I use Lodestars and have used QHY5s directly with my Gemini systems with PHD and with MaximDL and without problems. There used to be a problem connecting certain SBIG cameras with Gemini mounts - an OptoCoupler was required to prevent some sort of earthing problem that others will probably be more knowledgeable about than I. I think it was the older ST7s from memory. But Lodestars and QHys have no such problems.
