Hi Billy the camera I just had modded is a Canon 350d and I only had the filter removed.

Thanks billy looks like I will have a standard CLS for sale very soon

Hi last year I bought a CLS clip filter from modern astronomy and it have been great. I have just had my DSLR modded and noticed that they sell IR blocked and non IR blocked clip filters. Is there any way of knowing which one I have?

Thanks Dean

Thanks Blinky, I tried it on a fresh stack and it worked a treat but I think it's to late for this version because the black point is clipped.

Thanks Dean

Hi here is a stack of 162 subs of M31 from early this year.

Can anyone advise me how to improve the top left corner of the image?

Thanks Dean

I have expected to have to wait until August until I can start imaging again because of incomplete darkness during the summer months but was wondering,

Is it possible image during June and July with an unmodded DSLR or is it best to wait?

I have been looking at Astronomik EOS Clip filters and wondered if anyone else have used any of them to image during the summer months using a DSLR?
