I thought I had it all figured out and was going to buy the DMK but now you throw Lumenera into the works! I know these are far more expensive - what advantages are there?

Several pluses I think Dennis. USB2 operation so shouldn't need a separate power supply for the camera. Even lower noise. 12bit as opposed to 8 bit so more info per pixel. It has a larger pixel size too which would be an advantage for lunar shots, but perhaps not for planetary. It's also designed specifically for Planetary work, not as an industrial camera adapted to the purpose
... and Damien Peach uses 'em so they must be good
cheers,
