CAMERA:
I bought my very well used Canon 5d mark ii second hand very cheaply but if I had a bit more cash I would buy a Canon 6D because it is more sensitive and has lower noise than the canon 5d mark ii. I saw them going for £300 on ebay just before Christmas.
In order to get the best out of the camera you need to remove the infra-red blocking filter which sits in front of the sensor. You can do it yourself but it is a risk (and more modern cameras are much more tricky to modify). I recommend Andy Ellis at Astronomiser to do this mod professionally. Andy also cleans the sensor as part of the service: astronomiser.co.uk
