Short subs, for similar cost to the nikon camera -> Altair Hypercam 183C, its cooled, its full spectrum, it has a backlit sensor, its sensitivity allows unguided 30secs easily.
Astrobackyard has rave reviews, the pics on astrobin are great.

I had not thought of such an approach.
It will do up to 1000 seconds in "trigger mode" ...cooling is a fan.
Less complicated than narrow band.
I expect zwo may have a similar camera but maybe peltie cooled.
Sure something to think about...better than $4500 for a nikon "astronomy" camera...but it is 36 meg I think.
