I have only heard good things about the MarCum cams.

I'd go with the aqua vu micro with the built in DVR.but then again I do a lot of run a gun so the size is what really turns me that way.

Love my Aqua Vu micro.

you get what you pay for on the cameras - Marcum cost more, but i think picture clarity and brightness are top notch.  unless you fish in a shanty, you should consider the newer "sunlight" viewable screens.  i went with a marcum 825c - i'm glad i did.

I got the aqua-vu micro last winter.  I wasn't sure all the applications I would use it for but I mostly only used it for checking bottom structure.  Most of the lakes in Iowa I fished didn't have the clarity required for it to really scope out the fish so I used it mostly in Minnesota.  It was still a very nice camera to have.  Last year at Leech lake I dropped my camera down on this little drop off in Walker Bay and there was a big northern just staring at my camera, it was really cool!
