Oh I agree, one was modified with a new filter and the other cooled sure but still...pretty good images huh? In my opinion Ivans M81/82 + Galactic Cirrus shot is just about the best I have seen of this scene from either CCD or DSLR and in my opinion was the best image of the 5 finalists in the Deep Space category

Hey I use a CCD and do LRGB too too remember but if I thought I could do this sort of work by just changing the filter in my DSLR...well...? no more missing colour frames due to cloud etc ...it often comes down to what we are used to as well..besides 24hrs+ of data is being touted as all the go these days even with CCD
