The Canon EOS 70Da, modified for astrophotography, features a significantly increased H-Alpha sensitivity compared to the original model. This allows it to capture approximately four times more H-Alpha light than a standard DSLR camera.
This allows the camera to capture significantly more H-Alpha light and is perfectly suited for photographing diffuse nebula structures, red hydrogen nebulae, and faint emission regions of the night sky.
Compared to an unmodified camera, significantly shorter exposure times are possible. In a single clear night, many more individual images can be captured, which can later be used for the stacking process. At the same time, more light reaches the sensor during the same exposure time, revealing fine nebula details and faint deep-sky structures that often remain hidden with a standard camera.
The modification makes this camera ideal for deep-sky imaging, Milky Way photography, and long-exposure astronomy. It is an ideal camera for ambitious astrophotographers who want to create detailed and low-noise images of the night sky.
The modification of this camera was carried out in our specialized workshops by experienced photo specialists with many years of experience in astronomical camera modifications, as well as camera and lens repairs.
Since 2012, we have professionally converted and optimized well over 1,000 cameras for astro and full-spectrum photography in our workshops. Our experience and the precise execution of each modification make every converted camera a high-quality tool for demanding astrophotography.
Each camera is individually tested and carefully adjusted so that autofocus, infinity focus, and sensor function remain reliably intact.
You will receive a professionally optimized astro camera that finally makes the red nebular structures of the night sky visible.

Canon EOS 70Da – Special Features
The Canon EOS 70Da impresses with its modern 20.2-megapixel CMOS sensor with improved noise behavior and high detail resolution. The powerful DIGIC 5+ processor ensures very good low-light performance for astronomical long exposures.
Particularly practical for astrophotography is the vari-angle touch display, which allows comfortable work at the telescope. Focus point, zoom view, and menus can be operated particularly easily—a major advantage for night shots and precise focusing on stars.
Thanks to integrated Wi-Fi, the camera can be comfortably controlled wirelessly, for example from the house or car, while the telescope operates outdoors. At the same time, the EOS 70Da, with its robust construction and modern operation, is one of the most popular DSLR cameras for demanding astrophotography.
Sensor size: APS-C 22.5 mm × 15.0 mm
Resolution: 20.2 megapixels
Image size: 5,472 × 3,648 pixels

Notes on Astrophotography and Modification
In astro-modified cameras, autofocus and infinity focus continue to work as in a standard model. The sensor remains protected, and the internal sensor cleaning system remains fully functional.
The camera can still be used for daylight shots. The package includes an OWB (Original White Balance) clip filter for Canon EF lenses, which allows for natural color reproduction similar to an unmodified Canon camera.
Canon EF-S lenses are not compatible with this filter, as they protrude too far into the camera body due to their design. However, many Canon EF lenses and numerous third-party lenses such as Sigma, Tamron, or Samyang can still be used.

Condition / Warranty / Legal Information
2-year warranty.
The camera is in good optical condition and technically 100% flawless. The latest firmware has been installed.
The displayed photos are examples. Due to the used condition, slight optical signs of use may be present. We do not use retouched product photos; these show real devices from our stock. Cleanliness and a well-maintained optical condition are important to us. Therefore, every camera is cleaned during modification. Although these are used cameras, many of our customers are positively surprised by their optical condition, which is reflected in the numerous reviews.
Sale according to §25a UStG (differential taxation). Therefore, it is not possible to separately itemize VAT on the invoice.
