Comment by Philip A Cruden on April 26, 2011 at 10:11pm: Hey Spike no DSLR yet I am working on it though, crazy, I have been doing Photography since grade 4, relied on film up until 2004 when I got my Sony F-828 over 30,000 photos and still works great but not so much for astrophotography, great with stars and awesome with the moon but not with deep space and it works well with targets like Neptune and Uranus. I am in the market to get a DSLR but still not sure if CCD is they way to go but that is for another discussion
