Thanks for the input and binning the camera with the 12" appears to be valid except for the well depth of the 8300 chip as Peter has pointed out, however a lot of the galaxies I want to image are not that bright so it may not matter in a practical sense.

The main reason I mention the small wells , particularly for galaxy imaging is not for the galaxy to look nice because it will probably not saturate the chip but for the stars in the frame. Greg Bradley is using a small well chip on a 17 inch so it might not be anything to worry about, but personally I find that I enjoy the look of images from the 11000 more because most stars don't overexpose.
