Hi Debbie, It is a modified camera. I modified it myself, remove the IR cut filter and also installed a peltier cooling system: http://www.rankinstudio.com/dslrmod It has taken a while to get everything functioning well. I have a lot of weight on my Atlas, it took a lot of work to get it to run well. When the wind kicks up all all, my shots are ruined. Eventually I plan on building an observatory and getting the mount on a concrete pier. That should help a lot. Cheers, -David On 8/13/2011 5:29 PM, Debbie wrote:
I love it David. Is that a modified camera? The tracking looks good too. I guess it takes lots of practice to get things right.
