-
- In terms of features, the TR-101 has image stabilization. It is a
- mechanical system, sensing the motion of the camera and adjusting the
- lens position to compensate. It seems to work pretty well. The
- TR-101 also has a 10x zoom, compared to the TR-81's 8x.
-
- I'm not familiar with the TR-200, so I can't comment on it.
