Difference between the OPT101 and OP301?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: OPT301, OPT101

Can someone tell me the difference between OPT101 and OPT301?  As far as I can tell they have the same size photodiode, essentially the same responsivity, and other similarities.  OPT101 can take a broader range of power supply inputs, and the OPT301 is in a hardier packaging.  Is packaging the only difference?  If so, why the large price difference?  (Digikey:  OPT101P $8.50 vs OPT301M $88.06)


For reference I'm going to be using one of these to determine the HDMI latency of a projector.


Thank you.
