Hey Ryan
Thanks for the note; I don't mind cropping to be honest. My current 'scope (below) doesn't have the biggest imaging circle and I've recently added a flattener to it so it'll probably be worse!
At some point this or next year I'll be updating the 'scope and camera anyway, but I'd like to have a second camera for secondary targets using my camera lenses.

They must have done a good job, as the camera still works well.
I had the full spectrum modification done as I wanted to do some IR and UV photography....which I am glad I did as I purchased the EOSRa recently which is much more user friendly for nightscape images.
With a full-spectrum mod you will need an Optolong L-Pro or similar filer insert
to mitigate the strong magenta cast the camera's images will have post-modification.

Cheers Peter!
Full Spectrum does sound interesting if the budget allows it. If I don't go down that path is the mod I need just removing the IR cut filter and adding a glass filter in it's place?
A bit confused about all the options
Cheers
