i'm using a canon 1000D modified,  in DSS raw /fits settings what setting do i need to choose ? if i choose Digital rebel do i need to alter anything else bearing in mind camera is astro modified .

As most Canon DSLR only produce RAW(CR2) files you dont have a choice. "Modified" ? Lens removal or something else?. Lens removal should only produce CR2(RAW) files for DSS.

BUT some software reads Canon CR2 and produces FITS Debayered (Col or Mono) - e.g CCDCiel and Indi etc can produce FITS (hey convert CR2) in which case its FITS.  DSS itself produces FITS or TIFF.

If you have changed the firmware in the Canon to some of the available version they may produce FITS but I cant help you there - I use only CR2 or Software converted FITS files.
