Greg, Many thanks for the additional information!
This discussion is reminding me just why I decided initially on the KAF8300 CCD.....it's just about the correct size that I can get away without a flattener on my TEC140 for one thing, and it seems to offer performance for a reasonable cost. I know the pixel size is not optimal and the well depth is shallow, however. Is it a mistake to think that any of these shortcomings can be addressed by binning 2x2 with the KAF8300? I don't think well depth is changed by binning, but at 2x2 I'd be at 2.24 arcsec/pixel.
