Hi Peter,
Your posts on CN/IIS convinced me to get the Moravian camera.
I measured the full well at 39900 electrons. Read noise is a bit higher than expected at 10.5 e. But the bias/dark frames look extremely clean. As good as my QSI cameras in every way.
I had a bit of difficulty getting their ASCOM driver to work initially but after reinstalling, everything seems to be working fine. I plan to head out to dark skies tomorrow. Hopefully everything will work ok.
Regarding the ADL300, I dont know if Yuri is making anymore but he certainly didn't make that many! There were numerous design changes while he was making them so it seems that mine might be one or maybe a handful of a kind.
I think the ADL300 fills a unique niche. Just the right focal length (1680mm) with several unique features.
For one, it is perfectly thermocompensated due to some clever engineering using a combination of metals. I usually set focus once and never bother to refocus even with 10C temperature swings. The FWHM is rock solid through the night and only dependent on altitude.
Second, collimation is straight forward and deterministic. Just two screws on back and front for tip and tilt unlike typical RCs with 3 controls.
Third, F5.6 feels just right to me, not too fast that tilt,focus and collimation become a concern and fast enough to get decent amounts of data quickly.
