Imagingsource firewire camerasPosted By Dennis Kung |
Hi All.
I currently own a unmodified ToUCam and have done some Mars imaging during last year's opposition.
Now I am considering the Imagingsource firewire camera, specifically the monochrome 640x480 models. I've seen great images from some of the members using these camera. I would like to get some more opinions before I commit the purchase. As I've heard these cameras having lower noise than the ToUCam, how is the sensitivity compared to the ToUCAm? Is it possible or has any attempt be made to modify it for long exposure?
Thanks!
Dennis
