Defiltering and refiltering with a Schott IR filter RG715 or RG830 can transform your digital camera (DSLR) into a specialized tool for infrared photography. This process allows you to capture spectacular and unique infrared images, revealing details invisible to the naked eye.
Choosing the IR filter
The Schott IR filters RG715 and RG830 are popular options for those looking to venture into infrared photography. The RG715 filter allows you to capture images with a shorter wavelength, offering marked contrasts and vivid colors. On the other hand, the RG830 filter is ideal for those who prefer images with longer wavelengths, producing softer tones and more subtle effects. The choice of filter depends on your artistic preferences and the type of scenes you wish to photograph.
Camera compatibility
We offer defiltering services for a wide range of digital camera brands and models. Whether you own a Canon, Nikon, Sony, Olympus, Panasonic, Fujifilm, Ricoh, or Pentax, our expertise ensures precise and high-quality modification. Each brand and model may have specific characteristics that influence the defiltering process, and our team is trained to handle these particularities to provide you with the best possible results.
Modding process
Modding involves removing the built-in infrared filter from your camera, allowing it to capture a broader range of wavelengths, including infrared. We then install the IR filter of your choice, RG715 or RG830, to refine your DSLR's infrared photography capabilities. This process requires great precision and a thorough understanding of the camera's internal components to avoid any damage and ensure optimal performance.
Results and applications
Once your camera is modified, you can explore a world of creative possibilities. Infrared photography allows you to capture landscapes with striking contrasts, reveal hidden textures, and produce unique artistic effects. Nature, architecture, and even portrait photographers can benefit from this technique to add a new dimension to their work. Additionally, infrared photography is used in scientific and technical fields for applications such as vegetation analysis, heat detection, and building inspection.
