Holy Moly Phil - that's awesome and very interesting!!
Strange that the Central DS 40D has a better thermal signature with the cooling off!!
I'm currently imaging the SMC in Ha, iso1600 at an ambient temp of around 18 degrees C.
The noise is unbearable!! This cooled DSLR route is looking very attractive - pennies will need to be saved I reckon!
