Dude has some skills!  I couldn't have done that with any of those cameras.  I respect astrophotography, but just wish I know how to do it.

Post is where it's at with astro work.  Don't get me wrong, gear is important (semi), but nailing post is key here.

Having a good understanding of post processing and how to pull light from an image is key.  Great video.

These guys that do astrophotography really have a PHD in patience.  There is so much that goes into these sort of shots.  But I agree, it's all about the post work afterwards.  90% of peeps out there won't get a shot that looks anything like this with out some level of instruction.
