Does any one know if it’s also possible to use the Orion Star Shoot Guider as an imager? Seems even without cooling (like the Meade DSI’s), the 1.3mp sensor would be worth a shoot at the $250 price verses the new Meade 1.3mp DSI’s at 1,200. Anyone have any idea’s or experances?

The guider is a CMOS chip and not a CCD, so might not work as well for long exposures. It is not to be compared to the DSI III cameras, not the same thing at all.
