Marcum camers Vs. Aqua-vu cameras

[mymaro]

I really havent seen much camparisan between the 2.

I am looking for a camera that will geve me a clear picture a fairly large screen no problems a video out jack and long battery life.

I like Marcums cases and their electronic pan but what i dont like is the fact is thier is a motor that spins the camera. How long will this motor last? Will Ii have to send it in and get new brushes put in it after a couple years? Will the motor even last a couple years? The lower end model Ii like the price but then you will have to turn the camera by hand this is what I dont like. I dont care if it has a light or note I have yet to here of a good light on a camera.

I like Aqua-vu for the name and have herd lots of good about them. I have seen them in action like the crisp image but don't like the fact that they dont have much cushin the smaller screen and have to turn by hand.

I am leaning towards the vs 460 but may change my mind if my budget falls apart.

Thanks for anf future input.

I got tired of waiting for a MarCum Camera to be available, and purchased the Aquaview DT 100 camera. I used it at Devil's Lake the last week of December and really was impressed with the sharpness of the picture. Right now they also have a free (for the cost of shipping) MoPOd offer for the DT 100 and the next model down. I just received my MoPod yesterday and it looks like a slick system to rotate the camera without having the motor in the camera. Th MoPod comes with a remote control, so right now, for less money than the VS560, you can have a great camera that you can rotate with a remote control!

I think the Aquaview offer lasts until February, and all the details are available on their HSOforum. Search Aquaview or NatureVision cameras. Good Luck!
