QHY9M CCD camera with filters and wheel

Hi All,

Here I am selling my QHY9M CCD camera with motorized 5-filter wheel + 2” LRGB filters + 1.25" Ha filter. I have not disassembled the wheel to take pictures of the filters.
One out of 8 screws is missing on the back of the filter wheel but this has no impact.

In brief:
- 8.6 Megapixel CCD sensor
- Kodak KAF8300
- 5 Position 2" QHY Filter Wheel
- Two Stage Regulated Cooling
- Built-in Shutter
- Large format monochrome CCD imaging that's affordable.

See more details on the link below.

As mentioned above, it includes an Astronomik Ha 12nm 1.25” filter. I have been using it in my QHY filter wheel while imaging RGB to get Ha as Luminance or Red for some nebulae. I found that 12nm is better than 7nm when blending Ha with RGB. (see my Lagoon and Horsehead nebulae via the link below)
A 1.25/2” adaptor allows the filter to be installed in the 2” filter wheel. Using 1.25" filters with the KAF8300 works very well, the camera can be purchased with a 1.25" filter wheel.

The whole lot comes in a protection/transportation case.
Items shown in the picture but not listed in this ad are not included.

Price reduced to $1890 or $1750 without the Ha filter and adaptor.

Used in great conditions.
Pick up is preferred but I could deliver 50km around Glebe, NSW, 2037.
