Does the elite 5 dsi also have side imaging? I thought the "SI" in "DSI" would stand for "side imaging", but I do not see it stated on their web site.

DSI= Down Scan Imaging Very impressive unit for the price. has GPS as well. Considering replacing mine with the Elite 5 DSI. http://www.lowrance.com/Products/Marine/Mark-Elite-Series/Elite-5-DSI/ Huming Bird has a similar unit.

THE ELITE 5DSI HAS DOWN SCAN ONLY.MAPPING SYSTEM IS INCLUDED FOR LAKE ERIE AND LAKE ONT.EXCELLENT FISHING MAP INCLUDES CONTOUR LINES AND DEPTHS. DOES NOT SHOW MARKER BUOYS, FOR THIS YOU NEED THE MAPPING SYSTEM.
DUAL RANGE TRANSDUCER HAS 455/800 KHS COVERAGE. THE 455 RANGE GIVES YOU GREATER COVERAGE FOR WIDER AND DEEPER IMAGEING. THE 800 KHZ IS USED FOR TARGETING WRECKS, STRUCTURE ETC.
HOPE THIS HELPS OUT, ON SOME QUESTIONS. TIGHT LINES[}]
