Where to get a Canon EOS R modified?

[UKRoman]

Hi All,

Would anyone know where I could get a Canon EOS R modified? I’m looking to get it modified for additional Ha sensitivity but with the option for daytime photography using a custom white balance or OWB clip-in filter?

Thanks

Not familiar with the camera but try Juan from cheapastrophotography

Apologies for the delay in replying. I did try emailing Juan but haven’t had any response.

He doesn't tend to work over the holiday period, he usually goes back over to Spain to see his family,
not sure if he has this time due to current situation, 
You might have to wait until holiday period is over for him to get back to you.

Have you tried or had a look here http://www.astronomiser.co.uk

Yeah I’m guessing the Christmas holidays might slow down any response. 
 

I emailed Andy from Astronomiser, who got back to me quickly. Unfortunately he said that he doesn’t convert mirrorless cameras yet, only DSLRs. 
 

I did have a Canon 800D camera modified by Baader in Germany earlier in the year. They did a fantastic job. But they’ve removed the UK from their website as a country that they provide direct services too, presumably because of Brexit. In any case they only modify APSC cameras. 
 

The other company I’ve spotted is JTW Astronomy in Holland. I’ve not approached them yet as they seem to get mixed reviews in terms of the amount of time they take to do the work. Though most people seem happy with the work they eventually do. 
 

I’ll leave it a week or two to see if Juan replies to my enquiry. 
 

Thanks for your suggestions.
