Digital Infra Red


The Olympus C2000Z Digital Camera and Infrared Photography

The Olympus C2000Z is sensitive to the deep infrared as well as the visible light spectrum and are exceptionally well-suited for digital infrared photography. By using an infrared filter such as the Hoya R72 in front of the lens you can achieve spectacular infrared effects as well as having the ability actually to compose using the LCD.

 

Without filter With filter
No Filter, ISO 100 Hoya R72 Filter, ISO set to 400

We recommend changing the ISO rating of the camera to 400 and shooting on a sunny day, especially with scenes that include clouds and vegetation. The really special feature of the C2000Z is that you can actually see the full infrared effect before you capture the image, as opposed to shooting B&W infrared film and waiting to see your results after the film is developed.
