450D (or rebel xsi) enquiry

Hi - just joined.
I was given this site because I have an interest in astrophograhy and was also given to understand that the Canon DSLR is a good option for this purpose.   I have a 450D (Rebel XSi) but I do not recognise it on the list of CHDK releases.  Secondly I see a Finnish reference to astrophotograhy (at least I think that is the topic from what appears on the webpage) and wonder if there is an English equivalent.  Does the site cater for this type of work -  seems that Canon are reputed to have some rather "clever" technology built in for this purpose that maybe some of the other brands do not.

I apologise for asking something that may be so basic and I am completely missing it.    Hoping someone can give me the clues.   

Midman

Hello & welcome, Midman !

I have a 450D (Rebel XSi) but I do not recognise it on the list of CHDK releases.
CHDK is only available for Canon Powershot cameras (supported cameras), not for the DSLR's.

There are also hacks available for some DSLR's: -> DSLR CHDK development
