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

True - but in my opinion it's all about location.
I wish we had a location like the Atacama desert in Chile
which is at high altitude & low humidity.
A DSLR up there would beat any CCD from an Australian site.
