    106sv VS 126sv

    Long story short I ended up with one of each at the Black Friday prices. I will be returning or selling one. Not to make money but because I don’t need both. Is the 126sv worth the extra $500 over the 106sv? I’ve read that the resolution is the same so the picture may actually be better on the 106 due to smaller screen. Already have another 106 and 93 that whatever I keep will go with.

    I had all 10s and now have 12s. I prefer the 126s

    The only difference is real estate. Yes, the 10 has the tighter pixel count but how high def do you actually need?? If you didn’t have the other finders, I would say go with the 12 because that extra real estate makes split screens a little bigger and easier to read. On the other hand, ousting the slower 93 in favor of the 12 to do a split might be nice? It all just comes down to personal preference in this case.

    If the budget allows, go with the bigger screen. If there are two units with the same size screen, then look at pixel count.

    The bigger screen if you can afford!
