At less than a half an arc second per pixel I would have thought you would be better off using the scope you have with a camera with larger pixels. Putting a 11000 chip on your 10 inch RC gives around 1 arc second per pixel, someones going to say you can just bin the 8300 but with its shallow wells I don't think that's a good option, and of course you can bin the 11000 for 2 arc second per pixel.

At 2 arc seconds per pixel you gather light 16 times as fast ( ideally) as the same scope with your 8300 on it, and I doubt you will lose much resolution because of your seeing.
