Hi,
Just reading your post. Hoping you can help with a camera recommendation (and I have just put a post in the imaging section about this).
I just bought a collapsible 6 inch F5 Skywatcher GOTO Dobsonian telescope to take on a short road trip. I want to do some experimenting with imaging as well as compensate for the small aperture. I have no experience in imaging so am looking for something that is basically plug and play.
I would be happy if I could find something that will capture an image in a couple of seconds. A fuzzy image of the Orion Nebula would be just fine.
Thanks in advance.

If you are taking a laptop into the field, then ditch the AV route and chose the best ASI OSC camera you can and live stack using sharp cap - the results will be awesome.
