QHY9 Colour or not

[Psychobilly]

With all these 8300 based camera coming out ... I'm planning on waiting a while and keeping an eye on the forum threads on them leave the early adopters go through any pain...

One thing else to bear in mind with OSC... You do not have to worry about not getting all your L & colour data crammed into one night (if you are not permanently mounted) - you get all in every shot.

If you have to setup each night, then re-aligning the camera to get roughly the same rotation can be a real pain with filters, as well as possibly not getting one of the channels. This is not a problem with an obsy setup though, but could be a consideration when choosing between the two types of chip.

Just trying to keep the discussion even

yes one of my worries as well. OSC would solve alot of these problems.

Wondering about the new Atik CCD
