Here's a pic of the new 50mm guidescope and camera. I need a lighter camera now.

That looks pretty much like the same guider that I have. I think that the asi 120mc that I am using is a great match for the 50mm guider, sensitive but not too many pixels which keeps the magnification up and it's very lightweight. Great planetary imager as well, for those moon filled nights. I have set up my 10" f5 with that guider (on my Heq5 pro) and it guides very well, just need to save some bickies for a coma corrector.
