I do want a lot of smaller objects, like PN's and small galaxies. I know nothing compensates for aperture, I'm just cheating.  |
I would avoid the ASI294, it's problems were fairly well documented during beta testing. My reading on it is despite having great well depth owners can't really take advantage of it due to terrible AMP glow and uneven chip cooling which causes colour patterns which cannot be calibrated out. Flats would always be needed, whereas something like a 1600 can be used without flats, and is easily calibrated.
