Have Fun With Digital Infrared Photography!!

Upgrading your digital camera? Don't sell, give away or trade-in your old camera ...
have it converted to infrared and start "creating" some great, unique images. Our
infrared conversion service is becoming hugely popular - let us have your camera
converted ... and get in on the fun!

We offer two types of Conversions:

1. 715nm: This is the most popular and is suitable for B&W and low saturation color images.
The camera will be sensitive to wavelengths higher than 715nm.

2. 665nm: Suitable for both B&W and Color. Mainly used for color due to higher color
saturation (vs 715nm). B&W images can be produced in post processing.

About Converted Infrared Cameras:

• Cameras converted to Infrared are modified and unable to produce photographs
utilizing the visible spectrum. Cameras converted to infrared may be
converted back to manufacturer specifications.

• Depending upon the digital camera model being converted, results will vary. Certain models
require exposure compensation to be set in order for the exposure to be accurate due to
the filtration of visible light. This is a common and minor adjustment, especially with DSLR
cameras.

• Images produced with an Infrared camera will have a deep red cast to them. To remove
the red cast either a custom white balance may be set in the camera, or images will have
to be corrected in post processing. Converted Infrared cameras will be more susceptible
to lens flare due to the lack of the manufacturer’s short pass filter, especially if bright
objects are in the scene.

• Conversions that are performed on cameras are done so as modifications to the
manufacturer’s specifications and therefore will void the manufacturer’s warranty.
Warranty for conversions is 90 days and is only for the conversion performed ... not any
other camera failure or problem.

• Limitations of the conversion such as minor exposure and focus shifts, as well as the
limited infrared spectrum sensitivity of the imaging sensor will not be considered
malfunctions and therefore no warranty work will be performed for those reasons.

• Newer models with Dust Reduction Systems will require complete removal of the dust
reduction system and that feature will be completely disabled upon completion of the
conversion. This is done because the Dust Reduction assemblies block IR light and need to be
removed to maximize the sensor’s exposure to IR. Once the conversion is complete the
Dust Reduction function will no longer be active.

NOTE:

For all Digital SLR conversions please bring a lens in with your camera so the camera’s focus
can be optimized for that specific lens. No adjustments are done to the lens itself and
the camera will work with other lenses, however, focus performance will be optimized for that
particular lens and focal length selected. We recommend an adjustment lens focal length
between 14-80mm ... so a wide angle zoom would be best.
