...for me at least.

As it was clear last night, I put the camera out to see whether I
could pick up any meteors. After 31x30s images, with cloud looming in
the west, I gave up and swiched to other things. Typically, with such
a lazy attitude, a meteor (not seen visually) had very kindly obliged!
It's at the bottom of the frame for those who don't normally scroll

I recall that last season you imaged a fair amount with the 300D but your
more recent images have been captured with the 10D.

I suspect a 10D will always be beyond my financial reach but I aim to buy
something like a 300D ( maybe the 350D) so how do the two cameras compare
for astrophotography, do you use the same processing methods and does the
10D have less noise?

I can answer that question easily Darren - it's not me you're thinking
of ;-) I've never had a 300D!

In answer to your question though, the 300D should perform as the 10D.
