Red 40 vs. MP-E5

I have a Red 40 and love it ... I just bought an MP-E5 brand new at a killer price .... what differences will I see?

 

The Red40 takes a much better picture. I don't think the MPE5 takes video and the Red40 takes HD video plus has audio. There are way more settings with the Red40 as well. The MPE5 is a hell of a camera for the money though. Have fun with them.

 

It's half the price, Tom ... so I am excited :D

 

^what he said^

 

Boom. Spot on.

 

I remember Pat's pics as he labled from the different cams ...."much better" pic??? Not from what I saw...

 

I am really happy with my red 40 but I am going to give the 5 a shot on my next order

 

Pat, could you post some comparison pics????

 

I love my red 40.

Well Tom Nailed it of course, but don't be fooled the picture quality on the MPE-5 is fantastic. The options, is where it lacks and only where it lacks IMO

 

its better than a cuddeback

 

Any one seen any good camera deals around lately? I guess it is the wrong time of year for any really great sales.

 

Red 40 IR's on half

 

MPE5

 

I do NOT see any difference in quality between either cam ... in fact, the night pictures are clearer on the MP-E5??

 

All in the set up. I set the MPE5's close to target area. The best night shots on the MPE5 are from a cam mounted 8 feet up angled down using the ground as a backdrop for the IR's which results in better night photos. The Red 40's I set anywhere as with those LED's the night shots will be lit no matter what and I run the Red's with the IR's set to half.

 

I love em both. 40 is going to have a better quality but mpe5 is not far behind

 

I have both they are both great camera's. Love them

 

Thanks for the info, guys... I should be adding my MPE5 to my Red 40 any day now

 

cool, keep us updated.
