OK I dusted off the Street Storm again, and this time ensured all the settings were the same for a new side by side! The firmware is now correct on the Street Storm too (the previous one was using the Pro firmware which has a different lens, although from these pics it makes no difference to daytime performance.)
Pricing:
Street Storm: The Street Storm is available in the Russian markets currently for around £110. The DODMT D99 version is around £123.
0806: The Mini 0806 is not yet released and I do not know at this time what the retail price will be.
Settings:
Both cameras have been configured as close as possible - as a quick overview:
Resolution: 2560x1080 30fps
Quality: Super Fine (Highest Bitrate)
AE Metering Mode: Center
Dewarp: Disabled
Dewarp is configurable on the Street Storm and for these comparisons it is disabled - it cannot be changed on the 0806.
Firmware Versions:
The latest firmwares for each camera were used - these are as follows at time of writing:
Street Storm: SSA7810G.141110.V3.5
Mini 0806: 141128
Bitrate (2560x1080):
Street Storm: Average 28Mbps, Peak 30Mbps
0806: Average 18.5Mbps, Peak 23.5Mbps
Video:
Here's a side by side video of the two - Street Storm at the top and Mini 0806 at the bottom:
Pictures:
Top: 0806
Bottom: Street Storm
You can see from the screenshots below that the Street Storm has a wider lens and is just ever so slightly sharper than the 0806 I have and this is highly likely due to manufacturing tolerances (they're both pretty sharp!).
The Street Storm also shows higher contrast in the images captured although uses more disk space - at the average figures here it will use 35% more space for video than the 0806 but if you want to maximise detail captured then this is a trade off you will happily make.
It's good that even with the wider lens it still gives you really sharp images like the 0806.
