I let myself be tempted by a total defiltraton of a canon 6D mark I. I'm very happy with the result. Thank you Richard for your quick answers despite your work overload!

After scrolling through and installing an Astrodon Inside filter in my Canon, I'd like to make this comment: Richard is friendly and very professional. All my e-mails were promptly answered.
He can now count me among his loyal customers. Many thanks to Richard.

Many thanks to Richard for his advice and fruitful discussions, his meticulous and efficient work, and his prompt deliveries. After just defiltering an EOS500D 3 years ago, it was the turn of a 100D this year, with Astrodon refiltering and the installation of a temperature sensor, not to mention mains adaptation. Thanks again Richard, and see you next time?

Many thanks to Richard for the quality and speed of the transformation (temperature sensor and Astrodon Inside refiltering) of my Nikon D5200, which had been silted up by a first life in the desert and recycled for my automatic observatory under construction. Absolutely top-notch!

I contacted Richard for advice on infrared. After several exchanges, I finally opted for an OG 590 defilter on a Canon EOS 700D camera.
I've just tried it out for the first time, during a sunny hike. The hands-free operation is an undeniable asset. For a first timer, the shots are pretty good!
Thank you Richard for your invaluable advice, your professionalism and the quality of your work.

What more can I say than all the previous messages. Just that they're true. I had my eos40d scrolled and I must say that the work is impeccable. I can only find one fault with it, since then I've been sleep-deprived by staying outside to photograph the slightest nebula. :D
Thanks again to you, Richard, for your work.

For the past few weeks, I've been lucky enough to have a brand-new EOS 100D, which Richard modified into a Schott 715. For several years, I had been using an EOS 10D, also modified in 2009. I'd had enough of uncontrollable hot spots, temperamental auto-focus and random rendering. The first tests with the 100D blew me away: ultra-precise focusing, contrast rendering that only requires a little color saturation if you wish, and the almost total disappearance of hot spots (the 100D is used, however, as was the 10D with a very basic zoom, Tamron's 18-200 mm, an unstabilized 140-euro beast that doesn't look like much). I can confirm that the APN has retained its automatic cleaning function (just remember to reactivate it in the menu!). All that's left now is for me to get up the nerve to take out some landscapes in full sunlight and do something other than my usual work. What do you say? Thanks who? Thank you, Richard!

For over a year now, I've been using a white EOS 100D, which Richard has completely refurbished. I figure it's never too late to leave a note in the guestbook, and express my gratitude for the quality of the work done.
Today, I shoot IR and UV macro photography with breathtaking ease (IR photography at 1/4000 fps is just unheard of). The autofocus is ultra-precise, and the custom white balance saves me hours on LR. So if you're interested in IR, UV or astro photography, Richard will transform all your cameras in the twinkling of an eye. Thanks again Richard and see you soon.

If you need to de-filter your Canon, don't hesitate, Richard Galli is there and will give you full satisfactionL I sent him my 650 D a few days ago, and less than a week later I found it perfectly packed and very effective on emissive nebulae, and usable in daylight if required (he adjusts the white balance and everything's fine). What's more, Richard is not stingy with his advice. He's a true professional. Thank you, Richard.

Santa brought my old Nikon D70s, which was no longer of any use to me, to Richard. Now it's off to a second life. The first IR images aren't great, as I'm out of practice, but the results are encouraging.
Thanks to Richard for his professionalism and responsiveness.
