Since I'm considering looking at a new camera for strictly planetary imaging, I'd like to get some opinions and hope its ok to post in the forum. One big difference is the price, with the Firewire being about 1/3 the cost of the Lumenera. My ToUcam 740k days are numbered, and I've talked my wife into letting me get a new camera. What do you guys think? If I purchased the Firewire, I could get another, faster laptop (mine is about 4 years old, Celeron processor! ) for the total price of the Lumenera. But, if I buy a camera, I want to buy the best I can afford (about $1000.00 according to the wife)for planetary imaging. All opinions appreciated.
