It would be a nice match for my system
I MIGHT even be able to make full use of the 36 mm filters I’ve got

ASI seem to have re-pitched the 294 at EAA, ie video, users. It will be interesting to see how QHY tackles that, and given that it is a mono version, cooling is a given i would think, at least for AP work.

I’m not sure Glen, I’ve done a little bit of digging but haven’t been able to find out much on the sensor. QHY made the announcement over night so it’s still early days.
I have heard of the cooling issues with the 294 but thankfully the 183 has been issue free as far as I’ve heard.
