Up for grabs if my Starlight Express Trius SX674 mono CCD.

Great camera, never had an issue with it. Every image in my Astrobin gallery (http://www.astrobin.com/users/leemr/) has been taken with this camera.

This camera has an extremely high QE of 77%, with a nice flat peak on the relative QE chart meaning that sensitivity is high across the full spectrum.

The camera also has very low read noise, and the dark current is so low that it's not a factor. I've never shot a single dark for this camera.

The camera cools to -40c and has a dry argon chamber thus has never frosted up or dewed up on me, even in QLD's high humidity.

The camera also has a built-in 3-port mini-USB hub which is handy if you want to route a few peripherals through the one cable.

Comes with an AC power supply, power splitter to get power to both the fan and the camera, 1.25" nosepiece adapter and, of course, the USB cable.

Further details on this camera can be found at the Starlight Express site (http://www.sxccd.com/trius-sx674).

I bought this second hand for 2.5k, and I'll pass it on at a further reduced price of $2.1k AUD + shipping + 3% if you want to use Paypal, even though it's in the same condition as the day I bought it.

This camera will cost you in excess of 3400 brand new, so this is a bargain.
