As the next owner of Dan's camera I too can vouch for the SBIG 8300c. Nice camera and easy to use, albiet somewhat noisy.

It suffered a PCB board failure though which required a trip back to the factory in the USA, which took about 2-3 months. The camera was around 3 yrs old by then.

I eventually sold it and moved to mono, (but opted for QSI as it offered better value for money imo).

The new model 8300c has significantly better cooling than the old one, so my noise concerns should be resolved now.
