After playing with various Canons almost exclusively for Astrophotography over the past 6 years it has come to my attention that the present load, and I empahsize Load, of Canons are not worth the photons they collect when it comes to AP. I'm not talking about file formats, though its true they can be worked around (but shouldn't have to) and while Tiffs are acceptable they are not the astronomy standard, the noise from this bunch is unacceptable for astrophotography. My recommendation for anyone that wants to get into OSC imaging and can not get hold of one of the earlier models is to get a dedicated OSC camera and start from there.
