Starlight X FW = $560.00 Astronomy electronics center (2" 5 position)
Astronomiks LRGB type II = $535.00 AU OPT

Total = $3990.00

Leaves $1010.00 to get to 5K, you must need a lot of adaptors .

What would the cooled DSLR cost new, 2 - 2.5 K ??? and only delta T of 25 degrees C.

QHY were selling the 9 with FW and filters for about 3K not so long ago, probably could still get one close to that price now.
