Wow thanks everyone for the detailed reply!

The problem is, my parents are giving me the R since they are considering a new one, so I believe it’s the best to just mod it, extra money on Ra seems unwise to me, i would go for a dedicated Astro camera with that price tag. I’m not sure how serious the moire pattern will be, but I suppose that isn’t too obvious on an astro-image which most of it is dark?

And I just find the structure of sensor quite different from other DSLRs, including the one I modded, so I was just worried about tearing the wrong part out. Is there any schematic diagram that shows the Anatomy of R’s sensor?
