because your used to a graph, i recommend staying with one.here's a pic of my lx9. vertical water columns on right half. far right is the zoom of the normal column of the left.the left half is the colored graph. you can push the bottom of the lake to the bottom of the screen on these so it's not so compact for viewing like the picture you showed us is.this picture shows plankton in blue and bottom in yellow and my bait just above bottom and a big crappie going under my jig (size 5 kodiak glow because i'm fishing in the dark). so you can have up to four charts at one time from a choice of six. this is how i like using mine.(Image removed from quote.)the entire graph space is used for the water. same for the vertical charts. the data in between the vertical charts is sonar setting/hud.
Has panoptix really raised the price bar so high that we are recommending the lx-7 and lx-9 as lower priced units???
It's more the challenge of colorblindness that's steering the conversation towards higher priced units
Lots of inexpensive graphs come in black and white or have different color pallets that aren’t predominantly red and green. I would suggest going to a store with demo units and switch through the color options and see if any work well with the op's color blindness. A lower priced hummingbird, lowrance or garmin should serve well. I have had no issues with my lowrance 4 over the last four years and it has several color pallets to choose from.
i picked up a panoptix at an ice show. glad it's not me lugging it around. it's huge. and heavy.
