Both Peter Ward and myself are using cameras with frame rates around 15fps and get quality results. Peter is using the Lumenera camera and I am using the DMK41.
I am using several cameras but essentially two for planetary and solar/lunar work. I don't find this a problem at all and it would need to be a great camera with all the things I am after for me to change from the flea3 and the dmk41.
Fire wire is ok but not always convenient and requires an 34 adapter to run at 800mbit. To boot older laptops don't have the capacity to handle these high rates of data transfer. My laptop is 3 years old and only just handles the rates. Something to consider.
Overall at present I don't see that there is cheap and easy alternative to the the DMK41. When usb 3 comes into full play that will no doubt change.
