i was having a look at some astrophotos when i came across this site, the details captured in some (all) of the images on this site are unreal.
i havent seen these cameras mentioned before but im guessing they would cost you an arm leg and kidney going by the images produced. http://www.yankeerobotics.com/index.html
(oh and im not apologising if this makes you buy one )
Nice cameras there and pics. I found a page not long ago with these cameras advertised.. 4500 BP, $10000 Au?. I might have to sell the car! but the wife won`t let me....
When my poor canon dies maybe I can afford a real ccd camera!!! http://www.opticstar.com/Run/Astrono...1ff&p=0_10_0_3
ahh yeh i looked on their site, the 10k cam looks like their mid range ccd,
Trifid Gold camera with a 16+ mega-pixel, 9 um, Kodak KAF-16803 imaging chip with micro-lenses: $10,875, now theres the winner (in $US) lol
There are plenty of others out there, SBIG is perhaps the most common and do have the edge on their dual chip design (imaging & guiding), but this doesn't always suit everyone. Many prefer guide scopes with separate guiders. No such thing as one model suits everyone these days. Many flavours and colors to choose from :
