Hi Chelle, I used one before moving up to cooled mono ccd's and found it to be a good performer most of the time. It's flip out screen is great for landscapes and when attached to a scope, especially when pointing to zenith!
I found it to be quite noisy when using it for deep space photography, which admittedly was probably the result of using it mid summer with internal temps reaching 35°c plus.
Hope that helps :-)
