Another vote for CCDSoft, I use it constantly with the ST4000XCM, works perfectly every time, if you use in conjunction with TheSky 5 or 6 it seamlessly intergrates to give you accurate FIT's headers with the RA and Dec of the center of the shot. I do believe Maxim does that as well, not sure.

I use it because it was designed to be used with SBig's camera's, it handles my focus, target aquisition and sequencing without any dramas, takes a couple of nights to get used to but it is worth it.

On the original post, about using the SBig as a guide camera, PHD can be used although you can only use one chip at a time.

Cheers
