+1 get the right tool for the job.
Not that DSLR or even compacts can't be used for astrophotography if you learn how to use them effectively and get a solid processing workflow going.
I'm stuck with digital camera AP due to health problems. I may not be able to use my large scope anymore but I can still enjoy AP.
Imaging cams require different skills than a regular camera. I can only suggest you buy quality and dont be swayed by specs too much. Buy a quality lens instead of kit lenses. Be prepared to put in time to learn to use your gear.
