Infrared with K7
Are you talking about a permanent conversion (ie. replacing the low pass filter with one that blocks visible light)? If so, handholding would be fine. I have a converted k10d and exposure times are on a par with a normal camera. Not sure if the aerial aspect changes things but I wouldn't have tho...

Infrared with K7
forgive me for asking, but why remake a camera? Why are not satisfied with an infrared filter? Are you so in demand infrared photography to customize it for the camera, the more so as the K-7?

forgive me for asking, but why remake a camera? Why are not satisfied with an infrared filter? Are you so in demand infrared photography to customize it for the camera, the more so as the K-7? The camera with an IR filter needs exposures of several seconds, and the subject is not visible in the view...

Infrared with K7
I believe the *isD doesn't have such a strong IR filter so it's probably a lot more cost effective to buy a I filter for on your lens.

Infrared with K7
yes, I know, my first slr digital was the *isd and I took some IR shots at 1/125th of a second without an issue using a R72 filter. I then traded up to a K10d and was stunned to find out that camera was useless for IR. I also now have K7 that works fairly well but certainly not as good as the *is...

Infrared with K7
Using a Hoya R72 with the Samsung GX-1L (Pentax *ist DS) gives exposures like 1/6th sec at f/3.5 and ISO 400. I used that for my entries in the Mono Landscapes monthly competition. However, using a filter on the lens means composition is tricky, although for the 'Post' shot in my set I discovere...

Getting That 1980's Fashion-Beauty Photography Blown Out Look
There is a new look on the fashion scene that is being propagated throughout several of the major magazines and their web counterparts. That is that 1980′s blown out, overexposed skin tone look. It is not as easy as many might think and it can get out of control more so in the digital form...

Macro lens, close-up filters or ??
ANother good option, and preferable to a £23.00 set of 'close-up lenses', is a Raynox macro adapter. Thanks for the comments all. Having had a bit of a search I think the Raynox looks really interesting. Any advice on whether a macro newbie should go for the 150 or 250? And would an adaptor/step...

New canon lens lol
Just get an old UV filter and smear it with vaseline. That way you can get the horrible effect and, when you get bored with strange arty farty types swooning over the results, you can take the filter off and return your lens to its original quality! :lol: The weird part is that I find a DSLR a lo...

New canon lens lol
Talking of wacky effects and a waste of money... Isn't it time for a revival of the Cokin Creative Filters? Starburst, green centre spot, soft effects, keyhole, and not forgetting the highly convincing rainbow filter? ;) My local camera shop kept giving me the catalogue for these specialist items...

Focus after you take the shot
The Q does it with a filter or maybe through merging two shots with different focus settings (current Sony compacts do this). This is something else though. The gadget, which Lytro is calling a "light field camera," uses multiple internal lenses to capture much more light than a normal camera, at...

k to manual mode for dslr
He's talking about KM lenses not M42. A KM is stopped down by default so by removing the pin it's always at say f/5.6 (or it can be changed on the camera) which would allow Av mode to work. I knew someone who had a faulty K10D that didn't work properly because the mechanism that open/closes the ...

One reason why I love shooting RAW
I also shoot in RAW+. I will be the first to admit that this isn't the greatest photograph in the world and certainly nothing nearly as good as Prieni's, but I think it's a decent example of what you can rescue from a RAW file. The colours in the sky were very dramatic and as you can see the origina...

Filter Step Rings
If I want to fit a 52mm filter to a lens with 49mm filter thread do I order a step up or step down ring? The suppliers don't seem to know:roll::roll:

Filter Step Rings
Step up Barrie. These arrived today I can now tape my welding glass to the 77mm for use with my Sigma 10-20, but will also be able to use the step up rings to use it on any of my lenses from a 49mm thread upwards.
