Exclamation Confused on which camera to use

Hello all!

I have made a promise to myself that I need to get out with the telescope more this year! Didn't get out too much last year as I have had other priorities on my list.

Current cameras:
- NexImage 5 (planetary)
- QHY5L-II Mono (solar)
- Canon 1200D (not used for astronomy but maybe can?)

Currently have the NexImage 5 for sale and contemplating if I should sell the QHY.

I have been eyeing off the ZWO for planetary and solar but that would require me buying two cameras (one colour and one monochrome). Also now that I will be going to dark sites more often to image should I get into deep sky imaging?

The last thing I want is to end up with 4 different cameras for different purposes.

Maximum two cameras would be sufficient.

Some advice and help in the right direction would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Stefan.
