One point though is the SBIG uses a Kodak sensor. How do these compare to the Sony SuperHAD's?? Is there a major benefit over one or the other?

....E class I think
Unfortunately Sony don't release absolute QE data, so it's difficult to compare the two sensors. While the KAF is has a higher noise floor, this becomes moot with highly regulated chamber temperatures, using an equivalent dark frame subtraction etc. will easily clean up any noise.
The KAF11002 is also quite a large sensor...most are APS sized or smaller...so you will cover quite a bit more sky with a single exposure.
BTW, even if I wasn't associated with SBIG I'd still be using their cameras as like, Selly's they simply work.
