Next Fullspectrum Experiment.

I think this will be the last one for now. It's basically the same thing, I did before, but now eith a B+W #081 filter. This cyan-blue filter is also a technical filter and it blocks IR. But it seems to me not as much as the 470 filter I used before. On some photos you can see the pale green typical if shooting foilage with an unfiltered fullspectrum camera. Others show perfect greens. I cannot explain, probably different overlapping effects or a strange transmission curve.

Other than that I get nice colors, but as the filter is very „cold“ WB of course pretty extreme.

I now tried everything I wanted to -- now I should think what I do with this, actual pictures I mean, no experiments. If only I got an decent idea. Well, usually usages come up at some point, when you don't think too much, so I'm confident.

Nikon J1 Full Spectrum converted camera 660nm filter used.

I was trying to emulate the old Kodak EIR (aka Aerochrome) look with my full spectrum Sigma SD14.

Not sure I'm crazy about the result, but its certainly different.
