Milesy303 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Hi all. I’m currently looking at both sensors to use with my GT81 scope for a few months but want to go to a longer focal length for after the summer. With the 269 I’ll be over sampled when I go to the longer focal length but there is no amp glow to deal with. The 294 seems an older technology but maybe bet better suited to upgrading after the summer ? To be used under "uk seeing" which I think might be "ok" My head hurts with all the sampling and seeing.

Chris I wouldn't concern myself too much about ampglow, it's easily removed with calibration frames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the green colour cast that you will see in your images if you go for the colour version, at least from my experience with the 294c, as this is easily removed with the Hasta la Vista Green (HLVG) free plug in for Photoshop.
