I’ve been suffering from GAS again. This time it’s this unusual looking camera, the Nikon Coolpix 990 from 2000. I actually wanted the first of this range of cameras, the 900, for the #ShittyCameraChallenge #1990sCameraChallenge but I couldn’t find it. So this one will have to do (and I’m actually very happy with it). OfContinue reading “Checking out the infrared capability of the Nikon Coolpix 990, 25 November 2022”

Out with the modded Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ8 for some digital infrared, 10 November 2022
It’s been a while since I have been able to take some digital infrared photographs, but this morning the weather was ideal.
Street photography in the only street in Fetais, 23 August 2022
A recent Twitter poll was asking about street photography, which encouraged me to get out in Fetais with the full-spectrum Lumix and the Urth IR filter. Now, where’s that street again? http://keithdevereux.blogspot.com/2022/08/street-photography-in-only-street-in.html
Revisiting some old favourites under clear skies, 12 August 2022
Of course, although I went full-spectrum the plan was always to take some infrared photographs with the Lumix DMC-TZ8 and the Urth IR filter. http://keithdevereux.blogspot.com/2022/08/revisiting-some-old-favourites-under.html
When a plan doesn’t quite come together, 08 August 2022
After a mixed start the sun came out and I took the chance to pop out to revisit a few places in Fetais near Meco with the full-spectrum Lumix and the Urth IR filter. Unfortunately, as soon as I went out the clouds rolled in leaving a hazy and cloudy day. Still, I persisted andContinue reading “When a plan doesn’t quite come together, 08 August 2022”
Urban infrared photography in Meco, 04 August 2022
After a cloudy start the sun eventually cleared to leave a decently sunny day. So it was a chance to pop out to explore Meco with the full-spectrum Lumix and the Urth IR filter. http://keithdevereux.blogspot.com/2022/08/urban-infrared-photography-in-meco-04.html
Urban infrared photography in Águas Boas, 03 July 2022
It was a lovely sunny day, and a chance to ‘test drive’ my new Urth IR filter.
Infrared cloudscapes, 04 June 2022
Between rainstorms I took the opportunity to take some rubbish to the bin (here there are large communal bins rather than individual bins for each house) and noticed clouds behind the neighbours’ orchard. I grabbed a quick photo on my phone but just knew it would be a treat in infrared. I took a fewContinue reading “Infrared cloudscapes, 04 June 2022”
Digital infrared with the modded Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ8, 06 May 2022
After the full spectrum modification of the Lumix DMC-TZ8, I took it out for a test drive with the Hoya 720nm IR filter. On the whole I was delighted with the quality of the infrared images created.
Digital infrared with the modded A1400, 06 April 2022
Popped out to the shops today and as it was lovely and clear I thought, why not take the Powershot A1400 and do some digital infrared?
Digital infrared on a windy day, 01 April 2022
After a cloudy start it turned into a clear but windy day. Still, it was an opportunity to take out the DSLR and R72 filter for some infrared photography.
Infrared street photography in Águas Boas, 19 March 2022
It was a lovely sunny day again, so it was a chance to take the R72 IR filter to Águas Boas for some infrared urban photography. These images are taken from the JPGs rather than using the RAW files and were processed in SnapSeed. They came out rather well.
Experiments with Infrared, 18 March 2022
I’ve been wanting to dabble with infrared (IR) photography for a while. The last time was in the early 1980s, with Kodak’s famous infrared film, but that’s not been available for a long time. I bought a little Canon digital to turn into a full-spectrum camera (more about that soon) but in the meantime IContinue reading “Experiments with Infrared, 18 March 2022”
