Both units are mounted on the same boat...very cool too compare both units, at the same time...What do you think about the differences of clarity in the screen shots?

Looks as if Lowrance has "one up'd" Humminbird in this category.
Great pix, great post.
Glad we both have the lowrance.
Great pics looks like Lowrance has it to me

thx fishton
I think all this conversation is great1 But what I want to know is,,,,, What could be best for the beginner with less than a Lottery winnings be?
I saw the Hummingbird and the Lowrance in action in Florida in April. For the MONEY this is the one: Lowrance Mark-5X DSI Sonar If you want to spend a few more coins go this way: Lowrance Elite-5X DSI Sonar If you want the best, by far, go this way: Humminbird 998 Color Sonar/GPS with HD Down and Side ImagingQuote:

I have a question. I can't decide which way to go. I have a Lowrance HDS 5 but no downscan or sidescan. It cost about 650.00. I cannot decide whether to buy the extended warranty or not. What are my Crappie brothers and sisters doing? Are ya'll buying the extended warranty. It is kinda expensive but it is worth it if you have problems. Thanks, Wes
Does nobody but me have a HDS 5? Are ya'll buying the extended warranty or not? Thanks, Wes
Wish I could help ya Wes but all I got is a simple HB 525
Thanks for replying Rusty. I have been so busy I haven't been to the website in a month and a half. My time for buying the warranty ran out anyway. I don't know why nobody replied because I know there are alot of people with HD5 LCRs. Hope you and your family are doing well, WesQuote:
