Hi Avi, modded DSLRs come up quite often in the used gear forum
here in IIS.

Hi Avi,
I have done a couple of mods myself. The 1100D is very easy to modify. Others on this forum have a lot more experience than I but I am happy to help you out if you want. A second hand 1100D is a good choice as they are quite cheap and has good pixel size and low noise at high ISOs (relatively speaking of course).

Camera Clinic in Melbourne does it. it is reasonably exy though unless you were planning on doing it yourself I would probably cut to the chase and purchase a cooled & spectrum modified dslr from CDS in korea.

i'd go the cds-600d - they used to have one based off the 1100d but have stopped production of it recently.
