As far as MP is concerned I dont think 8 (350D), 10 (400D) or 12 (450D) make a great deal of difference, any of these cameras would be suitable.

As far as an astrocamera bargain is concerned though I dont think you could go past a cheap modded 350D.

Cheers

One important difference with these cameras is that from the 40D on, the amp is turned off during exposure resulting in no amp glow to remove with dark frames.
