Title: What guide camera do you use?
Post by: Fay on Jan 14, 2015, 21:37:59
Being that i have blown the main board on my Hitec hub, i think and hope, it is due to the cable of the SX M7. apparently the only cause for this board blowing is something is plugged in with a reverse polarity.

Please can you suggest a good guide camera as I cant use this camera any more for guiding?  i have got my DMK 21Au04, but not sure if it is sensitive enough

I use a QHY5L-II mono and it works just fine, small, sensitive and no funny cables, only the usual rubbish USB type.

I've E mailed Fay and am lending her a QHY5 to see if she likes it.
