Camera modification for astro imaging Updated on:  10 Aug 2020

Original internal low pass filter (LPF) blocks about 75% of H-Alpha light, and so this filter needs to be removed such that more H-Alpha light can be captured.

Types of modification:

1. LPF removed and replaced with Baader ACF/BCF filter, keeping front dust removal filter 

2. LPF removed, keeping front dust removal filter 

3. Both LPF and front dust removal filters removed (full spectrum), external UV/IR block filter required

   (Due to CMOS adjustment limit, infinity focus MAY NOT be obtained for using camera lens)

4. LPF removed and replaced with Baader ACF/BCF filter, front dust removal filter also removed

** Some cameras may not have separated dust removal filter, so need to use modification option #4
