Modding a 350D how-to

[SteveL]

Posted by 12dstring on the "other" forum (he is a member on here, but he hasnt posted anything), an extremely useful "pictures and text" explaination of how to mod the 350D with a Baader IR cut filter to increase H-Alpha and S-II response

http://www.12dstring.me.uk/350dmod.htm

I`m tempted.... I just emailed Nicki @ DHinds about availability of the replacement filters.

Shudder....

Reminds me of my time fixing camcorders at work...

Good luck if you have a bash Steve

Anybody got a 350D that they want me to ruin for free?

That looks a lot too complicated for me to attempt it.

Hi all,

Thanks for the adding the link Steve, it's not as hard as it looks, honest

I guess I need to start posting more here then

Welcome to SGL mate.

Nice set of instructions, I can hear the mass cracking open

of 350D's from here

I thought about a DIY approach to filter replacement and then decided to let Andy ( Astronomiser) take all the risks
