Getting closer to a decision, down to these two

[lee g]

Ok so just to recap I have an 8” sct (cpc800) on alt az mount with no plans on changing to equatorial i also have a f6.3 focal reducer at my disposal I initially wanted to get into live video astronomy but that’s a bit out of my price range so thought I’d give planetary imaging ago which I already occasionally do with a modified webcam 

I would also be interested in some close up lunar imaging and possibly joining a program to monitor Transient Lunar Phenomena 

so it’s come down  to these two cameras (ZWO ASI 224MC USB 3.0 Colour Camera or ZWO ASI 290MC USB 3.0 Colour Camera) which do you think would best suit my needs?

it would also be a bonus if I could image or live stream at least some dso’s

thanks for any help offered

Have a look here

I'd say the 224.

224c for me, I have both and the 224 just edges it, both can do some DSO stuff, so opinion will always differ between these cams?
