"Capturing Infrared"

Don Libby

Well-known member
I'll be sending my A7r IR 665 conversion back to Life Pixels shortly to have it converted once again - this time to full spectrum. Now I need to gather the needed filters. Thanks to everyone who has given me this idea (you all owe me a little cash :p:D)

I've also decided I "need a tilt/shift lens" (thanks to another thread) and have decided the best option is to pick up another Hartblie (had one years ago) that way I can use it on both my Sony and Phase One.

MaxMax XNiteCC1 is the one that I use in order to shoot with regular light.

Don, I have read some recommendations that we should use a UV filter along with the CC1. I have tried it both ways, but with different lenses, so I don't have any conclusion on that point yet.

Hi Don

You might try this hot mirror, I like better than the B+W
Hot Mirror UVIR Cut Filter | Kolari Vision Infrared Conversion Service and IR Photography

Also maybe you might be interested in either of these two

Okay folks I need a little help...

Filters have been ordered as well as a new lens both of which are on their way. I'll be shipping the camera back to Life Pixel for yet another conversion. Let's talk about custom white balance...

No I don't need help figuring out a custom WB for IR; what I need to wrap my brain around is the WB for full spectrum. Is this a set and forget or will I need to create a new one each time?

That's it folks. No more images until I return from WY and get the camera back; in the meantime I'll be living through what's being shared here.
