My first camera is/was a Microsoft Lifecam HD. Works with a few modifications in a big dob surprisingly well. The "real" camera is the older version of this camera that I got for $200 on a whim. Those SBIG cameras are amazing, and I'd like to get one, but at a starting price of $2K, then you need a filter wheel, then a decent astrograph to drive the thing I have to stick with what I got for now and learn the processing and setup.

I may go back to that Jupiter and process it with drizzling to make it a bit larger. The raw .tiff is 40mb and when you enlarge it you can really see some detail.
