Hello,

This is probably a question with an obvious answer but..

I am considering purchasing a camera to start playing with astrophotography and the Mallincams produce some really nice images, but their availability and price seem high for getting started compared to the cameras from Imaging Source (The Imaging Source USB Astronomy Cameras).

The images from some of The Imaging Source also look really good. So, what are the things to consider when comparing the two? The price is pretty significant so I figure there has to be some details I am not aware of.

I want to do some moon, planetary and deep space objects so maybe I should not be considering either of these. Would something else be better? I don't really have a budget in mind, just want something to get started and get some decent results and learn the whole process.

Thank you in advance.
