That QSI WSG-8 does look like a great combo, and comes well under the base price for the FLI. Add my existing filters and guide camera definitely makes it an easier solution overall.

I like a lot of the aspects of the ICX-694, but being effectively forced to use a reducer, I'm thinking it's not going to be great for doing galaxies. Am I wrong to think this?

Maybe I need another scope...
