Recently purchase the Sionyx Night Vision camera on my new offshore boat and had it connected to my Garmin 8612xsv screens. When I turned on the camera and viewed through the Garmin screens, the view was blurry. I thought something must be wrong. I contacted Sionyx tech support and the response was: "...this looks like a normal Nightwave with a limitation from the Garmin display," Sionyx Night Vision camera resolution: 480p analog -vs- Garmin 8612sxv resolution: 1920x1080p digital This is not a limitation of the Garmin screens, Its the Sionyx Night Vision camera. I read many reviews, watched many RU-vid channels discussion on the camera only to discover the true story and limitation of the this camera is not being told. I'm not a display guru but after spending upwards of $2,700 dollars for the camera and the install, very disappointed customer!!! If you are attempting to plug this camera into any modern digital display 12 inches or greater on your boat you're going to be very upset with the results. STAY CLEAR OF THIS ANALOG ANTQUATED PRODUCT!
I have a 21’ DC and I trailer my boat and it’s a roller trailer would I better off with a shoot thru hull or will this survive loading and unloading of trailer life
Manual tilt fixed is what 90% of boaters need. 45% field view, 1500ft+ clarity and miles of site recognition. "Entry level" is a handheld Aurora sold for $350 view it on your cellphone. So, $1895, call it $2100 and your screen to display it on, ie; garmin Lowrance fishfinder/chartplotter etc is @$1700. Plus install is total pkg is @$4200. That is NOT "entry level" pricing. Why do this review if you've never used it and are not a boater. Their opinion is worth nothing.
