go out and buy a bigger and more capable mount, ie eq6 pro, extend your sub times to 6-8 minutes, your current camera will have far more capabilities if you can do that. i think mono is still a little way off for you, keep in mind Fred (bassnut ) has been doing it for a long time owns a buch of scopes (including GRAS) and has honed his skills .

have a look through the forums and see who uses what and just what they are capable of equipment wise.

buying a mono camera at the moment would be like putting a big block v8 into a model T ford.... update the chassis(mount) first.

the mantra in imaging is MOUNT MOUNT MOUNT, then scope and camera

hope this helps
