And so my infrared obsession begins...

[skiboarder72]

Just got my new infrared filter for my D50 this weekend. I'm gonna have to get another one for the 10mm real soon! Definitely looks awesome, a totally new look on life! Let me know what you guys think.

how much was your infared filter?

you have some hot areas in these but all in all a good first effort.
When it comes to processing there are many variations and many tweeks you can go for.

If i go for the channel switch, i usually desaturate individual colours to make them more appealing. For example you will get alot of cyan in channel switched IR so i personally always desat the cyan... or sometimes the red channel if its too strong.
However some people prefer to keep the cyan cast and all... just have fun playing :thumbup:

It was only like 35$ (52mm size)... gotta love ebay

I'm going to get another for my 10-20mm... 77mm size... that ones gonna run closer to $70

Yea I just noticed that... it likes to blow out in the cyan colors... is there anyway you know of to not cause this to happen? can I try custom parameters on the camera and turn the saturation down? It does look better if I desaturate cyans (or yellow if I do a channel swap), I'll get better with it eventually, infrared photography is definetly a genre in itself

Thanks!

Cool! I have seen these and thought they were for film cameras only. I love the effect, so maybe I will be shopping for a new filter soon

Mine just came in today, thats ebay, but it is freezing rain outside so no fun for me yet. I bought this due to the way it makes black and white photos per this site

Just curious as to how long your exposures were for and what AP? I just got mine and want to try it out soon.

Very nice pictures. What IR filter do you have?

Since he said he got it from ebay it is probably the opteka R72 like what I bought. Same price as mine.
