Excellent work thank you

Could I covert an x100f? Any idea how much that would cost?

Is there a benefit to using a drop in or flange filter over the one on the end of the lens with respect to reflections or flare? I would think having the filter closer to the sensor would possibly reduce those negative effects.. but not sure…

The Channel Mixer is hidden by default. To make it and some others eg B&W conversion you need to select it in Customise Adjustments - accessed by the menu button next to the reset adjustments. Excellent review Rob.

Best IR tutorial on RUclips, thanks for the tips and hints and real time information. I was going to buy an IR converted camera. I think this is a better non destructive way to go about it. I own too many cameras already. Thanks again

Good info. much appreciated. Can't wait to try IR photography with my Canon FD lens. Im geeking over here....lol

Hi Rob. When I first loaded the colour swap profiles I was finding when white balancing, the white balance was invariably right on the 2000K end with the pic still looking a touch cool, so not getting enough adjustment (albeit fairly close). I've found that if I create the profile within CameraRaw and at this point set it include the camera profile under the various 'Current image settings to include' options (having loaded the -50 or -100 version as apt under the adjustment settings before creating the profile), and of course setting the desired .cube file at the bottom of the create profile options. Then obviously create the rest of profiles from the apt camera profile/.cube file combos. This seems to give the right end result i.e. RAW files that white balance with adjustment to spare, but is this the correct way to create the colour swap profiles? Just want to be sure I'm not missing something!

Hello Rob, thank you for the great intro video. using one program suits my workflow.

Very interesting Rob ! And a big thx to not limiting you to expensive Adobe SW :). Luminar seems to be good too for infrared. I will try this !

Im doing a nikon d780 its cheap and still a good camera.

You inspired me to get my a7 III converted! Thank you Rob for so much solid information.

Thank you so much, Rob. As a Luminar Neo user I find your reeview and tips extremely useful. Though this editor is not great for infrared photography, I think it is great to get started. Your luts seem like a good option. Once again, thank you.

Thanks fo rhtis!

Thanks, very helpful. Have you ever tried working with Radiant Photo and IR? I use it with my non-IR photos for creating a good basis for further edits. But I've been unsuccessful using it for IR photos. Normally I have to do the channel swap in On1 first. I love Neo for certain tasks, but it it lack too many basic functions and often make changes that is our of our control.

thats cool, works great with my new "old" @5000 IR. thank you

Hello Mr. Shea, I had some help in selecting the camera profile to use in LR. However, making or using LUTS might be a bit much for me at this stage. What would I be missing if I didn't use LUTS and just went into PS and made the color swaps instead? What per cent of possibilities would I be sacrificing? Thank you.

Hi, is it possible to get this effect straghit out of the camera? Only with white balance?

I am really at a loss, I have tried to install both your pre-created profiles, AND one that I made myself with the DNG Color ProfileEditor. Neither Lightroom Classic OR Lightroom show any profiles beyond the default Adobe ones. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have tripple-checked that they're saved in the correct location on my Mac. Thanks.

Great video 👍🏼

The title of your video is a bit of a lie isn't it? Take my Nikon F2 or Canon FTb, your video just dose not cover this type of camera!

Bit of a weird question & apologies if it's been asked before...When I open the DNG file for my 720nm IR photo straight out of Photoshop and perform the Red/Blue channel swap, the foliage will appear a light orange color. However if I first open the image in Lightroom then bring it over to Photoshop to perform the channel swap, the foliage is a light pink. Any particular reason for this?

I have been using these apps for years and still learned a couple of tricks from this simple intro 😮

I use your profiles which are worth every penny, but I loved looking behind the scenes and seeing how to tweak my white balance further. Thank you!

Good info, well done. Thanks!!!!!

What have been your experience using 120 GPS 4k IR photography more importantly Photography aimed at the sky for periods of time. How many UAPS did or have you captured?

Thank you for covering this topic! I just started IR photography, using an original fujifilm xf 35mm f/1.4 and the hot spot is bothering me.

