A lot of you talk of modding your dslr's. What does this involve?

just had my canon Eos done by "astronomiser"... As per the earlier reply from scoobee. Since when it has been raining, so am itching to have a go.

The process is simple, you pay the man his money (about 150) and send him the camera by special delivery ( costs about 7.50 for this, including insurance). He removes the filter, and sends you back the camera.

The camera still works in daylight but everything comes out with a lot more red in it because the long wavelengths are now getting to the sensor - which is what you want to pick up the light from hydrogen in nebulae.

At least that's the theory, and if I get a clear sky I'll prove it...
