In the jet bundle description of Field Theories (multisymplectic models, in particular), there are several choices for the multimomentum bundle where the covariant Hamiltonian formalism takes place. As a consequence, several proposals for this formalism can be stated, and, on each one of them, the differentiable structures needed for setting the formalism are obtained in different ways. In this work we make an accurate study of some of these Hamiltonian formalisms, showing their equivalence. In particular, the geometrical structures (canonical or not) needed for the Hamiltonian formalism, are introduced and compared, and the derivation of Hamiltonian field equations from the corresponding variational principle is shown in detail. Furthermore, the Hamiltonian formalism of systems described by Lagrangians is performed, both for the hyper-regular and almost-regular cases. Finally, the role of connections in the construction of Hamiltonian Field theories is clarified.
