This setup blew my already high expectations! I'm having so much fun with it. And the best part is, the camera is super affordable (I bought mine for just under $100, and it goes for $90-120 depending on color and condition). 12 megapixels is more than enough. And this DIY infrared mod is super easy to do! Don't worry, I'll show you how I did it so you can decide if you want to convert your camera to infrared as well. I was tired of bad quality drivers, so I paid the price and got this iFixit set and couldn't be happier: https://amzn.to/4dAxPAY Rocket blower used: https://amzn.to/3YHAeFI You'll need a soldering gun. Mine is super old and basic, I'll probably grab this one next: https://amzn.to/46L7i1M I am part of the Amazon Associates program.
