M42+Modded Canon
Hi All,
Well thanks for all the comments, and yes ALEX its a fantastic DS subject, I note your pictures are coming on also (looked at AD this morning) but suggest more exposure time, ANDREW- yes I did the Mod. on the Canon, but touchy, the most difficult part was removing (cutting out) the Filter from its frame, also the ribbon connectors were difficult to re-insert, PAUL sorry I wouldent be game to Mod. anyone elses Camera, but if you do the Mod. either leave out the glass that replaces the filter, or make certain you use a non-reflective glass, C.S.- yes Digital Cameras have come a long way and one can get Fantastic Colour shots of DS objects, they require more exposure time, than a cooled Camera and DF removal is really necessary, I find it good for bright objects, but marginal on faint objects, a cooled version would be ideal (a cooled 6 Mp Camera costs $10,000), DAVIDPRETORIUS- Image processing is the Magic part of it all, im still learning, however with a good exposure of a bright object (not a lot of these) you dont require much processing.
Im posting a picture taken with the same setup, before the Camera was modified, with no processing outside of DF removal, and Noiseware speck removal, the Ha sensitivity difference is quite noticeable.
cheers....Jim
