Hi Robert,

Thanks!, that is a good question, I think I would prefer the faster frame rates to help defeat the seeing, we can always use a more powerful barlow to increase the image scale. I wish the Infinity 2-1 could image at faster than 30fps (even when using a small window with ROI I can only get about 35fps) the Infinity has some real advantages though.

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

I wonder what the trade off would be between imaging @ higher frame rates with the LU075 compared with larger image scale with the Infinity (I'm assuming the scale is also the result of the Infinity's chip size in addition to the 18").

Hi Robert,

Thanks, the native focal ratio of my scope is F/4.3 (very fast).

Thanks,
