We don't disagree here. I started this thread more about DSLRs for daytime imaging rather than astro. Mainly in response to the often heavy postings on other parts of the net that large megapixel DSLRs are no good and that somehow you are an idiot if you want a high megapixel DSLR. So that really was what I wanted to discuss not CMOS versus CCD for astrowork which is clearly CCD dominated at this point in time. The benefits or problems associated with high megapixel DSLRs.
Although I am curious as to whether a KAI29050 with its 35mm sized sensor could be a good match for faster optics. Someone has to try one out. 5.5 micron pixels and similar performance to KAI11002. Could be a good match for an AP RHA!
