I would be worried that an 11" F2.2 astrograph will disappoint if used under light polluted Newie skies...

That said, I'd go with a small cylindrical body, one shot colour CCD Starlightxpress Trius SX26C

This would give you a highly sensitive astrograph with a 2.2deg X 1.5deg FOV at 2"/pix that can produce colour images in a single night with ease and no 4 filter processing and capture and the cylindrical body won't obstruct the light path or produce those crappy looking skewed stars that an odd shaped DSLR will do
