I am happy with my ASI294 OSC camera but apples and apples I reckon the ASI1600 is probably a better match on the 80mm than my 294 is with the smaller pixels of the 1600. Drizzle processing seems to help a lot but better if you don't under sample to start with.


The 294 would probably match up pretty well on the newt. I have seen criticisms around on these cameras but I am happy with mine, being criticised a bit would not exactly help with resale value. I would expect them to be relatively cheap secondhand, good for the buyer if you are not fussed by the limitations.

The OSC is certainly a benefit come processing time, obviously for LRGB you have four times as many subs to deal with just to start with.
