Vexilar Fish Scout Double Vision without Sonar w/Marcum flashers?

[smokindao]

Does anybody know if it is possible to hook up a LX3tc to a Vexilar Fish Scout Double Vision without Sonar? Always wanted a camera. I know some people will find it dumb to cross use of both brands but Marcum cameras are overpriced. Thanks!!

Overpriced? This Vexilar double vision retails on their site for $560-$670. The Marcum 825 and 625 models can be had for the similiar pricing and they use the super had CCD II cameras which are more advanced. But if your all for the Vexilar double vision I guess go for it.

Im sure you can mount the Marcum some how (i've seen Marcums mounted on Vex kits) but it will not adapt properly to all the cables so you'll have to figure a way to get everything connected to its own power source.

Gander has this is $439 =/

That is pretty cheap, must be on clearance or close out to be at that price or error. Most retailers still has it for at least $520-$550. But pricing is dropping. Im sure the Marcums will come down in price too one clearance rolls in.

Yeah that's what I was thinking as well. I have been eyeing these for a while and came across Gander's price this morning and thought it was an error as well. But if its posted at that price, I am sure we can get it at that price lol.

And if it works with my LX3tc, that would even be sweeter!!!

IMO I still rather have the Sony super HAD CCD II Marcums over the old Vexilar cams using yesterday's Super HAD CCD I. But that just me.

The Marcum 625sd's can be found in that price range too right now.

honestly I want to be a loyal fan of Marcum. That's all I have ever brought. But like I said, there C/B&W cameras are just so expensive.

Listed @ Marine General... you can get the 625sd for $449 or go with the 825sd for a little more.

dam that's pretty cheap also...might just have to stick to Marcum then...thanks for the heads up Andy!!!

BTW GT Onizuka is da man in your profile picture LOL
