Immigrant from UK - CCD's advice.

Hello guys down under, me and my family will be emmigrating from UK to Brisbane this summer and I use an ATK-16HR with 14" Newt on EQ6 for long fl HiRes imaging. I really don't know who your best equipment suppliers/astro dealers are apart from Bintel/York Optical and Andrews - can they get anything on request?

Was thinking of upgrading my 18 month old ATK CCD to a QHY9 (not yet available in UK) or a more expensive ST10 ME with guide chip, in UK ST10's are expensive at 10,000 AUD. Most astro accessories similar Aus/UK price.

I noticed C14 were 20% cheaper in Aus than UK! What sort of price for the ST10 in Aus and where to purchase one?

Thanks JohnH.
