Lighten up folks. We choose to spend our discretionary money on what we choose. I am sure there are millions of people with point and shoot cameras who think we are all mad or worse, being very extravagant at even having a bottom end DSLR.

I think that renting a high end imaging setup is the way of the future. The more services available the better. I have spent a lot of time and effort imaging from my light polluted site and have now almost reached the theoretical limit by practice and learning from my mistakes..

Narrow band imaging for faint nebular detail and in combination with full colour data will keep me occupied for a while.

When my abilities are better than my equipment I will move in this direction. I don't advise anyone to start at remote imaging without doing the apprenticeship first.
