hey mate, im not sure about the sony cam, i think the reason why the canons are used is due to the amp glow that comes out in astro images (long exposures it heats up causing thermal noise). I looked though the specs and it should work, the only thing you need to be 100% sure about is if the camera will accept PC control as this makes life 1000% easier when framing and focusing!

What telescope/mount setup do you have because this can be a big factor in what camera you should pick
