dslr chip size???

DSLR all the way baby, unless you want to fork out 4000 pounds for an equally sized CCD chip.
The idea thing would be to get a modified one... Like one of these JTW Ultimate Deep Cooled Canon cameras... However, they cost like more than twice your budget. But even an un-modded Canon EOS camera will give you great results. They will have more noise than a CCD picture, but they will be a hell of allot larger... And your FOV will in comparison to your current camera be - for the lack of a better term: clinically insane.
I never went the CCD route, and I havent regretted it. I grew out of my unmodded Nikon D3100 DSLR pretty quick though, so I've ordered the camera I mentioned above, only with the 600D instead of the 1100D. But if I were you, I would totally go for that Canon... Upside is, if you've got nimble fingers - you can mod it yourself. There are plenty of DIY tutorials on YouTube and such. If not - you can allways send it in to some modifying service, and get it done at an extra price. Hell, when economy permits, you could even turn it into a Ultimate Deep Cooled one. I know they provide that service...
Anyhow... DSLR baby... all the way. Although you should expect naysayers telling you to stick to those itsy bitsy teeny tiny CCD chips...
