit feature the Sleep Timer in the AMP menu. The only thing I liked was that Sony simplifed the HDMI settings in the AMP menu. Other than that, everything else has remained the same including the same speakers and subwoofer. Overall, it seems like Sony has stripped down this year's Blu-ray matching HTIB.

Yes,but double check on Sony website! I purchased mine some time back and there could have been changes.

Yes, it was definitely worth the $35 upgrade. I went from a 3602 I had for four or five years and could tell an immediate difference. Do it!

I own a 16 gig S545 and have had it for quite a few yeas now. The difference is that it records FM radio also. When I bought mine, a new one was about $120.00. It seems that none of their models have the FM recording feature anymore. Only voice recording. Other than that you really cant go wrong buying Sony.

Sony costs more than the Sharp. May be a little better in black levels but, worse in other aspects, IMHO, not worth the difference in price.

They are essentially priced the same and practically do not differ that much. I had both, newer one works better for me in general (and finish-wise, black one goes better with my camera).I guess the old one becomes a collectible now :-)

I am not totally sure, but from reading all the other reviews I might venture that date of manufacture has something to do with it and the speed x2 x24 x6 etc. I bought these based on the reviews. I would further suggest to read other reviews and specs, you can also go to a Sony site and inquire there as well. Hope this helps.

Thanks Technology Guy...I have one more question since you guys know what you are talking about. I was just reading a lot of great reviews about the Canon PowerShot S90, it sells for the same price of the new Sony so price wouldn't be an issue. I'm just wondering from the Sony HX5V or the Canon PowerShot which one will be a better buy.

The Sony web site says that the silver version is only available on thier site (directly from Sony) so buying this camera new from anywhere else you should expect to only get a black one.

I prefer the SONY camera. I even have an Old one model ( 1 Megapixel ) with night vision, and even today I've gotten wonderfurl night videos

Hi Monty, I would suggest DPReview www.dpreview.com I have included a link to your comparison: http://www.dpreview.com/products/compare/side-by-side?products=oly_em10&products;=sony_a6000; Additionally, individual review on Amazon are usually true-to-form. Hope this helps.

Oddly enough, I ended up going with neither of these. I compared these to the Sony CX130. Picked them up in the stores and found the image of the Sony to be more brilliant. The Sony form factor was smaller as well which will be good for traveling. Best part is that it's only $350. It uses SD cards (no internal memory), but that didn't bother me since SD cards are so cheap now.

The Sony is now $250 vs. $400 for the onkyo hts 3300. does that mean that the onkyo is now considered the better product due to demand or is sony ht - s5300 both cheaper and better? the comments re the onkyo seem more enthusiastic than for the sony. i don't own a system from either brand--researching first purchase.

I purchased both these cameras at the same time, the sony at my local best buy and a panasonic on amazon. They are pretty close to the same, the sony has a little more true color indoors but the panasonic has more vibrant colors outdoor. The sony looks a little more washed out outside. I was impressed with both cameras low light recording. The image stabilizer worked a little better on the sony I thought, the problem I have with the panasonic is that it almost tries to overcorrect the shake. It seemed any time I used the touch screen while recording (ie...zooming) I notice a slight jump in the picture. I think with a little practice I can eliminate this by how hard I tap the screen, but it's touchy. I didn't seem to have that problem with the sony. The panasonic gets a little warm in your hand, but considering I use it in a hockey arena it doubles as a hand warmer! The panasonic comes with a video light and a hotshoe and u have more manual settings. The software that comes with both is crap, plan on buying third party editing software no matter wich way u go. Is the difference worth the $70 more I paid for the sony? probably not, I can buy an extra battery and SD card for the pan. If you could find them for about the same price though, I would go for the sony.

Why don't you read the specs?I have the 320s-4 and it's perfect unless you want to shave in the shower. I think that's the only difference.
