Now that's what I'm looking for. Thanks Rick. You've raised a couple of point that I had considered. TBH I've not had one of the latest QHY brand in my hands so quality was an unkown quality . Having an SX I know of the quality and service behind them well. Though I hear great things about the QHY service as well.

The stated well depth does leave me wondering. That's great capacity for a 6.05 micron pixel when the SX 25 only has 25ke- with 7.8

The image size is also a plus for the 10. 14.2 mp is a nice amount of real estate. Though the 25 isn't a slouch either. With the figures in CCDCalc the FOV is all but identical on the same scope. About the only thing that changes is the resolution from 0.69 - 0.89. With the sorry seeing around here lately that might be the better option.

Rick are you using an external IR filter with the 10?
