hi all
heres an interesting document I have come across comparing the Canon 350D (Digital Rebel) and the new IR capable Fjui IS-1 camera.

Apparently it wont let me upload a PDF file. So if you want a copy please email and I will forward it on

many thanks

Saturation gone Mad.

LoL @ Mike! I'll have to visit the next time I get indejestion. ;'P (cool shot!)

Really neat stuff Kiddego, I love the intense colors. Yet it still has a strong IR feel. Excellent!!!

newbie are us....in IR.

I have a floppy disc taken apart and can get about 1" of filter from that, guessing.

So. at that point, what to do to get something like a IR image?  My D70 will do pretty well with IR while my D200 is corrected better and won't do squat with IR.        thanks,      TomDart.

Hi Tom
I bought a used Canon Rebel XT and sent it to this company
http://www.lifepixel.com/

they mod it into an infrared camera for me.... I chose the **Enhanced Color IR Filter
I wish I would have chose the standard color IR Filter... because the colors come out way to bright for my taste....

But they had it done and shipped back to me in less then 10 days

**

Thanks for the info.  And thanks for advice on the IR filter choices and your thoughts on that.  Tom.

Anytime Tom :-) you just got every bit of knowledge I have on IR filters and shooting.... lol
I am very much a point and click and hope it works kind of guy. I am so new with this thing :-)
Kort on here seems to know a lot about IR... and he seems like a really great guy I have been reading a lot of his threads.... He might be able to answer anything you want to know about it... or point you in the right direction....

I got into it after seeing the works of....... http://www.myinfrared.com/
and talking to a guy that post images there.... His english was really broken... but after a few long talks I finally bought a camera and sent it off....
Have a great Day Tom!!

Hey Robert. Never had a Kramer guitar...but should pick one up, eh? Cool beach shot. I'll have some more to post soon. Be sure to check out the links at the very first page of this thread if you haven't already, esp. the blog and IR forum... Cheers! ~Kort

well if you can find one of the first original Kramer guitars you might be dropping about 10 grand :-)3 I could be mistaking but i think they are out of business now... they also made some real junk as well :-)3

Here's one to keep the IR thread alive and kickin'

JE

Windmill, IR ...great combination Joe.

seeya  Tunde

That is a red sailboat caught up in all that bush.

: ) 

Here's an alternate IR workflow to experiment with: (Note this won't work on B&W IR images of course)

This is for Photoshop, but should work in other image processors as well that have similar functionality:

1. load IR image
2. duplicate image to new layer and select this layer.***
   ***3) Change Blend Mode to Color
   4) Image>Adjustments>Auto Color
3. Image>Adjustments>Invert
4. Use Hue/Saturation  Adjustment Layer to tweek colors
5. Use Selective Color Adjustment Layer for more tweeks

Again its all about experimenting...give it a go and share your results.

J:woot:e

wow Joe..the last one is mind blowing..

Good alternate workflow Joe, and some sweet images. It is good to see this thread alive and kicking still.

I'll have to do another soon...nice shot there Lovely!

Cool result using the workflow steps there LP!

Yeah...the IR really brings out the awesome clouds.

Wow, was that shot taken through the windshield while driving, TwoPynts? 

I would never get that clear a shot, between camera jiggle and driving (and not to mention I'd have to clean the windshield first)  I'd not even have a forum worthy shot LOL

Very nice dramatic clouds though, I'm going to have to try for some shots of clouds, although up north here we don't get impressive build ups as often as down your way.  

: ) 

Here are a few IR shots taken in a greenhouse that I finally got round to processing.

Neat shot! And I agree, blue skin in a blueberry patch would not have been out of line at all!

: ) 

Wonderful photo and postwork. All the elements really work here. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, really cool work there StaneeRae!  I've often felt that IR is very "Fey" looking.

Another winner! These need to go into your gallery here Stanee Rae! :o)

Glad to see this thread active again! 

Here's one from today...

Cool one Joe. I love the feeling of 'old' that it has. :o)

Very cool work here...

One from a few weeks ago when I went up to the Catskills in NY.  This is a waterfall at Mine Kill State Park.  IR modded Canon G6

Hey Joe, that's a gorgeous waterfall shot. The IR gives it a real fantasy look.

Revive away!  I've been neglecting IR of late, should get back at it while there is still some greenery around.  These shots should put a fire under me.

Love the chess one, and I'd not heard they were making a movie of that old series.

Glad to light ya up! ;'] http://www.amctv.com/originals/the-prisoner/

Wow, those were extremely well done. Thank you for posting the link.

: ) 

Of course being up further north, nothing much is green yet but I've gotten some interesting shots of the formerly green before so I started shooting with my IR modified camera.

I tried a little 'sperimenting and took some bracketed shots. Although I didn't have my tripod with me I had a few scenes that came out well enough to stack them in photoshop.

Did the usual IR post processing and then stacked and this is one of the results.

I think I shall do some more 'sperimenting once it does get all green outside.
