DSE 5 #2 July 5, 2007 Both are 1080i, both are HD. Differences is OIS vs EIS, for non-belly flyers it appears the HC7 has some issues. Some folks are using them, others aren't. HC3 is discontinued, but a great lil' camcorder. HC5 replaced it. Both have the same MPEG encoder, but the HC 5/7 have better sensors, and better DSP, as they're newer/third generation. HC3 can be had very cheaply, I saw some at a store recently for around $600.00 USD. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
