Doesn't sound very "plug 'n play"!!
Anyone out there doing widefield lens based imaging with mono or colour QHY9 CCDs!!??
Or have I identified a gap in the market?

Doug I would imagine the OSC QHY9 would also do better simply because it's a 16 bit CCD Vs a 12 - 14bit CMOS. It just has greater dynamic range which the DSLR cannot touch in its current form. I think you will have to wait a while to find any OSC QHY9's in peoples hands as they have just been released or are about to be in any case.
Baader have a number of M54 adaptors to suit the QHY9 (mostly M54 -T2, I know as I have them all).
