Not much help here... (I own similar Sony
one-chippers, and I go back and forth between
having a smoother picture and a tad better low
light range with one, and a sharper image with
the other...). Neither is as good as a 3-chipper,
but you will probably like either one well enough.
Flip a coin, and see if you like the result...;-)
