But doesn't that point out the obvious issue for all of us? Relative cost of performance, sure 10 x 1 hrs with that camera is going to give you great data, but at what cost? I suggest that some sort of unit cost for performance would help. Is that SNR? And factor in the cost of a mount that can deliver great 1 hour subs.
If low cost CMOS cameras, used in a different way, can get you 80% of the expensive solution, then most likely the market will go in that direction. I would suggest that far more ASI1600s are being sold to amatuer imagers than iKon 231s.
