Yea. Taking new Photos would just make a cooler manual. I am not sure you
need a macro lens though. Some of the pictures are close up, but not very
close.

When you say "modyfying", how drastic were you thinking? Since the
operating voltage is different, you would need a new power isolation
transformer. Plus the HV PCB is quite different since it only runs on
positive.
I am not convinced that mearly doubling up the deflection transistors
(which was done on the 6400) will improve the monitor. However, increasing
the supply voltage and thus the speed of the monitor could be interesting.
