Deconvolution can sharpen your images somewhat if you are up against the wall.

I found seeing to be noticable at 1500 mm but 1000 seems to be reasonably forgiving.

You don't specify mono or color camera, mono will significantly be sharper due to the bayer array averaging.

I use a mono camera, an Opticstar 145m which has a Sony ICX285AL sensor.
