OK team, Christmas (and it's associated money shortfall) is nearly here, and I am now fully in sell the camera mode.
I have listed it on a couple of other sites, but also wanted to list it openly here.
For Sale:
Cooled one shot colour CCD Camera. Uses Sony ICX262AQF chip. Ideal for use with camera lenses, and designed/produced in China by QHY. Cost effective means of "getting the feet wet" with CCD imaging. Software freely available on QHY's site.
I have really only tried the camera during the day, more to establish it actually works, simply due poor weather. I have ordered a B&W version from QHY, as this is my preference, primarily for Ha imaging.
This camera will be supplied with the camera body proper, associated power supply (an additional power supply is required to power the fan, and peltier cooler), the 1.25" nosepiece, and parallel cable.
I can shoot an image of the camera if required, and also can send details of the website from where these are available.
Priced at US$500, plus a fixed shipping cost of $30. PayPal OK (add the usual 3%). Shipping across the Tassie will be cheaper.
