As I expect many of you know I have been using my own version of this for ten years now so it is good news to see this is now commercially available. I developed it primarily for supernova confirmation and classification (In 2016, the first amateur to do this) but here is a quick example of what can be done with such an instrument on faint QSO

Thanks for the "heads-up" Olivier and the great presentation from Robin.....ordered mine at the end of the Zoom meeting, and received the Alpy200 module 4 days latter! Can't wait to see how "dim" I can go with my CDK17 at F/4.5 with this!
