Hey everyone,
Posing a question here, I am looking for a dedicated Astro cam for deep sky. Considering the ever present budgeting constraints I have seen some decent reviews and dabbling with the 585 for DSO’s.
It has zero amp glo, low read noise, high QE, not a half bad sensor size for a planetary camera etc. Would these features not reduce noise a bit at least from the warmer sensor if I look at exposures between 60s - 180s? Also well suited to my SW Evostar ED80, sampling is good with and without a reducer. And framing seems pretty decent on a fair amount of deep sky objects.
Now, no cooling of course and yes a smaller sensor but certainly will fit a good number of smaller to medium DSO’s and galaxies.
Should I rather look at a used cooled camera, first prize is 533MC Pro, then 294MC or the 183MC Pro? Or would this be a good starting point? Any advice welcome
