Canon400D
My Canon400D with the Baader DSLR-T- Ring and 2" Filterholder is a modified version. It was adapted for astrophotography. The filter in front of the CCD Chip had been replaced by a filter of Baader, which passes the H-alpha wavelenghts of the common deepsky objects, for details I refer to http://www.baader-planetarium.de/zubehoer/mechadap/digi-t2.htm
