Astro Modified Canon 450D

Hi.

I have a professionally modified Canon 450D and accessories for sale.

This DSLR is in excellent condition for its age. Plugged in to APT, it shows a shutter count of only 5610.

The camera was sent away to Hong Kong for the Baader BCF filter replacement. This is a UV/IR cut filter, but which allows 97% of H-alpha to pass through to the sensor. The mod was carried out by Peter Tan at Lee Man Ho in Hong Kong. With return shipping, the mod alone cost me around $300AUS.

This camera performs really well on most astro targets, particularly large nebula such as Orion and Carina etc

It can also still be used for regular, everyday photography and works as normal with lenses.

I'll also include two batteries, the charger, and a Canon BG-E5 battery grip, as well as a Canon AC power adapter for those long imaging nights when you don't want to run out of power in the field!

The whole lot....$480.

This a great little camera for anyone looking to get in to DSLR astro photography.

All questions via PM, please
