Getting Started In Infrared Photography

- In this video I give an overview and introduction to Infrared Photography for those who have had no experience with it. In the video, I talk about the three most common ways one can take infrared images:
1.) Purchase a camera specifically made for infrared photography
2.) Put a filter on your lens that only allows infrared light to pass through to the camera's sensor.
3.) Have a normal camera converted to infrared or purchase one that was already converted.
Next I explain my choice and why I chose to go that route then I explain the different frequency choices one has for infrared photography. Finally, I process an infrared image demoing what is needed to do in Photoshop to achieve the "Infrared Look".
For a primer on infrared photography, visit this website:

For post processing, look here:

These two companies seem to be the most popular for infrared filters and camera conversions:

kolarivision.com
Here is the camera I purchased on eBay:

I’m going with full spectrum, remove the factory filter then place the filter I choose on the lens, even a UV/IR cut filter for normal color range. For me this seems like the most versatile. Using a Nikon P1000 with RAW and super Zoom
Excellent explanation for the beginner. Thank you!
Don’t forget using your phone! It works great with a filter and step ring!
thnx for the tips.
I allready had my dslr modified to full spectrum because of astrophotography and the greater sensitivity to nebulosity in space. I am trying IR with a IR850 filter so is now also have something to do by daytime :)
Very interesting. Very informative. After having watched thousands of photography related videos... It is hard to find new content. Thank you very much for your time and effort.
I have a Nikon d3200 converted to 590nm, but I always de-saturate the final image so it resembles more the 720nm filter.
Thanks. Very useful as always. Have a nice week end.
It's really only "Near Infrared photography" once you get to true IR the sensor is totally different and will give you a thermal image.
Near infrared is just as 'true' infrared as thermal infrared
Hi Tony Can I ask what is the magnifier you use when you magnify a small area for us to see better? Thank you
Good one Anthony, I did some IR stuff back in the day on film using red filter but have not thought of doing it digital, until now. Now to buy the filters and have a go with my 645z. You are costing me money :-) Love the videos.
My object was to duplicate B&W photography using 35mm IR film, which is generally no longer available. I set my Lumix DMC-ZS20 to shoot monochrome then added an IR850 filter (I used an IR1000 filter also, but this required some photoshopping to increase the brightness). Shooting in color and then photoshopping to monochrome doesn't seem to work as well.
Yes
Good tutorial I've been thinking of infrared for a while I may look for a converted dslr .
Thanks.
I bought a used Nikon D80 IR converted by Life Pixel about 4 years ago. Not sure what filter it has. I think it is standard (720nm). I've used it may 3 to 4 times a year. Have got a few really good shots, many not so good. Now that I am retired and it is spring, I have some time to really work with it. Just when outside and set the white balance against the grass - sunny 1:00 pm. I did a fair bit of Kodak B&W IR and Ektachrome Colour IR many years ago (before I got married). Wanted to get back into it. Digital IR is a completely different beast.
That was a game changer for me when I got the custom wb under my knowledge
Great video Anthony!! One question, this technique gives you the same results as using a film camera with IR film? Thank you for your great videos!
Looks like your camera has a hot spot in the center. I have noticed it using smaller apertures on my 590nm d7000. It also depends on the lens used.
Another great video Anthony, thanks. I have a quick question for where I got confused with your explanation. From 17:40 to 18:40 you explained the work you first do in LR, then at 19:00 when exporting into PS, you do so with the original, ignoring the edits you just made (there were 3 options on your screen, and you chose edit original (rather than edit a copy w/ LR adjustments), and a warning then came up asking if LR should overwrite the settings on disk, with the choices of cancel, or overwrite settings. You were working quickly, and chose overwrite settings. Do you think this choice resulted in what you wanted originally, that's to say with the file imported WITH the modifications you made?, thanks. Now I'm going to watch your series on "Getting started with Photoshop", which I clearly now need :), Pierre Roy
Looking into using a Raspberry Pi Noir camera, a ir capable 6-60mm CCTV lens and a Pi Zero to make a little Infrared camera system, thanks for the info!
I have a DSLR already but am too cowardly to mod it, and having two separate systems will let me have fun recording in both spectrums, that and with my 3D printer I can build it a nice frame/case, probably style it like a multitool from No Man's Sky for fun, might leave some room to add VLF EMF recording to make this a really oddball camera
Great work, thanks Anthony!
I like postproduction in infrared publish more videos thanks anthony
hello,
thank you for this tuto.
Can you make an add-on with a raw ? i have read we must export an image to dng, use dng profile with temp=-80, use this profile in lightroom,...
best regards

I do Research in Unexplained Aerial Phenomena and would like to know if the Sony Full Frame Mirrorless A7S would be a good choice for Night and Day Light Full Spectrum IR ? And which IR Filter you would recommend to be able to detect the fainted Object in any Sky Conditions during Day Light ? Please
Thanks, very helpful.
I had my Sony a6000 converted to an IR590, just to take it up a notch can I put on a IR 720 filter? And will the added filter allow me to shoot at 720nm?
Well done. Nice explenation
Great video!
great video!
I see on E-bay they mention in some advertisements for infrared Cameras, They state they are Full Spectrum. From what i understand this is an infrared converted camera but it requires Infrared filters to cover the full spectrum.
Is this correct and is there any benefit in going down this route.
Very informative Video Thanks.
Do you know the earliest version of PS that will do this? Would PS2 do it? Thanks
oh wow, how good to find you , nice and interesting info, can u tell me what would be the good filter i need to reveal the best records on the ions to ORGONITES AND CLOUDBUSTERS ? , i know the Thermal is a good option but i still do not see clearly the differences between Thermal, IR, infrared and Ultraviolet , please give me a hand on this, thank you
I use a HOYA IR filter just for testing.. The images are too red..? I did use thenew camera calibration profile to fix the white balance but the entire image is either too red or too blue.. it just have one color. There is no color separation between the highlights and midtones and shadows. What am I doing wrong? Help please
You are not doing anything wrong, just open it in photoshop swap the red and blue channel and then play with the hue/saturation or use lightroom after the color switch, hope that helps :)
Some camera's need an adjustment to enable IR photography. My Sony F828 with an R72 filter is producing only red pictures also. Thankfully the 828 can be hacked with a magnet and then it's working perfectly fine with the Hoya R72
I think that is for camera's having a Nightshot function. Probably mostly Sony aswel.
Def the ev
Great stuff. I have been thinking about getting into IR photography but didn't know much about doing so; you just fixed that for starters at least! Thanks!
good presentation, the lens had a strong hot spot, I guess you can PS it out ?
You can decrease the hotspot by adjusting the F-Stop.
wow ems you know what it is not many people have a clue what its called
There is a somehow fourth way .An old sony i got for 10€, 717 i belive. You can instahack it to remove the infraredfilter,cause of a build in night vision mode. YOU NEED JUST A MAGNET but you stuck with 5 mp.
Hi Anthony, I made a video about how to convert your camera to do infrared photography and if you are interested in this subject maybe interesting to see how much work involved.
You lost all your Lightroom edits when you sent it to photoshop. You selected 'edit original' in the Lr menu, rather than 'edit a copy with lightroom adjustments.
You right if you pleased with LR you never try photoshop because we’re lazy.
Actually you can get a Hoya IR filter for as little as $30.00
Why fuji do not sel them... there was a lawsuit against sony because of ...nude pictures and ir xD.
Interesting tutorial, but not for me... I'll pass on it this time...
solid video. thanks
too bad Photoshop has to be used for some editing, instead of Lightroom
