Can the type of telescope or f ratio contribute to the difference in quality of the final image? I only ask because I use an SCT, which I've heard to be considered 'slow'.
What type of telescope did you use for that image?

Hi Evan, the 1100d and 600d might be of similar vintage but have different sensors. I also have a later model 1300d but this is far more noisy than the 1100d so I stick with the 1100d.
I use a 10" f4.8 newt, capture times might be lower but noise is noise and in the end the sensor with the least noise wins.
