In January 2012 I finally succumbed to the temptation of a large chip anti-blooming monochrome camera and purchased the excellent QSI 683 wsg camera complete with Starlight Xpress Active Optics unit (because the QSI has it's own off-axis unit, only the main body was required).

Here it is with its substantial built in 8-way filter wheel, Starlight Xpress Lodestar guide camera fitted to the off-axis port, and the Active Optics unit. The Astrophysics CCDT67 reducer is fitted between the AO unit and the camera to obtain the correct back focus distance for the reducer. Easily removed for prime focal length imaging - everything simply screws together.
