I don't know whats so "easy" or "different" its a OSC TEC camera. they have their own propritry software which gives you a little bit of image capture for dummies, but then again nebulosity is about as easy as it comes!

a qhy9 OSC is 1600 dollars now and the mono with filters not much more with the famed kodak 8300 sensor. If that doesn't float your boat then the QHY10 is right up there too.

Don't be fooled by great marketing techniques from the marketing dept at celestron and unless this camera comes in under 1000 dollars there is nothing different apart from pretty colours and plastic cases and probably less than optimal TEC...!

EDIT: OPT sell them for 1500 dollars +P&H..... qhy9 1650, to be honest most beginners don't have access to big illuminated realestate... large sensors will be more difficult
