As for happy snaps - unless you're after studio quality on every pic, a simple CWB of a white sheet in ambient light seems to work reasonably well. I thought I would need some sort of filter to achieve decent results, but this hasn't been the case for me.
All up, modding my 40D cost me $238AU - postage/insurance both ways + the Baader replacement filter.
I'm very happy I did it.
If the same dealer offers a cheap cooling mod I'll be there!!


ps...back to topic, there is a cheap narrowband option for DSLR users on the Hutech site...

Yes - I expect near perfect photos everytime , I didn't spend so much money to get otherwize.

The 40D is afterall a step above to a professional entry level camera , it is not a toy like the 400D , 450D and 1000D or those point and shoots.
