Hey Ed

If you want a colour camera, the DFK or DBK's are good. They've got models with the new 618 chip which is more sensitive than the older DMK21AU04.

The Flea3 is probably the most popular around the world right now with the experienced planetary imagers. But like Tony said, it's monochrome.

If you haven't done RGB imaging with a monochrome camera before, or any planetary imaging before, starting monochrome is a tough ask.

I'd be cutting my teeth on a one-shot colour camera and learning the ropes before diving into monochrome imaging. It just takes much more work in setup, capture and processing - that it can put you off if you're not sure what you're doing.
