If you have the time and commitment to learn then the cooled mono cameras will give the best results; otherwise you can still do quite well with a much less noisy dslr.

I started with the 600D (almost identical to the 650D) which was very noisy. I now use the Nikon D5600 which is fine for most of the year in our southern climate.

The Helix was taken recently after I modified my d5600, 15x7 minutes. The Rosette image was taken last year before I modified my camera - I'm looking forward to imaging it again with the extra Ha signal and a few more processing skills.

On those rare nights when I'm tired and the things just won't work because I've done something wrong it's nice to have less complicated gear.
