Digital I.R.

[Blanco Dos]

Hi,
I recently bought a digi converted to IR from MarketKingdom.

I wanted it really for black and white, but the colour is intriguing too but I con't get results in color like 'RealaFan' HERE.

Has anyone some advice, tips and secret recipes?

Aren't there different IR kits specifically tuned to B/W, color and high color?

I don't know.
I do know you can use a filter on any digi camera, but these are so dark I think you might need using a tripod. My camera is a complete conversion with hot mirror replaced by a clear (or blue?) filter, this is next to the sensor so not visible from the front of the camera.

The camera's own setting have a choice of color or sepia or black and white.

Blanco Dos,

Well, I am into digital IR, the one by "RealaFan" was PP. If you want to know the recipe, PM me......

What filter did they use for your camera conversion, if the cut-off is 830nm you will not be able to get the same result as it ill most probably be BnW IR.

Wouldn't the photo by RealaFan be considered more HDR than IR?

They used a 720nm with mine.
I have the black and white, the sepia and the color, though the 'color' is all reds and pinks/magentas before I use a photoshop action which swaps and changes the red and blue channels. (I think?).

This shot is after the ps 'action'. Not so varied colors like realafan.😱
