I'm not yet convinced CMOS is the way to go. I've not seen any better results with the ASI120MM than with the 618 CCD. To it's credit I have seen images on a *par* with some of the best 618 results. A faster framerate over the 60FPS Imaging Source in a camera has me interested however..I'd love to see the QHY5L-ll results, especially on Solar.
Yeah the ADC is a bit pricey for me right now but who knows in the future I might try one.
Totally agree with you over the CMOS cams John but price being nearly half that of a DMK I thought it was well worth a try as a 2nd cam. 105fps at 640x480 will be handy for those sun spots and some lunar shots. Hope to get some good mosaics as the tracking on my Dob makes it tough when shooting 640x480 sections. Just need the freaking weather to improve lol
