Digital infrared photography with ir filters

Stumble it! - May 20, 2007


Infrared photography is one of the amazing photography techniques i want to learn in the future. For taking such photos, you need to buy a IR filter for your camera lens, i just ordered mine and it’s the Hoya R72 IR Filter. I’ve read some forums and a lot of people say it’s one of the best ones.

You really need to have a longer exposure for these types of photos, that’s why it’s recommended to have your camera on a tripod. For getting even more sharpness , use a release cable or a wireless release since touching your camera and pressing the shutter button will shake it a bit.

I also suggest using the setting Mirror lock-up on your digital SLR camera if available.

I can’t wait to get my IR filter so i can try to experiment and learn more about Digital infrared photography.

Here are some of my favorite Digital infrared photos: Digital infrared photography

    you know that IR filters will not work with all the slr cameras right? i was just wondering what camera you are using, because i also want to do some digital infrared photos without having to buy a new camera

    Hi, I think that your infrared photo’s are stunning. I have a question? I can shoot black and white infrared shots using the Hoya Infrared Filter…but how can I photograph colour infrareds like the ones that you have produced? Is it in the digital darkroom that these effects are produced? I am curious and would kindly like some answers to my queries. I appreciate all the help that you can give me. Thankyou. Mr Phish
