Removing IR Filter on D5300

[Maxrayne]

Wanting to start chasing IR data on some nebulae, and thinking of removing the IR filter on the Nikon D5300. This is my primary imaging camera atm (translation: this is the only one I have the T-ring adapter for), and looks a lot easier to do than on the Canon 550D (frankly those 3 gazillion ribbon cables on the Canon scare the sh*t out of me.) Anyone have thoughts on this? Worth doing?

That's strange, the D5300 guide I've just looked at had more ribbon cables than a 550D....... ?

Dunno, I was merely going by a tutorial on YouTube, tho tbf it wasn't the 5300. If that's the case tho, I may have to rethink which one to mess with ?
