Just recieved my to 720nm infra-red converted nikon D70s.The big advantage with this conversion is that everything works the same as with a non converted visible light DSLR, AF, light metering, view through the viewfinder, ISO... all the same! First result, sadly the grey overcast isn't helping to get the real IR look...  |

The IRD70s is a lot of fun (critical focus with longer lenses is a problem though). I wonder if i should buy a (rather expensive)77mm slim line 1000nm filter so i could experiment with my other (more recent and FX) digital bodies. Here's another shot with the D70 with 12-24mm:  |

Well i did buy the 1000Nm filter, it is very difficult to work with. For the time being i used it on the converted D70. It is possible to stack IR filters( 720+1000Nm). On the D7100 the 17-55 2.8 developed a hot spot and exposure is about 12 seconds in bright sunlight (1/200th @ f11 for the IR d70) Here's a test shot of Evy in the garden,she"s wearing a dark blue dress! definatly need to work on focussing, to be continued....  1000Nm means B&W only unless you want to colorise the shot. |

Some more test shots with the IRD70     By now it's clear to me an IR converted mirrorless or a dslr with live view would be the better tool for IR photography. These types of cameras would allow for better sharpness and selective focus control. |
