I started back in 1992 with an LX200 and SBIG st6 camera and colour filter wheel for tricolour images and I had a lot of fun taking DSO images

Learn't alot about many things eg.Polar alignment...it was part of the journey.

Years later I bought a Meade DSI ,Nikon D70 and 350D and my enjoyment continued into new realms. Each camera had different characteristic that suited different forms of imaging , some wide some narrow.

Bought an ED80 to image through and each camera gave me something different.

Recently I have Bought an SBIG ST237A camera (secondhand)with internal colour filter wheel and yes its a small chip but it has certain features like sensitivity , cooling,autoguiding that make it worthwhile and I look forward to this journey.

So I guess no matter what camera you buy you will have heartaches and great joy from the journey you will embark on.

I certainly have!
