Class 1 ST8XME with CFW10 (LRGB, Ha) Lower Price

In perfect working order and for immediate sale:
  • Class 1 ST8XME (2006) with external guide head port (Original manufacture date 1999, completely overhauled by SBIG with new electronics and chip sometime after 2006). These cameras are normally supplied with Class 2 chips, the upgrade to a class one chip was over $600 from memory. I'm the 3rd owner of this camera.
  • CFW10 (Manufacture date 2009) in great condition
  • Astrodon Gen 1 E Series LRGB filters (specific to ST8 camera) (dirty need clean)
  • One Custom Scientific 3nm passband Ha Filter
  • One Custom Scientific red continuum filter 10nm passband (Amateur Grade)
  • One Astronomik Ha filter unknown passband (bezel scratched and marked)
  • Power Supply
  • USB Cabling
  • Hard Carry Case
For examples of images taken, check out Astromart and IIS forums

This is a great camera, however I've lost interest in narrow band imaging and am focussing on OSC imaging.

I'm between processing computers at the moment, however I've got a couple of images taken with this camera at work, so if you want to see what it can do, email me at lars.hansen@lpma.nsw.gov.au

I'm now looking for $2150, reduced from $2700. This camera and filter wheel is still being sold by SBIG; total package value is way in excess of $4000.

I will pay for shipping anywhere in Australia. Direct deposit or paypal preferred.

Thanks for looking
