Nice simple guide camera that you can also use for planetary imaging.
I really like that this little guide camera has built-in USB-C. That makes it much easier to get a live feed through the camera when I don't want to fire up a session of PHD or TheSky (or if I'm actively using them for guiding).
The ST4 auto-guide port works great and it was immediately recognized by my Meade mount.
This camera comes with a couple of tube extensions and a nice travel-stop ring so that once you get your focus, you can take the camera out to look directly through the telescope and then quickly return it to the same focus depth.
