thanks for the info H.

it is encouraging that the mainstream manufacturers are finally putting some large pixels into their products - eventually someone will produce a low cost mono version of one of them and that will be the one to get for astro. 19 microns would suit a scope of about 5m fl, so it would be well matched to a 20+ inch catadioptric - or maybe even a 1m Newtonian (a 19 micron mono cam on a 1m f5 m would be able to image an average galaxy in about half an hour - maybe something to start saving for!).
