Aqua Vu DVR

[smeese]

Who uses this? I am intrested in adding one to the arsenal, but would love to see some footage first, anyone got a good vid to share or some feedback on the unit itself? Thanks for the input.

[RonWBasser]

Look down at the thread below titled

Camera vid to share... anyone else?

Or just go to youtube and search for aqua-vu.

I have one, they work ok.

[landscaper]

i would also like to know how well they work?

[RonWBasser]

Mine works fine, it can take either still pictures or as many videos that will fit on the memory card that has to be bought separately. They take a SD card. I use a 2GB card, fairly cheap to buy.

Basically you push a button on it to record and another to stop the recording. They record in an ASF format.

They seem pretty chincy looking, all cheap plastic but they work good.

My 2GB card will hold approximately 90 minutes of recording time.

I have one as well.. If you go to the aqua-vu web page you can see footage I took with my DVR, Its titled Bedding bluegills.

I like using it, it allows me to show my friends the fish I didnt catch 8-)

Do they ever clearance them out at any stores that you know of in late winter/spring?? I would like one, but $100 is more than I paid for my Scout.

[RonWBasser]

I think I paid more than $100 on a late winter sale at Cabelas 2 years ago.

I have started using mine more in the summer now too. I have a sideimaging fish finder and came across what looked like a sunken boat upside down on the bottom of a lake. Came back with the camera a found it was a huge rock, about 15' long and 6' tall. I saved most of the video on the DVR so I could study it later. I had the thought of fishing right next to that rock this winter because it had lots of fish of every kind next to it last summer. Ok, I'm way off the subject here

Best deal I found was 139.99 online for the DVR. Needless to say, it is on the way. I am hooking it up to the Scout XL

Mills Fleet Farm and Scheels both had it for $99

[smeese]

Scheels had it for 199.99 as did the Bobber Shop, Gander and Mills I did not look into.

[landscaper]

i have seen the for $99 and i think it would be fun to show friends and family all the cool stuff that we find!

[Ed Carlson]

Gander sells them for $99. They sell well all over.

I do not see any clearance on them any time soon as they will sell in all 4 seasons and Nature Vision has not released any plans to discontinue them.

[smeese]

Dang I knew I should have looked into this a little further. Oh well. Shots taken will be priceless

[zamboni]

Yeah Smeese, are you sure??? I was in Scheels just the other day and they were $99, in River Hills Mall.

I am going to college up there now, and somedays I have a couple hour gap between classes, so I go to the mall, Gander, etc and screw around whil I am waiting.
