Thanks Richard. Yes, I hope that one of the new cameras will provide better resolution by using short subs. Bit of an issue with such dim targets though - there will still be a need for moderately long subs to keep even 1 electron read noise under control. I am going to do some experiments soon to see just what resolution advantage is available from short and very short subs.
