<p>So 6 months ago I picked up a Sony A3000 body for $30, seller claimed all color images were coming out purple. I couldn't resist a deal like that. It does take all color images purple, but takes great B&W images. Or if you choose custom WB the colors are better. For Christmas I got a 2nd A3000 in good working LN condition f/ $180. I took the lenses off both and to my surprise the actual color of each sensor is different! So was the $30 one modified at some point? Does it need a special filter for IR ?</p>
<p>If you Purposely over expose the $30 Camera in B&W mode on a sunny day, w/o any filters, it looks sort of like Infrared. <br>
or is there just something wrong with it?</p>
<p>Thank you!<br>
