gary1968 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Howdy, I am looking at buying a modded dslr from cheap astro photography. They have a modded 1000d and a modded 450d.I am gonna buy one or other, which would be best? They will see only astro use one either my star adventurer with a canon lens or on my ed80 on jy big mount.Advice appreciated. Gaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkySurfer Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Hi,The 450 D is a slightly older model, but slightly better spec, 10.1 megapixel,for the 1000D v 12.1 for the 450D, I have the 450D and a1000D so I can honestly say in my opinion, and it is only my opinion, go for the one you can afford as even though the 450D has higher res, the 1000D has better noise reduction in the images, so pros and cons for each, but if they were both the same price I would have the 1000D, as the extra resolution is not really needed.Hope that helps and makes sense, but it is only my opinionRegardsSS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary1968 Posted November 2, 2014 Author Share Posted November 2, 2014 Cheers for that. The 450 is actually £50 more so based on your advice its a no brainer. Gaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkySurfer Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 I agreeThe extra 2 mega pixel ain't really gonna make much difference, but hold on and see what others have got to say.SS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattJenko Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I think it will be pretty close and while I have the 450D and think it is great, I think £50 is £50 and reckon I would be very happy with the 1000D and change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary1968 Posted November 5, 2014 Author Share Posted November 5, 2014 Turns out the 1000d is no longer available so they offered me the 450d at the same price as the 1000d, result! Just gotta be patient and wait on it coming.Sent from my Vodafone Smart 4 turbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
