Thanks, I'll use what I have. I looked at the SL2, A6000, A6300 and 80D up at Best Buy this morning. Really thought about getting the 80D (999.99, body only) but then I realized that I've been trying to justify another camera and I really can't. I've spent enough already. Plus, from what I've read, full frame is better for astrophotography anyway.
Again, thanks
Full frame is nice for astrophotography but it creates large files and in most cases you'll be shooting 30-50 subs to align and stack; a whole lot of space and processing power required. Also, a full frame sensor pushes lens/telescopes to the max, i.e.: edge effects can be very significant in astrophotography! I've found it is normally best to go with a smaller sensor and use the sweet spot of lens/telescopes. APS-C, 4/3 and smaller sensors work very well.
It all depends on what type of astro/nightscape photography you wish to tackle...
