2.ZWO ASI120MC-S LUNAR & PLANETARY IMAGING CAMERA

The ZWO ASI120MC Super Speed Color Camera is a perfect choice for lunar and planetary imaging. Its CMOS sensor is sensitive enough to capture bright deep-sky objects like star clusters or nebulas. Featuring a USB 3.0 connection, image download times are lightning fast!

3.CANON 1300D ASTRO-MODIFIED.

I and my Friend Aditya Kinjawadekar did a full spectrum modification on a Canon EOS1300D DSLR camera. We disassembled the DSLR and removed the IR Block filter and the LPF2 filter which makes the camera sensitive to all wavelengths and makes it a full spectrum DSLR camera.
