No contest Doug. I did the switch a year or so ago and couldn't believe the difference. I areas of the sky where I was lucky to find a suitable guide star at times with the TouCam, the QHY-5 shows nebulosity. That, and the ability to drive the guide port direct through the ST-4 port rather than have to use the GPUSB box is also a boon. I would look at the SBIG ST402ME or a Starlight XPress Loadstar now as the only ones in preference to the QHY-5 -at considerably higher prices.
