Video astronomy back in the day was based on AV technology and the original Gstar EX from Steve Massey was an awesome piece of kit as well as the legendary Watec 120 N+ that was so easy to use. We would plug them directly into a projector and display a 60" image of the pillars of creation!

If you are taking a laptop into the field, then ditch the AV route and chose the best ASI OSC camera you can and live stack using sharp cap - the results will be awesome.
