difference between Html.HiddenFor & HiddenInput attribute

HiddenFor description is: Returns an HTML hidden input element for each property in the object that is represented by the specified expression.

I read that it is useful for fields in your Model/ViewModel that you need to persist on the page and have passed back when another call is made but shouldn't be seen by the user.

HiddenInput description is: Represents an attribute that is used to indicate whether a property or field value should be rendered as a hidden input element.

Can you please tell me when is HiddenInput useful? and when to use it instead of Html.HiddenFor?

Thanks!
