MarCum VS625SD underwater camera creating ‘nervous fish syndrome’
New tricked-out viewing system introduces numerous optical breakthroughs
Minneapolis, MN – More than a decade ago, many of the country’s top touring bass and walleye pros began quietly stowing a new fish-finding device in their boats. For these renaissance competitors, the underwater camera became their secret prefishing tool—the only electronic device capable of finding and positively identifying their target species, as well as verifying cover and the big tournament winning fish hiding there.
Today, a new leader in underwater video cameras has emerged. At MarCum Technologies, genius meets passion, and the outcome is innovative products built in the USA. New for 2010-11 is MarCum’s VS625SD. On ice or in your boat, it’s easily the most complete underwater camera system ever made. The proof lies above and below the surface . . .
Innovation #1 – New advanced Solar-Intelligent® LCD Technology yields incredible screen detail, even when viewed in direct sunlight. The screen is 3 times brighter than previous technology. An intelligently engineered 6-inch waterproof Flat Panel LCD broadcasts the brightest, clearest underwater pictures possible. It’s like having HD TV right in your boat. (The video resolution is so sharp that several national fishing shows record footage directly from off-the-shelf MarCum systems.)
Innovation #2 – The VS625SD features another MarCum first—a Dual Switchable Color/B&W LCD display. For maximizing underwater detail in clear and shallow conditions, select Color Mode. In deep, dark water where color fades naturally, switch to high-contrast B&W Mode. Now, you don’t need to choose between Color or Black & White. With the VS625SD, you get both!
Innovation #3 – All new high-resolution SONY® Super HAD II CCD optics yields the sharpest colors and the most vivid screen detail available. An advanced, larger image sensor efficiently gathers light and produces a super-high resolution image in either Color or Black & White. Additionally, MarCum’s Darkwater™ Lighting Technology boosts visibility in dark and dirty water.
Innovation #4 – New on-screen displays of camera depth, water temperature, camera direction, and battery status enrich the viewing experience. These enhanced features allow you to track moving schools of fish, as well as pinpoint precise depths of fish and cover. Even locate the level of temperature breaks, including the hot fish zone known as the thermocline. Plus, this system is calibrated for use in either fresh or salt water, and, the units of measurement can be changed from standard to metric.
Complete with a Deluxe Padded Softpack, Stabilizer Fin, 75-feet of camera cable and a more powerful 12-volt 9-amp rechargeable battery with 3-Stage Auto Charger, the MarCum VS625SD is ready to fish at any time of year, regardless of the conditions. If that weren’t enough, MarCum is offering a special mail-in rebate for a FREE Auto Camera Panning Accessory ($50 value, offer valid Oct. 15 – Dec. 31, 2010).
Manufactured in the U.S.A. by Versa Electronics, MarCum Technologies offers the highest standards in flasher-sonar units and underwater viewing systems available today.
