After the Mod.

Hi Guys,yes it is me again, just one question I would like to ask.

Now that I have modded the 5D I expect that I would have to take, new flats, bias, and dark frames to suit the new filter.

Would this be correct, or can I use the ones I took prior to replacing the filter.

Thank You.

Leon

Hi Leon,

Don't you take new flats each time you reconnect the 5D to the scope?
The orientation changes when you re-attach it.
You need to, unless the camera is permanently on the FSQ all the time.

As for darks/bias, I don't think the mod changes the dark noise or bias noise.

I usually like to take fresh darks/flats with every session though, but that's just me.

I don't blame you Leon.

If I was to mod my camera, they'd need to give me CPR after I turn the thing on.
