Hidden RealmsEverything around us is blooming again – spring has finally arrived. I made a quick video test with the TB filter and Orange 16. The result is a…
Now I tested a bit further and found out that the Orange-16 filter, which I use for the Orange-Green method, also helps a bit with the Aerochrome emulation…
I have come a big step closer to real digital Aerochrome video. Here is the “secret” recipe. But beware! It may differ from camera to camera, respectively lens…
I have a confession to make: I destroyed my first Triple Bandpass TB550/660/850 filter (great for Aerochrome experiments) trying to get the glass out of the filter ring.…
Just a quick note about my test with Nikon D700 and the Nikon 35mm f/2 AF. This could become my new favorite lens – sharp, no fringing, no…
It’s nice when you can build your own IR camera. But it has limitations. This has become clear in my test of wide-angle lenses with my Nikon D700.…
I am looking for the best wide-angle lens for my Nikon D700. It should perform very well in infrared, both in combination with 720nm filters and with the…
I was finally able to photograph autumn vegetation with a converted Nikon D700 and the Aerochrome combo. This time with an older 50mm lens (f/2 AI). So far…
Many IR filters made of glass are expensive, especially if you buy them for lenses with a wide front diameter. In the last few weeks I have started…
Every now and then you come across something special when experimenting with filters. For example, this: golden yellow and purple trees. It almost looks as if a gold…
I’ve been dabbling in ultraviolet photography for years. But I just can’t find the right approach. I want to like this “different” kind of photography in the invisible…
You want an Aerochrome filter? Forget IR Chrome, forget all the well-known and overpriced filters and buy a Hoya Green X1 instead and a dark yellow or light…
After a lot of work, my Nikon D700 Infrared is ready for action! After several Nikon D70 as well as a Nikon D80, I have now converted a…
Yes, I made a mistake. I have unfairly praised and promoted the IR Chrome filter in the past. Kolari Vision’s filter, designed by a French IR fan named…
Ever wondered what an infrared rainbow looks like? Only for about a quarter of an hour, shortly before disappearing on the horizon, the sun shone yesterday. And in…
Astrophotography seems like a good hobby to me. My girlfriend’s father gave me his old telescope some time ago. I, as a technophobe, had a long time trouble…
It is raining incessantly in Switzerland. And it has been for days. The Aare, the river that runs through my city, will soon overflow. There’s not much you…
Converting a camera to IR or full spectrum is exhausting, but also very satisfying. I like making something new out of something old and giving it my own…
As I probably once alluded to, I am looking for a false color IR style that will produce blue trees. I have tried many things. For a long…
As readers will have noticed, I’m a fan of dramatic skies – whether that’s in the form of wild cloud formations or stark color gradients. And it doesn’t…
