Thanks guys

I usually use unity gain with CMOS cameras (it varies from camera to camera). The noise is lower if you use unity gain. This camera is fast and you get usually 128 frames per second easily (whole chip)

Thanks James and Stu

these two scopes are not new. The Acuter 60mm F/12.5 is a great instrument. Optically it is very good and it also very cheap. The Meade 2045 is one of the first instrument I used with CCD cameras back in the 90's
