Advice on a camera for a celestron 8" sct on avx mount.

[andy fearn]

Hi,  I am thinking of purchasing a camera for my 8" sct. Have been looking at ZWO ASI 183GT COOLED MONO or ZWO ASI 1600 MM PRO WITH MINI FILTER WHEEL. Has anybody used the 183GT .

Any advice would be greatfully received.

Look at you image scale, with the 183 it will be at .39.. with the 1600 it's slightly better at .61.. this is if you're using a .63 reducer.. can the avx guide at that? I'm not so sure it can...

Imaging at that scale with a sct is tough ,really tough.. do some thorough research before you jump in  but as I see this morning it can be really rewarding
