Malcolm, glad you posted some webcam comparisons there. Your shots are really coming up fantastic with very good detail in the lower contrast areas which I haven't got there yet.

I'm getting up to 16FPS on the 40D (1024x680) giving me for eg 1min 35sec with 1623 frames with the liveview AVI recording (based on the recording time and what Registax is telling me it's loaded). I don't know if there is that much difference to the physical sensor between the 40D and 450D. I know the 40D is certainly one of the faster DLSR units but I would have thought liveview would have been similar between the two.

Hooked on Jupiter though for now!! and the weather forecast for the southwest is looking great for late this week. Planning a real big night on Friday but my 40D starts to really suffer from thermal noise above 15 degc.
