Thumbs up New Lunar/Planetary cameras from The Imaging Source

Great news for those that haven't bought the Flea3 yet.

The Imaging Source have finally released their own line of DMK/DFK cameras with the Sony ICX618 CCD. The ICX618 is the same one used in the Flea3 and is well known for its extra sensitivity and low noise.

It'll do 60fps at 640x480, they're available in Monochrome or Colour, and in USB, Firewire or GigE.

Release news here:

Products page here:

They start from $490, ex-tax and shipping.

If I get one of these, it might just be enough to get me outside in the cold and do some imaging again.
