Looking for a cheap CCD/ CMOS camera

Hi

Just breaking into colour imaging mainly planets and star splitting, any thoughts on a new  cheap colour camera?

Thanks

For planetary imaging, you can look at something like the QHY5-II Color:

or ASI120MC:

These are very nice color Planetary cameras at a good price.

I would personally go with the QHY5-II color. It's only 184 pounds. An excellent and very sensitive camera.
