I'd rather see a 1.5", 5-micron form-factor CCD that can do, say, 20fps.

I won't be oversampling that much. I would sample at a much higher rate with planetary work. At around 0.8"- 0.12" per pixel. Besides Alan Friedman is capturing in one panel on his 6mp camera. I am not sure what your concerns are here. Your focal length of your scope is a bit of an enemy to you. Yes seeing can be a problem but at that sort of mag it is nothing compared to planetary imaging.
I agree about the larger sensor with 5 microns and 20fps. That will come in time I suppose, but for now I am interested in not doing mosaics anymore.
