Kosmo,
You have the update that removes the data from left side, do you think it made a big difference in on the water viewing of SI? I was going to buy a 1198 but the 800.00 price difference between the 1198 and the 998 is a little hard to take.
Any DI unit of 500 series can get the same view as SI units. I did this with my 570 DI, getting just a half of SI. This vacation I am going to get complete SI imagies of both sides on 570 DI, using split screen windows at 455kHz :)Quote:

Have you tried to use the zoom box while in SI? The only problem I've seen with mine is that while in a recording, if I try to use the zoom box to get a closer view of a piece of cover the unit shuts down. Not sure if this is just with recordings or also happens in real time.
This same software download is not available for the 997 unit.Quote:

Greg,
Has anyone else mentioned having the problem I described above with the zoom feature?
Kosmo, can you include what your unit settings are and boat speed are with those pics, im a newbie with side imaging and those pics look awesome
Tom

i should have said get us that pic in 8 feet of water
The picture below was taken at 7 feet depth, and two depths aside, but I think there is no problem to get pictures 10-13 depths aside:Quote:

Even if you are seeing something many feet off to the side, other than knowing which side it is on, how do you know how far out it is and how do you find it again without gps on the unit?
Thanks for checking it out. Guess I need to try it out on some different recordings and see if it keeps happening.Quote:

Those distances should be reduced for 10-20% due to angle of seeing.Quote:

I'm still having the issue of shutting down while zooming SI in a recording. Seems to occur after I tweak the sonar settings and then try to zoom.
Later today i will go out on the lake and try my zoom while recording.ill post back on the resultsQuote:
