QHY 268C

Hi Everyone. Been using a Altair 269c Hypercam for a while now and love it but wanted a second camera so I didn't have to keep breaking down setups and messing around with backspacing etc. So I have got my hands on the QHY268c and its a beast of a camera. Been very impressed with it so far. It has 3 different shooting modes - Photographic, High Gain, Extended Full Well. Been having a play with it and building dark frame libraries. Anyone else have one?

Haven't got one but would love to see what you can do with it. Hope you get plenty of clear skies to use it soon.

Not yet, but I have one on my to-buy list, together with the mono version when it's released. Been on the Astrograph site as I've bought a load of kit from them, in excess of £20k I think.

As for Mark, I too will be interested in the results.

The QHY 600 is a bit too rich for me unfortunately.

This is 5 x 300 secs stacked, no calibration frames at all, its a bit noisy as I'm learning best noise settings but if this is what it can do with just 5 images then I'm a happy boy!
