I think that DSLRs already are becoming better for AP, [intentionally or otherwise]. Firstly, we now have "Live View" on most later models. ISO max was traditionally 1600
on most earlier models, but now the sky's the limit. We now have noise
reduction modes which apart from being quite effective, sometimes can
eliminate the need for separate darks. We now have swivelling LCD
screens on many models, which is a boon. Most models have HD video
capability, which works quite well for lunar and planetary. Binning is
not a significant omission, as this is offered in many image processing
packages, and in any case the same result is achieved by reducing
the linear size of an image. DSLRs are frequently decried by AP
purists, but there are a few clever, talented, and very committed
individuals out there producing stunning work with DSLRs that is
virtually indistinguishable from mono CCD LRGB work.
