I totally agree with this, however, some Canon DSLRs have the centrecrop video mode (I think the 60D might have it) where it does a 640x480 video from just the pixels in the centre of the sensor. This is actually not too bad for basic planetary imaging. If you already have the camera you can get reasonable results without buying anything new... although you better get used to buying stuff if you want to get into astrophotography...
