Hi Lauren, I've just gone through the same issue as you. My old DSLR has done its job well and living in central QLD winter temps are mild enough not to heat the sensor up so imaging is pretty good then, but as soon as that sensor heats up on a warmish night, might as well pack it in.
Cooled camera not needed in winter but in summer temps a definite yes, the problem is its always cloudy and rainy here in summer.
I ended up buying a cooled camera last year and don't regret it but it hasn't really had a lot of use yet but it does work very well on the odd clear summers night.
Cheers Rick
