Integrated guide vs separate

Hello all,

I am a bit new to all this but am looking at getting into astrophotography and just would like to ask some opinion type questions.

What is better for guiding, an integrated CCD (like in the SBIGs) or a separate telescope + separate camera?

I am asking not only on a cost basis but to me an integrated camera would be a better idea because of the resolution axis is the same as the imaging camera and there is no differential movement potential added with a second scope/camera mount.

Does anyone have any issues or problems that I am unaware about?

Cheers Spocky
