I'm also looking at this camera, much better system than the aquaview for about the same price.

I have the 305 - its been great - we have been using it primarily to set up tip ups, locate structure and weed edges and place your bait exactly. Saves a lot of wasted time. Email me or call my mobile 414-640-4748. If you live around here your welcome to see it on the lake.

I was working for a sporting goods store last winter at a sportshow. They had an Aqua View and an OVS-300 side by side. The clarity of the picture was very noticably better on the OVS. Consequently, they sold out of the OVS cameras.
I used to have an Aqua-View, I sold it and got an OVS.

What is the best price you've seen on your camera. Here in MPLS you can get it at Thorne Brothers for 349, but I'll probably wait till the sportshow when they tend to negotiate a little more.

Thorne Bros is where I got mine. I can't remember what they are asking for them.

I don't have a direct number, but Thorne Bros carries them and they know all about them.

Watch out the OVS is only a ice-unit, doesn't work in the sunlight even with the new sun screen, it bleeds out. Also beware, no service, no recording capability, very few accessories, poor cable storage and the lights are only 1/2 as bright as the Aqua-Vu. OVS are selling in Mpls for $249 complete.
