We offer a professional Refit Service:

Installing the filter requires some technical skill. It should only be done by experienced persons.

You even need to do some soldering in the close vicinity of the camera's sensor!

In addition any dust that might get between the filter and the sensor will appear sharply on the image.

Teleskop Service offers a refit through the Official Canon Repair Service.

Due to the delicate nature of the refit we do not send the cameras to a small no-warranty workshop. Instead we use the official Canon Repair Service for the refit. This means that while unfortunately the warranty of the camera itself is nonetheless voided you have a warranty for the refit! We have sent very many cameras to the service for refitting and until now there have never been any problems. This gives you the certainty to get back the camera in mint condition!

Advantages of the Refit:

This astro refit increases the sensitivity of your camera in H-Alpha by a large factor. Such a refitted camera is even more sensitive than the legendary Canon EOS 20DA Astro camera.

The BA ACF filter also doesn't need the anti-aliasing layer of the original filter - Deep Sky Objects and stars are not prone to colour moire. Since the anti-aliasing layer also renders a slightly softer image leaving it out even increases the contrast and sharpness.

Still Suitable for Daytime Imaging:

The new ACF filters can also be used within some limits for daytime photography. You will need to do a manual white balance, but then the colours appear as normal. We recommend the setting for "artificial light" when using the ACF filter.
