Dsi ii.

Here is a Meade DSI II colour camera and a shoestring astronomy GPUSB box.

The DSI works just fine as you can see from the attached images. I've mainly used it as a guiding and polar alignment camera but found a couple of solar system images taken with it through an 8" dob. It has the box and disks to go with it although I'd prefer to download the latest Envisage Software from meade before I used it again.

The GPUSB has a short guider cable to suit a skywatcher mount. I have used it with both the heq5pro and eq6pro. This device requires no drivers however some software is available for download directly from shoestring astronomy for checking it's status.
