IMX571 Colour Camera - Stock... supply... pain

[GeordieStew]

Good morning.

Trying to buy an IMX571 based colour camera before Thurs 26th Sept.

Altair 26C out of stock. - £1199

Touptek ATR3CMOS26000 too slow to arrive. - £1240

Player One Poseidon-C too slow to arrive - £1500

ZWO 2600MC-Pro is available - £1599

ZWO 2600MC-DUO would probably look to buy the 2600MC-DUO for another £400 - £1999.

ASI2600MC AIR - £2149

What other options are there that may be available? I'd go used if I could. Colour is probably a short term fix anyway... but spending another £500 on a camera and £1000 on filter gubbins is probably a step too far right now.

 

Thank you in advance!

Balls. Just seen this. Managed to source a Touptek. Kinda gutted as would rather have had yours!

 

All sorted. Nothing to see here. But buy the camera from Stuart!

Yes. Been assured it'll be here for Wednesday. Why?

Just wondered what UK company you used for Touptek..?

Hmm. You didn't look at Altair?

I did. But no stock from Altair until maybe the end of this week... and I didn't feel particularly confident. They have a big backlog.
