NEW UNDERWATER CAMERA MERGES VALUE WITH HIGH-END PERFORMANCE



For over a decade, MarCum Technologies underwater cameras have flown under the figurative radar of the angling public. Not that MarCum cameras haven’t been in use on the ice and inside the boats of some of North America’s best anglers. But up until now, they’ve played the part of silent assassin; the four-star gourmet restaurant amid a profusion of fast food joints serving junk food.

The word is out. This year, MarCum has reawakened the marine electronics scene, offering anglers underwater camera advancements never seen before. No longer just the elite angler’s choice in technology and quality, MarCum introduces a new generation of performance underwater cameras with the proposition of value. The new MarCum VS620 is a perfect example.

Priced at $399.99, this new viewing system offers fishermen crystal clear glimpses of fish, cover, and the entire underwater landscape. The VS620 features a totally waterproof 6-inch Flat Panel B&W LCD featuring advanced Solar-Intelligent Technology for 3 times brighter images. To produce such rich video, the VS620 uses only premium SONY® Super HAD CCD optics. The net result is total system performance, which delivers the clearest, sharpest underwater picture available. Even on bright, sunny days, the VS620 screen maintains a vivid underwater image. Solar-Intelligent® Technology represents the next generation in underwater viewing, allowing anglers to utilize their cameras in all settings—from sunny days in bass boats to fishing piers to holes in the ice.

“To get this quality of daylight viewability, and to experience it on a high-resolution LCD at this price is pretty amazing,” says professional guide James Holst, host of In-Depth Angling TV. “MarCum has always made the best performing underwater cameras, but the VS620 now makes it affordable for anyone to experience their trademark picture quality. No matter how much you use sonar, there’s still no substitute for a live picture of the underwater world. I simply can’t afford not to have a VS620 in my boat.”

As a complete viewing system, the VS620 also features MarCum’s patented Darkwater LED Lighting Technology—field-proven to boost visibility in dark and dirty water. Other features include a rechargeable 12-volt battery, 3-stage auto charger, and camera Stabilizer Fin for in-boat trolling. Finally, a Deluxe Padded Softpack protects the VS620 for years of use.