Hum sorry but I didn’t find this video so interesting… some obvious things are delevered in the first part : « better to stay in the same system », « you need to transform a camera tha you lik use to use, and for the brand part , for Nikon you propose to convert very low end camera of very high end mirror less…. I suspect you can have far better bargain in transforming old dslr (less than 10years old) taken on second hand market… so a little disappointed when I think’to all the other videos yoû did on that infrared top

I wish it could change the size of some of the dialouge boxes. The histogram box is hard work on a 4K monitor. I like to increase the size to create less eye strain. Dragging over the names of things, i.e., CONTRAST, instead of tying to hit the tiny buttons would also be another improvement. I can only assume Adobe has a copyright on such things. It's a great program, and I'm glad to be free of the Adobe subscription.

Thanks for your tutorial Rob. Do you think that you could have achieve the same end result with a "normal" photograph; ie not an infrared one. Is there anything that the infrared adds to your black and white result? The image seems a bit noisy. Is that because it is an infrared photo? Thanks again.

Think a 80-b filter would give a similar result at a lower price?

You sound like the narrator from "how it's made" from the discovery channel 10 15 years ago very soothing lol

Hi Rob - just purchased your profiles to upgrade on the original ones. Thanks for the discount and your very lucid video.

As much as I appreciate your free starter profiles etc, these looks fantastic!! Considering how much time these can save someone not familiar with creating their own I'd say their quite a bargain. Thanks for you dedication to infrared photography and processing👍👍

Can you add the gh5s?

Hi Rob, love your videos. Thank you! I would love to know if there is an alternative to the adobe DNG Profile Editor as it is out of date and will not work on my newer 2024 iMac. I have scoured the internet and am at a loss. Can you help here?

would it photos taken on a 590nm conversion be more or less flexible to edit? how about the ultra-contrasts white effect?

are all of the beautiful ir photos you see painted/manipulated in a similar fashion as this? is there no editless, or straight out of camera(ish), solutions?

“so LUT me pick one of these” 🙊

Hi Ron, I was wondering how far I can go without converting my camera? Can I assume all images in this video are from converted camera? I am considering converting my Fujifilm X100v. I purchased a Urth 720nm IR to place on Canon R16mm lens. Sending it back because I cannot achieve bright foliage. I’ve tried, many times and profiles in -100 and -50 temp, with terrible results. I coming to the realization that Black and White is all I can get, but still NOT pleased with results. Hoya filters have been ordered. Am I expecting too much from only using an IR filter.

So maybe I can find some help here: I just recently picked up IR Photography with my dads old LUMIX camera. I am trying to edit just like it's told in the video, but AF seems to not identify the blue sky on the RAW images I try to work on. I am using an old Panasonic Lumix DMC-G5, with the 720 filter by Hoya.

My custom profiles were sent to me super fast and I love the different looks they give me as a starting point, without needing PS. Thanks Rob, super happy with these additional resources

Thank you !

I have the GFX100ii with the Kolari IR chrome 82mm lens. any photos I take look nothing like any of this, they are all just a gross blue hue. everything MUST be edited so not sure why your saying "in camera".

This is not working at all for me, I used a Kolari IR filter, so everything started out blue for me and when I selected the first step (picking white) everything changed to looking fairly normal.

Simply wonderful! Thank you!

Thank you for the presets, very helpful establishing a new IR workflow

What about ccd vs cmos?

For the first time I can see an actual use for Profiles in Lightroom and I would pay for such a feature. Any chance you may have them compatible with Panasonic G1 (it's the only IR camera I have at the moment)

Delivery was very quick. Thank you. I received my updated profiles and have started to test them out. My initial response is "Wow!" The flexibility is terrific. Keep up the good work!

Hi Rob, I am hoping that you'll get to see this message even though this is an over 4 year old video. It appears that Adobe DNG Profile Editor no longer works on the latest OS on MAC-OSX. I was reading that they want us to use Adobe Profiles SDK instead. I have been having difficulty understanding what they are telling us to do. Have you had any success in using the SDK? I was looking through your videos to see if you've updated anything because of it, but haven't noticed anything. Thanks for everything you do to forward the IR world. Regards Colin.
