An Alternative way to Mod your DSLR (no glass removed)

G'day everyone,

I did some experimenting yesterday to see if I could remove the offending IR cut coating from the filter assembly on my sensor, without having to remove the glass and muck up focus etc.

It seems that it IR cut coating is on the front surface of the filter assembly and can easily be polished off with a dremel and some metal polish, without harming the glass in any way (no clouding, scratches, etc)

I thought is might be of interest to anyone who wants to mod their camera but doesn't want to lose lens focussing ability (and who doesn't what to fork out money on a replacement filter)

Cheers
Jo
