Say, maybe a Canon 1000D? Or, maybe a 2nd hand 350D. You can shoot with them as is, or pay a few hundred dollars to get them modded - which will make them far more sensitive to Red areas of the spectrum.

Dedicated CCD cameras maybe down the track, I'd really recommend from everything I've read and seen to start off with a DSLR first before investing too heavily.

excellent post.

I had this choice last week, and bought a Canon 1000D twin lens kit and havent looked back, mine was $870 from Dick Smiths, in truth its not as good as the 450D, and it feels a little cheaper, and its lighter because of it (450g) but its an excellent place to start off
