Marcum vs Aqua Vu

[Ryan_V]

I'm in the market for an underwater camera for next season. I've looked at the aqua vu's and the marcums. So far I'm leaning tward the marcum, based on the research I've done online. I haven't really been able to look at them side by side in a store or anything yet. Just wondering if anyone out there has any advice for me. Any pro's/con's for either, personal experiences, etc. Thanks for the help folks!!!

I bought the Marcum VS460 in December and have used it several times. Easy to cart around in the case that comes with it. The built in sun shield works well. A great feature is the motorized rotation. 360 degree view of what's down there. It's been able to pick up fish deep in dark water. I would recommend it.

I have used both the aqua vu and marcum-vs560 and the marcum is by far the better camera with the marcum there is no extra equipment to buy.360 degree viewing even in deep water without twisting the cable easy to carry larger viewing screen. go with the marcum.

I will agree I really enjoy the Marcum 560. Its addicting but a great learning tool. The remote control is great! No more twisting cables only to have them twist back. Also nice to know wich way your camera is facing with the on screan display.

I've never tried the Aquaview but I love my Marcum. I think the screen is slightly larger and the motorized rotation is nice to have.
