I’m keen on jumping from an APS-C DSLR after nearly 4 years to a cooled OSC later this year and have been researching the new ZWOASI2600MC since December 2019
The biggest problem is that reviews on this camera are limited mainly because it’s only been around since November / December last year in the US and recently in Australia ( only 2 reviews on cloudy nights and a couple on the ZWO site ) but I did find a good review on AstroNorth.com
On paper the camera ticks all the boxes but reviews including images are the litmus test
This camera suits my image scale for sampling with my newts ( 0.80 to 0.90 arc sec per pixel ) and FOV for framing most of the objects I imaged to date and hope to image in the future
I did look at the ZWOASI071MC but the 2600MC looks like it has superior performance
By the way I was watching NEAF 2020 virtual today and noticed that the QHY268C OSC Camera has identical specs and price to the ZWOASI2600MC ( same camera , different brand ) but both made in China
Im going to wait until things settle down with pandemic and make a decision later on in the year. I suspect supply of Astro products out of China to down under would be a struggle at the moment ??
Cheers
