First CCD Camera advice?

I think I have raised this question before but not followed up on it for various reasons, but with the current sale on Atik cameras I am revisiting it. I would like to try out CCD imaging (mono/narrowband) and would like some advice on a basic camera suitable for my scopes, preferably Atik if possible. This is for DSO imaging. My current Canon DSLR (modified) has 5.19 pixels but of course is OSC, and on my scopes (10" imaging newt (1200 fl) and MN190 Mak-Newt (1000 fl)) give a ratio of 0.86/pixel and 1.03/pixel respectively. Would like to keep the cost below $2k for this first CCD camera if I could. Options?
