..also looking for another unit.
I've seen some screen shots that look pretty good. I read where you have to be going about 5 mph for the down imaging to really give good results, is that true?
I can't say that is true at all but you do have to adjust the speed of the chart to your boat speed wich is pretty easy. The humminbird has alot more bang for the buck compaired to the lowrance. The only down fall of the 596 would be the screen size but that is only because I use it in a jon boat and it is 4' from my face my eye's aint what they used to be either..
If you go to bass pro and run the simulator the real screen shots are just as good.
