Webcam

Hello,

I was looking at this YouTube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_NjY_dLkAY and I thought it is pretty nice. I think it is a good option for my particular scope because attaching a huge and heavy camera is a bit risky and could break it.
This article http://www.iceinspace.com.au/?id=63,201,0,0,1,0#CAPTURE also recommends webcams for dobs.

Any webcam you would recommend for my telescope (the Heritage 130p) and compatible with Windows 8.1 (possibly not very expensive, I don't want to spend more for the webcam than for the telescope...)? The Logitech seems to be cheaper than the TouCam.

Thanks!
