Wanted - Lumenera camera

[matt]

I guess this is a case of wishful thinking, but if you never ask you'll never know.

I don't suppose anyone has something like a LU075M sitting around gathering dust that they'd consider selling???

Won't even bother pushing my luck WRT the SKYnyx range

Just thought I'd ask before I consider buying new from OS

PMs please

Thanks

There was one on Astromart the other day

Saw it... and missed it Gaz...

it's the quick or the dead over there

I'll most likely have to purchase from A'Mart anyway but was just seeing if I could spend the $$$ here before it comes to that.

Cheers

You don't want to consider a DMK camera instead? Lot cheaper...

Hi Anthony.

I'm definitely giving the DMK21AF04 some serious thought

I'm just weighing up what size step I want to take in my next planetary CCD camera.

I'm trying not to let the extra $$$ of the Lumenera cams influence my thinking.

For starters the SKYnyx 2-1 has smaller pixel size which I imagine would help with resolution and detail?

There are other differences worth noting in the areas of sensitivity and noise, size of chip etc

But the DMK21AF04 is most definitely on the list
