K10D Infrared shots

[lennartmaschmeyer]

Hi,

 

I just tried out my new K10D with a Hoya R72 Filter, it seems to work quite

well, apart from quite long exposure times needed. here are some examples, I

thought it might be interesting for some people:

They were all shot as raw with the DA 16-45mm lens at f4,5 and 20s exposure in

bright daylight. converted to b&w in photoshop.<br>

Someone posted the fact that the K10d will not do IR. I see that he was wrong, very nice. I haven't tried IR with my K10d because of the previously mentioned post. But I have used my DL with a 72 filter, it seems to me that the exposures were more like 5-8 seconds. Maybe there is more IR filtering in the K10d.

Seems like a combination of more IR filtering on the sensor and a lower natural ISO. This one http://www.photo.net/photo/1425347 won a competition a couple of years ago which was a digital IR with my compact. I tested the *ist-D with an IR filter but only ever took a couple of pictures with it.

ANy idea why your shutter speeds were so long? I shot some w/the same filter on the K100d and I think my slowest speed was 1/8 second at 200 ASA. Are you stopping down a lot?
