I'd love to put a KAF16803 or 16200 camera into my big APO... I reckon that would be the absolute best setup... There isn't a CMOS sensor to my knowledge that would provide the same specs as the 16803, and I would guarantee that with darks, the 16803 would be as clean as any of the current CMOS cameras.
I must fire up the PL16803 again soon, it hasn't collected any photons since 15 May 2021 and the last completed image with it, was way back in Feb 2021
