since I didn't get any hits about an existing thread ill start one.

I haven't bought a finder in several years and most of the last couple I just done without. that's not true I have used the vex. several times for depth. anyhow im in the search. man there are a lot of features to consider these days. up down side and horizonical views and all. lol I would love to have side scan but not sure its in the budget. since the finder isn't something I use religiously I don't need much of a unit really. that being said, around 300 bucks is what I figure its worth to me.

thanks for any and all opinions
