QHY8 OSC Classic - $650!!

For sale is my trusty Qhy8 that has served me VERY well over the past several months. It gave me some great images at astrofest and beyond. I'm looking to upgrade to maybe a 1600mc or another QHY havent made up my mind yet. I just cleaned the sensor with a APSC cleaning kit, it is now spotless. The cooling works flawlessly and gets the sensor nice and cold! All the cables are in working condition but are a bit tatty if you want to replace them. They are not expensive. I'm including an AC adaptor if you want to use this camera on the mains. The camera comes in a padded case which means that shipping is possible although I would prefer pick up or I can drive within 1.5 hours of the Gold Coast. This camera has taken better pictures than my more expensive dslr and is a great intro to cooled ccd. I know I learned much from this camera . I've included some images I've taken with the camera BUT this is not utilising the full potential of the camera as my processing skills are not up to scratch

$700 + Postage or pick up from Gold Coast QLD. An Absolute bargain!
