My imaging camera is the QSI583WSG. This is the model with the built in Off Axis Guider (OAG).

I use the Orion StarShoot Autoguider (SSAG) as the guide camera. When initially installed the SSAG on the QSI I was unable to get focus. A quick email to QSI resulted in a focusing disk being sent which is installed between the guide camera and pick-of prism in the QSI.

previous camera

My first Digital SLR for Astro use was a Canon 1000D which
I had modified by Astronomiser for improved red sensitivity.

I found this camera to be excellent for Star Clusters and perfected a technique for correcting the star colours using the eXcalibrator programme.

My first published image (Double Cluster) was taken with this camera.
