The CCD version  blocks IR- which may be needed if you have a modified DSLR(although not if you’ve got the Baader modifies option from CheapAstrophotography).

 

I’m not sure if that means you can’t use it with an unmodified camera- but you certInly wouldn’t need it. If you’ve got no plans o get a modded camera- stick with the CLS, if you think you may be getting a modded cam, then I’d probably hang on and get the CLS-CCD with the modded camera.

I'm not going to modify the camera as I use it for daytime use aswell, do you think my unmodified dslr and the CLS filter will be a good enough setup for most deep sky objects such as galaxy's and nebulae? 

Hi all, im in a decisive battle at the moment, I have a canon 1200d unmodified dslr which I have been using for my short experience at astrophotography, I want to go 1 step further and get a light pollution filter to filter out my blinding bortal 7-8 night skies. I have been researching the Astronomik CLS clip filter, but I have also come across the CCD version of that which is best for modified dslr's. What I'm thinking is, is getting the standard CLS filter worth it?, because my DSLR is unmodified and I don't want to get a filter for my camera to find my DSLR is not capable at basic astrophotography. Thoughts?? 

Thanks, Arran
