Before you go spending squillions on CCD cameras, maybe start with a good cheap DSLR.
Once you have mastered imaging, and need the high resolution and sensitivity of the big guns, then look at the main line cameras.

I personally have the SXV-H9, plus a Canon 20D and now a Nikon D200 for imaging.
Im pretty happy with the results im getting with all of them, but im very impressed with the DSLR range, and now in particular the D200.

Heres an image or M8 i took with my 14" RCX and a Canon DSLR. From memory the exposure was around 3 or 4 stacked 1 minute shots.

So maybe look in that direction for now..


DOH !.. I just read you have a D70. Well, you have a GREAT, GREAT camera. Man oh man you really need to see what that camera of yours can do. You need to know that the sensor in it is whats in an SXV-M25.. So utilize it.
Mind you, you really need to rip that filter off on the CCD though.
