Shannon: Thanks for taking the time to apply the Auto Levels to the Curlew Lake photo. It proved that Auto levels is very similar to Auto Contrast Adjustment...
Al, I wouldn't say that it proves that auto levels is very similar to the auto contrast adjustment. It really proves nothing, since we don't have a decent...
Hi, do anyone use 10d for infrared, i have just swapped my f828 for this and i wonder if i can take some pictures simmilar to those form f828 Best wishes...
Since there has been so much discussion regarding the auto adjust features of levels colors and contrast there is something that might be interesting to share...
I just wanted to take the time to thank Jules for recommending the F828 for IR ...... bought one a few weeks ago and it is more then I could have hoped for....
I am using a 10D for infrareds with a Hoya R72 filter. You can see my results in "Shannon's IR". From what I gather, the camera you just swapped out is much...
If it was a SONY F828 then I agree with Shannon that you will not get as good of a result with the 10D but if the foliage and camera don't move during exposure...
Al, could you please tell me what settings you use when you do IR with your C730? I have the best luck with night mode...but I am hoping there is something...
Marcia: I generally set the camera to Aperture mode and let the camera select the shutter speed. If the weather is calm I will set a smaller f/stop(f/4 or...
Ted, I'm only doing Auto Levels for most of my infrareds. What other things do you suggest if I were to want to get the output looking similar to the f828,...
Shannon, After Adjust>levels and anything else you want like curves, cropping,etc., as a final last step. (Note: Always save your original image in case you...
Shannon, This tutorial has a lot of pointers for improving your images including a section on LAB sharpening which may yield better results for your infrared...
Thanks Al. Guess the Oly C7XX series is not good for infrared. Too bad. I really like the effect. I still have my old Sony Mavica FD-75. I wonder if ...
Marcia: I hope that I didn't give you the wrong impression about the Oly C- 7XX cameras ability to capture Infrared Images. It just doesn't give you the color...
Thanks again, Al. I have done a few black and white ir photos, which were mediocore. I will definitely check the file section today and try some more photos...
Hi Al, I went to the files section and studied the documents and pictures. Then this afternoon I tried the aperture settings, I tried manual using the setting...
Marcia: You definitely have an IR Image. I have a hunch as to why you are having the problems that you describe. First, I am curious as to what the shutter...
Hi Al, My settings were: F/3.2, ISO 100 @ 1.6 sec. It was just the night mode automatic settings. Gregory Georges recommends the Harrison Filter in his...
I've been having computer troubles lately, but things are coming back, so hopefully soon I'll be able to unload my CF card. In any case, allow me to ask you...
Shannon, Sharpening is in reality a process were the edges are accentuated but it can go too far. As you increase sharpening you get to a point were the...

According to Larry Berman: The coolest filters we've come across are the 88a and 89b sharp cut infrared filters from Harrison and Harrison. These filters block...
Marcia: I believe he is mistaken when he states that the 88a and the 89b block all visible light. Their cutoff points are in the 700 t0 720 Nanometer range....
Marcia: I don't know why you would get a better image using the Night Mode instead of the Aperture priority. They should give you the same exposure as long as...
Al, You are correct the visual light cutoff occurs with the 87 and progressively from 87C to 87A. I use the 87 and the R72(88A) which I think give the best...
