I love this, and Infrared in general.  I have a converted, old Canon Powershot and use it occasionally.  I'm actually thinking of getting a IR filter for my X-T1/2 combo.  May I ask which one you use?

Hi all

 

Joining your discussion here, after a long hiatus.

Comments and critique are all welcome. I have no ego riding on this, I'm already very critical of my land/cityscapeimages. In this instance it is a bit different, for this is a (almost) direct rip off from Cartier Bresson photo, except his is better in all levels... It is a panorama I make regularly, with most of my cameras, every year or so. It has become a bit of a standardized test...   ;)

 

The final image is rather big and I am thinking of printing it on 3 A3 (or even A2) sheets rather than making a long panorama print out (my printer doesn't do those...). Or assemble a " wall " by printing these on A4 sheets and then hanging only the "relevant" parts (don't know if this is very clear) --- I saw such a "patchwork" once and the result was interesting.

 

It is a view from the Ile de la Cité, in Paris, from the Pont des Arts. Shots made with a XE1 converted to 665nm, and 35mm.

(I have a much bigger one, in normal colors, shot with the 90mm, and around 400MP)

 

3 versions of the same scene. One BW and color version of the same panorama (2 rows, 20 images or so, with the 35mm and IR (665nm) converted XE1)

And one photo of the same scene, with different colors. For now I prefer the BW and "orange" version I assembled. The pink seemed a bit too much, but there are instances where it works great.

 

In the final edit, I removed the cranes on the left side of the panoramas. 

 

I am working on a series of such images. have made some from Nimes (and the roman aqueduct nearby) and Avignon already (south of France), but the lack of free time stalled the project. Trying to pick it up again now (thus re-starting with a view I know very well).

 

First the BW:

The color version

And finally the other color version. This was just my reference photo for assembling the panorama (so I can compare the panorama to it and limit distorsions)

 

1.jpg

 

of course I regret not being more in front of the tip of the island (like in HCB original photo, it is the ideal framing) but there were too many people at the "right" spot.

 

The inconvenient of stitching these images and then looking for errors, duplications, etc, is that one tend to look so closely at it, that one may lose some perspective on other things and become a bit colorblind to the shifts in color etc. So if you feel the stone areas are a bit too blue/cool (in that last one, and too bright in the others), let me know.

 

Thanks for looking

ok, that's a bit embarrassing...

(in the computer I was then , the preview of the post was fine, but apparently linking from box.com doesn't work)


Trying again:

I have been shooting a M4/3 LUMIX that I have converted for IR, but was just thinking this last week that I need to convert a Fuji body so I do not need to carry multiple brands of lenses, batteries, and bodies. These photos look great and I now think that I need to find a Fuji to convert. For those of you that have converted a Fuji, are you using native lenses? Is there anything from your experience shooting IR converted Fujis that you would recommend or avoid as far the gear itself.

I'd like to know this as well !!

Adam, I've been able to find some info at the link below. I also just bought a used X-E2 to convert and will probably send it in next month to convert. I want to spend a little time shooting with it first to make sure it doesn't have any issues. Hopefully we will get some responses here.

I had Kolari Vision convert my X100S to dual spectrum, Infrared and Visible a couple of years ago.  I have to use a "Hot Filter" for visible light or IR filters for infrared.  I have hundreds of photos on Flickr and an infrared album there.  Look for Neal3k if you are interested.

Pros on my conversion - I can shoot IR as well as any adapted camera and still shoot visible.

Cons on my conversion - I have to always use a filter (although I do get a nice combined effect if I leave all filters off.)  Also my color balance with the Hot filter seems a bit different that it did before conversion.  Not a killer and worth having both choices.

 

I've tried filters on my new X100F and am not happy so I will just shoot with both cameras now.  It is worth the trouble for me since I love the results with both cameras.

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By Giampaolo Masserano · Posted

      I use a TECHART ring to mount Canon EF lenses on the GFX 50S-II and 100S-II, maintaining image stabilization and autofocus. The only limitation are lenses with a small rear element diameter that make it impossible to cover medium format. Fast lenses like the EF 85/1.2L or the 100-400L, however, work great.

      Looking for Full Frame lenses to adapt to GFX

      By thelostkiwi · Posted

      I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      Thank you. I will research it.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By jerryy · Posted

      Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.

      Image correction with GF20-35

      By Trevor R · Posted

      Jerry Thank you very much. That is extremely helpful. It seems that the camera and the lens have the latest firmware update, so it appears that the corrections should be applied automatically. The lens arrived this afternoon and I took some quick test shots, in which the correct lens information appeared in the EXIF files, so that sounds good. I used Adobe DNG converter to convert the Raw (RAF) files, and then opened the DNG files and saved them in PSD format. However, with a beautiful, clear, cloudless blue sky, there were no lines near the edges to check if distortion had been corrected. Another day I plan to photograph a brick wall. Thank you for your help.
