For now I'll be sticking with DSLR cause the alternative is that I'll never be able to afford a decent car, let alone kids. I think that's a fairly powerful argument.

If you see Scotts images - down the page -
he does so well with a DSLR but he uses an ONAG for guiding
& he takes mega data - usually 100 subframes - sometimes 300 subframes!
He's also a wizard at processing & even has his own video tutorials.

Could you pick up a 2nd hand CCD camera on Astromart for half price?
