hi all...

What is the difference between Epic-M and Epic-X? :confused5:

Best Regards.

 

[Bob Gundu]

same except slightly different build material.

There used to be more differences in warranty and upgrade path, but now it is only the former (2 years instead of 'just' 1) and how the casing is produced. So from a practical viewpoint, the main difference is the price tag, though I'm sure M owners will disagree.

 

[Timur Civan]

Though no one says so, I think the original M's got choice parts. The pick of the litter so to say.

 

[Evan Starkey]

I think the M is machined and X is cast also priority first to upgrade ?

Well the only cameras being made at the time were M's. Looking forward to being invited to upgrade to Dragon!

Correct, except for the last part. The Ms that came out before the Xs have priority but now it's according to when they are bought. Also as stated earlier the Ms have a longer warranty. All in all the Ms are like the "hand made" version and the Xs are the "mass produced assembly line" version, if you will.

No one points the obvious. One is spelled with an M the other with an X. Hello!





:blush: sorry could not resist to make that joke.

Thanks for that Robert, also Jarred land tells me that these are the blacksmiths who make them :wink5:

Apart from Machined difference, M had different audio board, and i guess a few others things. M were more noisy (fan). I think now M have been updated to the X quality. But I'm not fully sure as I don't own an M.

Stephen?

Thanks for all.

I just purchased two M's and when i asked what the differences were I was told the M is kind of considered a collectors item....no really...that was the response....cause you know...you buy a camera like this because you want it to be a collectors item...I was floored...then promptly wrote a check for two M's....WTF is wrong with me.....all kidding aside I only got the M's to jump the line for Dragon upgrades otherwise it seems like a waste of money.

Just a though, how come hand made one makes a lot deference budget wise than machine made , you guys remember the price when both came out.
