B + W - 62mm Basic 092 Infrared Filter, Dark Red 695

When seeking to capture the unseen beauty of the world, the 62mm Basic 092 Infrared Filter, Dark Red 695, is your go-to tool. This durable and high-quality filter, crafted by the reputable brand B+W, is designed to partially block the visible light spectrum, allowing both visible and invisible IR components to be recorded. Unlike stronger infrared filters, this versatile filter doesn't completely block visible light, resulting in black and white contrasts that are subtly nuanced rather than stark. This innovative feature makes it an ideal choice for experimental black-and-white photography, where exploiting the existing residual sensitization can lead to high-contrast images that are both unique and dramatic.The 62mm Basic 092 Infrared Filter, Dark Red 695, is particularly effective in transforming green leaves and grasses from bright to white, creating a surreal and ethereal effect. It also enables the creation of a "wood effect", which results in a dramatic contrast between clouds and sky, adding depth and intrigue to your landscape photography.Please note, while this professional-grade filter is designed for pictorial infrared photography, it is not a substitute for a thermal imaging camera. Infrared photography and thermal photography, though both utilizing infrared radiation, operate in different ranges, with thermal photography capturing images in a much higher range (from about 10,000 nm and above). Whether you're an astrophotographer seeking to reduce light pollution and increase contrast, or a professional photographer looking to experiment with infrared photography, the 62mm Basic 092 Infrared Filter, Dark Red 695, is a versatile and innovative addition to your toolkit.
