Dont forget the EAF...turns an amatur into a professional...in the old days you could spend up to an hour trying to get great focus..Asiair changes that and if the temp changes it refocused..thats what you want...
Good luck.

Yes it would seem so after checking on the Bintel calculator. I see a couple Youtube channels also recommending the ASI183 as a good match for the RASA 8.
The 183 has a smaller sensor size and also smaller pixel size @2.4µm, so smaller stars maybe and more detail? But as a trade-off for less field of view due to the smaller sensor.

Yes the ZWO EAF is definitely on the list

Thanks again Alex
Pete
