Timely post. I started imaging 2006 and stopped 2011 for that reason you say. I did mono as osc was limited back then. I started again 2021. So a 10 year hiatus. Came back to a much more advanced hobby with cmos over ccd and osc so advanced. I ditched mono and happily enjoyed osc. But only in the last month I have switched back to mono. Why? Because I reached a limit with OSC and started to feel that slump a little. I knew I needed the challenge so it was an aperture increase a chip size increase, or mono. I chose mono. Are the images better? Not really. Is the challenge greater? Yes. My thing is this.. enjoy the journey... go slow... don't skip steps... squeeze the most out your gear... then upgrade. That way you enjoy the challenge.
Nice to hear and very good advice, well said…thanks 👍🏻
