Heard you couldn't do IR with a Canon 20D... so I just HAD to find out

I'm not able to see any of your pics that you've posted today

I can't see anything. The 20D is less sensitive than the Rebel and 10D for IR though, I have noticed.

AAAAaaaah..I can see it now!

Very cool. I love these shots. What cemetery is this. Is it in Toronto.?

lopix · Mar 18, 2005

Yeah, buddy and me found it by accident a few weeks ago, St. John's Anglican, near Yonge/York Mills. Can't wait for more days off with sun, so I can shoot some more. These were late day, so exposures were scary long (up to 30sec) but at an earlier time, they will be better - and once the leaves are back, then we're talking!

Thanks Iopix. I must search that cemetery out. I got "busted" at Mount Pleasant a while back for taking pics. It is not allowed there. But I just love this scene you have captured here. Good job my friend.!!

What? Says who it is not allowed? I've been there for pix with no problem! Try Mount Hope, just north of Mt Pleasant, East on Erskine off Mt Pleasant Rd.

How did you do these? With an visible-blocking filter? Or was there any post processing to get the unusual colors too?

Was it with the Hoya R72 IR filter? I would love to have one. Does anyone know how well they work on either of the Digital Rebels???

lopix · Mar 20, 2005

It was indeed an R72. Most of the interesting colour came from white balance adjustments of the RAW image. Since the filter is essentially red, you get a red-tinted image. The different white balance settings really bring out the tonal differences. And if it worked on my 20D, should be no problem on a Digital Rebel. Just bring a tripod, my shots from that day were in the 6-30s range!
