I'm planning on getting into imaging, and want to get something smaller and less daunting (and cheaper!) to start off with. And if I can then use the that first camera as a guider when I get a better main camera, then that would be great.

The name says it all. It's an auto
guider, not an imager. From my experience I expect it will be quite noisy as an imager. It's also monochrome, so you'll have to organise filters if you want colour. Not sure what software (if any) will allow you to capture images.
