Anyone shoot IR photography and got some hints?

I have to hand an IR modded 1Dsmk2, and also happen to have an 11-24 around too (and a 5Ds...) never shot IR though...

plenty of parks/trees etc around and its spring so lots of bulbs out too

Hi Rob, if the 1D was converted for IR then it's kinda of important to know what type of conversion was done. There are several options, pure black&white, enhanced color; several variants, and others at varying IR sensitivities.

IR conversions tend to mess up exposure/metering so if you don't know what conversion was done, your first step would be to just take some test shots with a 50mm prime; start with Jpegs to determine correct exposure settings and output type; b&w or color....

Standard IR filters; the screw on type, are often required despite conversion, they range from 680nm to 950nm depending on the expected IR result you want; i.e. the amount of visible light to be blocked. If your test shots are 'true' black&white you may not need any filters, if there is some color; although odd looking; greens/yellows, you will need one or more filters to get to black&white.

Take a look at the website below, there is a ton of great info on conversions, their outputs and what filters might be needed. There are videos on post processing also, hope this gets you started. I'll try to find a thread I posted in, it was about options/questions on converting a 1Ds3 to IR; and my thinking on converting a 50D.

P.S. Rob, here's the thread, read through it, there's lots of good info/options/solutions...

if you search thru the recent B&H videos on youtube there was a talk given on IR which even as someone who doesnt quite get the IR thing I found pretty interesting
