MarCum OVS400 Questions

[Wall Eye]

I was in a store today that I have a gift certificate for and came across a MarCum OVS 400 marked at $330. I have not done a lot of research into underwater cameras but always thought this would ne a great tool. I did read a recent thread asking for comparisons between the OVS and aquaview. In that thread an OVS560 is mentioned so I assume the 400 is an older model and that is why it is marked down. Is $330 a good price? How much is the 560? Pros and cons from people who have used the 400. Any insights would be appreciated.

Regular Retail Price:

OVS 400 $350
OVS 500 $480

OVS 460 $400
OVS 500 $500

I would wait for new OVS 460/560s hit store, then get 1 or 2 yrs old OVS 400/500 under $200/$300.

$330 is a good price and you are getting a good camera. The OVS 460/560 are going to be great but if you need one now, the $400 for $330 is a good price.

Hey Scott,

I see on another thread you were testing a prototype of the 460. Do you have any idea of how much they will be when they hit the stores? What improvements does the 460 have over the 400? Thanks.
