Same condition as the rest of my setup.. barely used, as is from manufacturer.

Price: $3000 + postage.

Happy to deliver SE QLD area for a carton of beer.

I've had a few PM's with questions, which I'll answer here.. probably should've been included in the first post.

I purchased the CCD new from ATS in Oct. 2007. - Just like my FSQ and NEQ6, it's seen very limited field work in that time.
It includes a RGH port.
Includes the 2" nose + all the software cd's + cables + power etc - everything is included as comes standard, including the rack handles + pelican case.
I also still have the filter cases.

No issues regarding the camera, however I must point out, there is piece of dust or something on the underside of the CCD window that was there from the manufacture - I've tried cleaning it off, but it wont budge - QA dept. must've had the day off that day. Luckily it's in a corner and doesn't cause any dramas - can be dealt with when calibrating frames also.

I'll whip up some photo's tomorrow.

Cheers,
Andrew

Ok, here's a photo of everything.

I've had a few more PM's re: the dust. It's not on the sensor, but on the inside of the cover plate window. It doesn't degrade the camera at all, is located in a corner and is easily removed with image calibration, but I felt it best to point it out upfront so the eventual buyer isn't disappointed once they have it in their hands.

Cheers,

Would you consider selling CFW9 separately ? If so, please PM me with a price !

If you consider the request from bluescope, and breakup the package, let me know - I would be interested in the filters.

I'm happy to split the filters but would rather keep the CCD+CFW together, unless a buyer wants the CCD on it's own.

[darrellx (Darrell)]

Yeh, I understand your dilema. Sorry I can't help - I would like the CCD, but don't have the cash.

We'll see how it goes. Let me know.

Darrell

[Comet Hunter]

No worries Darrell.

If any one is seriously interested in the ST2000, I can email a frame which shows the 'dust bunny' in the far top corner of a 10min Ha image. I'm sure SBIG could send out a new cover plate if you'd prefer perfect condition.. either way.. this is a nice piece of kit at a great price!

Open to serious offers of high $2k's - this is the last of my gear to go (already sold my FSQ-106ED + HEQ6-Pro).

Cheers,
Andrew
