QHY-9 Mono w/filter wheel

This camera has had minimal use - maybe a dozen nights ,if that. I've never really returned to astroimaging like I'd hoped I would, so it has to go. This camera is basically new.

1 x Cooled QHY9 8.3Mp Mono Camera
1 x QHY 5-position 2" Filter Wheel (with specially blacked out electronics casing so as not to annoy your neighbours on the field when filters change).
1 x set of QHY LRGB filters (mounted)
1 x power supply, TEC controller and cables

$1,500 posted to anywhere in Australia

$1,650 including 2" Baader 7nm Hydrogen Alpha filter (mounted) posted to anywhere in Australia

Thanks for looking
