Hi Greg and Chris,

Many thanks for your suggestions!

Greg the FLI FL16803 certainly looks to be a gem of a camera, but is probably more than I can afford in good conscience at the moment. Off line I had a suggestion to consider the STL11000M which I believe has 9 um pixels. I see SBIG doesn't make the camera any longer, but I suppose they would still repair if necessary (?). Greg, I'm curious how you mount your cameras to the TEC? Do you use the helical clamp on the FeatherTouch, or do you remove the clam and have everything screwed together. Also wondering if my focuser will allow me to get full illumination of these larger chips?

Chris, I'll be interested to see how you go with the new SBIG camera. It certainly offers some interesting features, that's for sure!

Pete
