Has anyone had any experience with either or both of these? Is there really any difference(besides a $3 cheaper replacement lens for the PAF)?

I doubt there is much real world difference, I paid about $1 more for the better beamer and all it is made of is 2 pieces of plastic to hold a thing mangifying lens attached to your flash by velcro straps. It would be very simple to duplicate, which I'm guessing is what they did. I'd still go with the better beamer because I'm a member at nature scapes and I know the people running the store are nature photogs who will stand behind the product.

I'm taking pictures of everything, so go ahead and take this place away from me.
