Re: Converting an *ist DL to IR

He never runs with an IR filter on the lens of his modded camera. One thing he did say is that some cameras can autofocus through an IR filter, some cannot. It was Brand dependent. James On Wed, 25 May 2011 11:29:54 +0200, Thibouille wrote: >James, if you don't put an IR filter on the lens, sen

Re: Converting an *ist DL to IR

You have to take off the IR cut filter, and add clear glass of the same thickness, otherwise you can't focus properly. When you are shooting, if you want to only shoot IR, you still need an IR filter to cut out the visible and UV light. Likewise if you want to shoot visible, you need a filter tha

Re: Converting an *ist DL to IR

IIRC there is also a front or back focus effect from IR because of the different wavelength so some places recalibrate AF to reflect that change. 2011/5/25 Rob Studdert : > On 25 May 2011 19:19, sky wrote: >> A guest at the club had a talk about this very subject so will pass one what >> i can r

Re: Converting an *ist DL to IR

James, if you don't put an IR filter on the lens, sensor will grab both IR and visible wavelength light, won't it? So if you only want IR, you have to put a filter on the lens anyway, or am I mistaken ? 2011/5/25 sky : > A guest at the club had a talk about this very subject so will pass one what

Re: Converting an *ist DL to IR

A guest at the club had a talk about this very subject so will pass one what i can remember of it. Apperantly, the sensors are very senative to IR but the camera manufractors put an IR cut filter in front of the sensor as part of the sensor assembly. All that is required is to remove that IR cut

Converting an *ist DL to IR

'Morning all My son is interested in having his old *ist DL converted to IR only (and one of his mates wants to similarly convert an EOS 400D). Does anyone know of any company that carries out this type of conversion (doesn't have to be in Australia). Che
