Just ordered mine! Thanks for the awesome review!
Thanks for the review and for helping me make up my mind!
This is a really good review. I have been thinking about purchasing an underwater camera and this review certainly helped in my decision making process. Thank you Nicole.
Great in-depth review
Planning on picking up an underwater camera and I’m glad I saw this on the new model! Wish I was heading out with you and Matt this weekend! Good luck fishing and I can’t wait to see the rainy video to follow!
Let me know if you get this!! And thank you!
Old video that popped up while I was looking at aqua vu stuff and I’m sitting here wondering why you looked so familiar then it hit me! Your Upper Red Lake guide online helped me get on the ice last month at Beacons Harbor after driving solo from Indiana for a spontaneous MN trip.
Thank you so much for all the info, I caught over 20 walleyes the first day there lol.
Great breakdown Nicole!
Thank you!
You made up my mind!!! Was in the market and was head scratching until I watched this video. Well done!!! Ordered mine today
That’s great! Big upgrade for them!
Is the screen size adequate? Seems to small for me?
Great video!! Can't wait till ice gets here
Thank you :)
That camera looks like the best new cam on the market! Love it!
It's so awesome!
Great review looking forward to seeing it out under 🤔 the ice 😁👍
Will be using it alot!
Good review. Love that they put a reel on it. I asked Marcum if they have plans to add a reel to the Recon. Nothing yet.
I'm guessing their efforts will be into the Pursuit in the future!
Wow they have a lot of cool gear thanks for sharing ATB Spam
Thanks for watching!
Epic. Super helpful. Santa Claus just left one for me...!
Thank You Nicole. Good job on reviewing the Pursuit. I like how you maybe pointed out something that was an improvement but could be slightly better. Makes it show you were giving your honest opinion and review. Still wondering if an underwater camera is worth the additional cost for ice.fishing which is the only fushing I do other than fly fishing for trout, since I do not have a boat. I love the LX5 which I have had for years. I know the Pursuit will help you, just like you said, with seeing what is really going on under the ice. As you are probably aware, Our Yahara Chain of Lakes have unbelievable algae blooms due to the extremely high levels of Phosphorus in the water. A friend of mine has an underwater camera and he has a hard time using in because we have such poor water clarity. I would like to see how the Pursuit camera looks in our stained algae lakes.
Can't help with stained lakes this winter but we have a few lakes that are VERY susceptible to pollution and summer algae issues - will test that out this summer for you for sure.
I currently own a VS485c and was looking to get an HD camera for my IC. You mentioned a bit more range with the Quest, do you mean distance? For people who primarily fish and use cameras in a wheel house, do you have a recommendation when it comes to the camera quality? I know the VS and Quest both have Sony cameras, but I'm not finding specs on the Pursuit. Maybe a side-by-comparison of the VS, Pursuit and Quest in the near future?
Nichole thank you so much for the review I just watched your review on the marcum recon pursuit hd camera. I am putting this on my Christmas list. Is there a port u can hook up with your android phone to record from the unit and I fish very merky waters and what do u think with this in merky waters and I also don't know if the other lakes are clear or not. Thank you please let me know I am hooked on the marcum recon hd. Tight lines
How does one pan or rotate the camera? Is it as simple as twisting the cord that attaches to it? Thanks
What would you use to Sun block? I can’t seem to see the screen most of the day.
Does it stay stable while trolling with those small side fins?
And about how much does the camera itself weigh?
how would you compare it to the aqua-vu revolution 5 pro?
Awesome Review Nicole! That footage looks great! Does it have any problems in Ice water? I'm way up north and do a lot more ice fishing than boats.
It's perfect for ice! Will be using it on ice all winter long!
@@NicoleStoneOutdoors definitely get some footage of that! None of my local shops have it in, I gotta go 100 miles to get one 😤.
@@WTFMIKE Order online?
@@NicoleStoneOutdoors i haven't been having good luck with Amazon its like they became Ebay from back in the day 🤣 I order things and get random stuff. I needed speakers for the ice house and got 2 electric wine openers lol. But thank you for the time I'm looking forward to some more bite action off that!
May have just convinced me to go with marcum.🤔
How does this compare to the aquavu micro-revolution 5.0 pro? Camera image? Lighting? Build quality? Cable reel?
Glad to see you can troll it. I see its a little bit bumpy and I don't think they make a fin for this specific camera but I can't imagine it would be too difficult to come up with something to smooth it out a little bit when trolling. The cable looks much beefier than the main competitor's reel style unit.
I beat the crap out of it and it's holding up well. Rammed it into about 20 rocks lol
These seem to be sold out everywhere. Do you have a runner up you recommend?
Maybe I missed it but what about the quality of the picture in different depths of water? I'm sure at 4 feet in clear water it's good. What about 10 feet or even 20 feet of water on a clear lake?
Hi, any idea how to use the digital zoom
What tripod you use
how does this compare to the micro revolution 5.0 pro? im really looking to getting the micro rev 5.0 pro do u think its worth the money
It's going to be very similar - I don't have the Revolution 5.0 to compare - although I might look into doing a comparison in the future!
Wish it came with a bigger screen 5” is a small viewing area. The other models with bigger screens don’t have the resolution of the pursuit.
Sunlight readable
1280 x 720 Pixels
1920 x 1080p Full HD Sensor Resolution
So doe this mean the screen your looking at is 1280x720 And recording is 1920x1080?
Correct. But note that according to their web site and the manual, the video output port is only HD (720p / 1280 X 720)
Hey Nicole, great review. I would like to see how it works at night, have you tried that yet?
Nope but I can!
Nicole can you run it off a 12v battery and how does it do in deeper water?
Powered via USB,probably ok in deep clear water.
Very nice review. However, MarCum's price point is a little steep. If it came in at the $400 mark I believe there would be more solid interest. I like the features of the camera, but at that price point, I would rather purchase a new sonar/fish finder for under the ice. Thanks again for the review. The videos take a lot of time and effort to produce, so your time is appreciated. Tight Lines.
Thank you for watching :)
Can I plug it in to my TV in the ice house?
Yes there are ways to do this.
Looks really good, I don't want to get my hopes up until I see Canadian pricing.
$500 USD turns into $1000 Canadian real fast...🤔
Can't help you with Canadian pricing - although I wish I could.
Thank you for the great video. Really disappointed they used a glossy screen.... And Micro USB?... In 2020? ....
Nicole, Your link to Marcum results in this message: "Coupon "stonebeanie" does not exist!"
I will look into this!
@@NicoleStoneOutdoors Any news on the coupon ?
could you hook me up with a box of bluegill/crappie lures
VIEWEYE is easy and good
only 75 euro
Isn’t worth $600 in my opinion.
