I have been reading Covington's book and although the performance differences between unmodified and modified DSLR's are apparent, they aren't as severe as I had thought. I've come to the conclusion that I'd rather have optimal daylight performance and good astrophotography sensitivity than to have good daylight performance and optimal AP response. I'm going to cancel my modified 500D order and replace with a stock 500D (t1-i) instead. I'll still try to post once I get the hang of it on the deep sky. Thanks again. -------------------- Eric --------------------- WO 80mm 10th Anniversary EZ Touch PST TV-85 Vixen Sphinx Canon 500D (T1-i) 15" Obsession with ServoCat Edited by Eric Gage (07/04/09 07:54 PM) Post Extras       Entire thread Subject Posted by Posted on How well does white balancing work for a mod-DSLR?
