Looking at various zwo cameras for autoguider and maybe imaging.
To autoguide 152mm F8 - 1200mm. Could use 65mm by 400mm guide scope I have.
So choices;
120mm , cheap on sale $200; maybe not so sensitive enough or wide enough?
290mm mini, $300, 2.0, effectively guides scope only which is primary mission?
290mm regular size, $400, 3.0, more sensitive but?
178mm, $400 same as 290 price, but wider View and good camera too.
178mc, $360 (less than mm), bit less sensitive, but ONC.
So what is best solution? Favouring 178mm, but no on sale $50 off yet.
178mm and 290mm same price, which is best and why?
290mm mini ok for guider at 2.0, but not so much as camera
Would 178mc be too much less sensitive or pixel spread Bayer Matrix not as narrow for tight guiding as 'mm?
Could go to other brand, but two seems rugged and well respected.
Am I missing any other better model zwo?
Comments welcome.
