Hi All, I haven't done the mathematics to see how the overall physical chip sizes of the LPI and DSI compare, but I hope that they are comparable. I've ...
Hi All, I had better clear up some misunderstanding that some people appear to be having. The ad for Meade's DSI says: "The output of the Deep Sky Imager is ...
Hi All, When I put the earlier message together, I didn't have the necessary data, which I have now found in the autostarsuite yahoogroup files. From what has ...
The newer Starlight Xpress cameras are compatible with 1.1 but are much faster with 2.0...they are downwards compatible. I certainly don't know if the Meade's...
A requirement of a high-speed USB 2.0 device is that it initially operates at USB 1.1 full-speed, until it is told by the operating system that it is valid to...

I've just posted a comparison table (pdf) listing the characteristics of the SAC Imaging SAC 7 (uncooled), the Meade DSI and the Meade LPI imagers. The DSI...
Hi Bill, ... Are you sure about the actual CCD chip in the LPI? In the files section of the autostarsuite yahoogroup another CCD chip is suggested for what is...
Hi Pete, ... Meade says that they should have the DSI out next month in the US. ... Yes. Dr Clay has done testing of all sorts of focal reducers, including the...
Bill, I am not absolutely certain of the chip used in the Meade LPI. We are not certain about the chip used in the Meade DSI, but we both have confidence in...
Just got my copy of the Oct Sky and Telescope. Mead does indeed have 2 full pages for the DSI. No new info. One page is the letter from The CEO and the other...
I have an LX200GPS 14" and a wonderful ETX-125. The DSI looks like just the thing I've been waiting for to introduce me to CCD astrophotography. Will the DSI...
The DSI is not scope dependent and will work fine with either one. The FOV on the 125 will probably be a bit wider than the stock 14 but then again, a good...
Hello to all. I can't hardly wait to get this imager. I've been considering the SAC7 or SAC8 for a while, but the sample photos from meade look very...
I wonder if meade will make the DSI drivers open or propriatary like the LPI ? It would be nice to be able to use the DSI in CCD Soft K3CCDtools etc. and have...
Hello all. Rec'd my October S&T a couple of days ago and began hitting the web for more info. Very excited by what I've seen, and given all the buzz here I...
Hi All, I was speaking to an astronomical dealer who is going a trade show in Cologne, Germany starting on September 28, 2004 and according to information from...
Hi All, I am a new member to the group and just wanted to say hi and that I am very excited about the group and of course the new Meade_DSI. I have been a...

I posted this before but it never showed up. When I preordered the DSI I was told it would not autoguide. I was told to use the LPI to autoguide and image...
Hi Paul, ... This backs up my earlier concerns about the amount of data to be transferred through the USB and indicates that it is only a USB 1.1 system which...
Al, Welcome to the group. Looking forward the DSI also. Don Waid ... From: Al To: Meade_DSI@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, August 21, 2004 3:48 PM Subject:...
Hi Paul, ... A pity as this would have solved having to autoguide. I now don't know what to think about the data transfer concerns that I raised earlier and...
Hi All, With regard to what I wrote earlier, I note that in Cologne, Germany between 28 September and 3 October 2004 there is the biennial Photokina trade show...
