Toshiba dont make their own lenses, and its quite likely its simply a rebranded thing anyhow to ride the image of Toshiba.

The ben q one seems to have nicer lens specs.

From what I can see the Toshiba shits all over it??? This is more your field than mine though so would like to hear your thoughts as we need a new one.

Toshiba - 10MP Image Sensor, 10x Optical and Digital Zoom, 4gig Memory expandable to 32gig.

Benq - 5MP Image Sensor, 5 x Optical Zoom, can't see any mention of internal memory.

What's the image sensor, will that have an effect on the clarity of the video taken? Being both 1080 HD they should be the same yeh? What's the difference between a 5mp and 10mp sensor?

Picture quality is about more than just how many megapixel you have. Sensor and lens quality is paramount.

Having said that both are entry level so I wouldnt be expecting cinema quality.

A good way to describe it .. put two 50 inch screens next to each other - say a 700 dollar Soniq, and a 2000 dollar Sony - they both might sound pretty much the same on paper being 1080 etc etc, but we all know the Sony will shit on it real world picture quality.

5mp I still more than enough to take a pic and print it at a2/1 size so thats not an issue.

I would rather a nicer 5mp lens than a 10mp any day of the week.

The 10 times zoom is one difference that is a win for the Toshiba though. End of the day unless you trialled them back to back it would be hard to pick I dare say. At that price point they will both be aqequate without being outstanding.

Thanks mate! I am thinking as this will be mainly just for family stuff that the 10xZoom is the difference for me especially as it'll be mainly filming kids running around. At the end of the day as you said, it's not going to be quality video, it's just a family hack.
