Which DSLR

Hi all.

Well...inevitably it leads to this - deep sky imaging!!!

Or at least, the contemplation of said pursit.

Up until now I have restricted my imaging to the local celestial neighbourhood ie planets, but I'm getting the urge to go deeper.

To that end, I'm wondering what recommendations the learned and wise folk here at IIS might have with regard to a camera???

My budget is flexible, within reason. I know 'within reason' is a subjective term...but take it as given that I'm not prepared to spend many thousands of dollars at this stage on a pursuit which I'm not certain I'll enjoy or stick with.

Having said that, I'm also aware there's a danger of going 'cheap', only to be hamstrung and frustrated by deficient gear which will ultimately see me giving the caper away.

So, what do you recommend? Thanks in advance for your suggestions and feedback.
