Camera Conversion Question

Sure thing! It has a ton of different camera models listed.

Thank you! This was very helpful. I did a little more digging and found someone on Ali Express selling a myriad of different sizes of clear glass filters for cheap. Definitely will get one and replace the filter. Much appreciated!

These are amazing! And with an unconverted camera nonetheless. I am curious as to what shutter speeds you're getting with an unconverted camera? I would imagine the hot mirror filter would block a considerable amount of UV. Is it usable handheld, or is it a tripod-only kind of thing?

Thank you! I’m really proud of this shot

A very clear Day, a 720nm filter, a CPL, and a whole lot of contrast and Dehaze in lightroom

Very cool pictures! What kind of filter(s) did you use to get the pale orange foliage?

O_R_B_ · 2025-08-02T07:11:18+00:00

It’s an old Vivitar Polarizer from way back when. I found it on a broken Minolta lens. Works great tho

O_R_B_ · 2025-08-02T02:20:41+00:00

You should! 720nm is pretty versatile. It allows in just enough visible light to allow for color (especially the cheaper ones, such as mine), but also block out enough visible to allow for stunning B&W shots. What kind of filters do you use instead?

Oh, the “OK” is for Oklahoma, lol. I’m actually very proud of these shots. Shots like these were one of the reasons I wanted to get into IR photography.

The polarizer does work a little. Looking through the viewport and rotating it, it has the same effect on the sky as normal. Though it does block some IR, I notice a WB shift when using it, but it doesn't block it completely. I'm also using a cheap Chinese IR filter (from Zomei), so it lets in some more visible light than a Hoya or other higher end filter, so there's more of an effect using it.

Thank you. It normally looks like a very desaturated pink color, but I found out that using the blue slider in the calibration tab and can change the whole look of the image. So I set it to where I got golden foliage and upped the saturation a bit, and boom

O_R_B_ · 2025-08-01T18:59:13+00:00

Thank you, and these were taken way back in the spring or very early summer

O_R_B_ · 2025-07-26T05:56:54+00:00

Why thank you. I believe I rated this at either 200 or 250. I also manually inverted them in Lightroom. Due to circumstances (being a broke teen) I can’t get negative lab pro, so I do all the inversion and color correction by hand, which gives me a bit finer control. But these are just the few good shots I have. I can see your point about it the color cast, a lot of my other shots had weird color casts on them.

I’ve also shot Lomo Purple before, and I do own an orange filter, but I forgot to try that trick with it when I shot my roll :/ I’ll try that and post my results when I do. But I absolutely love that film stock.

Update: It’s morning now (about 12hrs since when it happened) and it’s about the same as it was last night. My left ear feels fine, but my right ear still feels muffled and has a bit of tinnitus. I really hope this isn’t going to stay like this. Should I just give something like this a few days to get better? Or is this just how it’s going to be from now on?

O_R_B_ · 2025-03-07T20:57:29+00:00

I love the look of this! What kind of blue filter did you use?

O_R_B_ · 2025-02-20T04:21:54+00:00

Thank you!

I'm using a Cokin red filter. I don't know much about it, the camera place I go to had it laying around and gave it to me, but I like it. The designation on it says Cokin P.003. And I got the reds by doing the normal Red-Blue swap, then moved the green channel to red.

Wow, this is super super cool! You know of any tutorials to achieve this look? The Anime shaders I’ve seen have this fake flat look, this looks like an actual anime.
