I would wait if I were you, it will be a massive improvement not just because of the FOV, the 5.89um pixels will suit the E180 far far better than the 3.76um pixels it currently has. This should sharpen the whole image up in our opinion as its more in line with the telescopes own spot size.
PS I have asked Mike to re-input the Pipe job taking the new sensor into account as it will need far fewer panels LOL
It would be a massive help for us now we are doing this with the new camera if we just let the pier finish the work that's in there and then add all the new jobs after the camera swap, please let me know if you find this acceptable ?

Hi Steve,
OK I´ll wait for the new camera to do the elephant trunk job then.
Pipe panorama job with less images sounds good as well.
Just in case Pier 5 runs out of jobs BEFORE the new camera is installed: I put in a job for NGC 2237 which still fits the old camera perfectly. That object would not profit too much from the new camera setup I suppose.
