Please add me to your list of potential buyers. A Beamtech 250 CDK would replace my Celestron Ultima 9.25 almost as a drop-in solution!
What camera would you recommend for this astrograph?
Again, amazing work.

Hi Neville,
Thanks for the positive feedback. The potential list of buyers will have to be short as I intend to produce only a couple per year at this stage. The ideal pixel size for this f-ratio is about 5 microns. I personally would recommend an APSc size sensor for deep sky imaging (galaxies and planetary nebulae) and a full size one for larger objects.

Do you have a web site yet?

Thanks Mike for the "thumbs up". 1450mm FL at 1450m AMSL- interesting coincidence.
I started building a web site but it is not fully functional yet. I want to add a few more products before I enable the commercial side of it. If you google beamtech precision astro gear, you should be able to find it. I don't want to publish the link here, as I may breach IIS commercial rules.
