PD170 has improved low light ability at I lux (The 2 lux of the PD150
was impressive enough)
Same HAD 4x3 1/3" CCD's as the PD150
New quieter audio preamp (No longer necessary to keep the Mic NR
switched on at all times as with the PD150 and improved S/N ratio in
Manual mode means it's now usable)
Double the graduations on the manual iris control now allows manual
exposure pulls that are worth recording.
Daylight viewable LCD without the need for a screen shade
Larger magnification on the viewfinder (Not sure this is actually an
improvement!
Comes with excellent wide angle lens adapter that used to cost an
additional $300 to $400
All of which are actually very worthwhile improvements over the PD150
