Update - i've taken the plunge and placed an order for the Point Grey Chameleon3 IMX264 mono, with the intention of applying it to both lunar and deep sky lucky imaging. The smaller chip size means I can use it with my existing 1.25" filters without vignetting. Data storage should also be more manageable than the alternative ZWO ASI1600MM. Read noise should be just as (if not more) favourable than the ZWO camera, and the dark frames I have seen suggest that amp glow is minimal.
Once I have received the camera I will conduct some tests of read noise and dark current vs gain and share the results here for those who are interested.
