This is my trusty Canon 2000D that I modified several years ago for astrophotography (removed the blue filter). As another part of the mod, I removed the reflex mirror to keep the system free from vibrations at the start of each exposure.

Unfortunately, one of the ribbon cables that connects the motherboard to the back panel partially tore, leaving about 50% of the buttons inoperative. You can still change the exposure length, ISO, go into gallery, but I think you can't change the aperture.

That being said, it still controls as it should using your computer. I used it exclusively with the ASIAIR, and I attached two of the images I made with it. Veil was a test, and Sadr Region was a proper run with the TV-85. The sensor on this camera is really good.

I priced the camera accordingly. Will cover Paypal fees and shipping to CONUS.
