An infrared......

[No message]

Very nice. Good timing, I just dug through my IR filters this weekend and am planning to give it a go with my X-S1. I have an R72 and a #87 IR filters. I was lucky to have the required step up rings as well. Which filter did you use?

I can only imagine the LCD was black, so how did you frame and focus? I'm not familiar with the camera in the EXIF for your photos. Using a DSLR I was able to unscrew my filters to compose and set the manual focus and adjust focus if my lens had an IR marking. I also set manual WB, my DSLRs can help determine what works once the filter is back on. Not a simple process, this is much easier if one has an IR modded DSLR, but that dedicates the camera to IR.

One sweet shot.

HI Paul

I own the same setup, how do you control the hotspot ?

Is the hoya R72. The camera is a fuji IS-1 based on the s9500 . You can very easily compose and focus through the evf with the filter fitted and shoot handheld as the camera has the IR/UV blocking filter removed.

As for the X-S1, you should be able to compose and focus with the filter on and the camera mounted on a tripod.

You know that you can get the color IR effect with an R72 by reversing the red and blue channels in PP. Picture below, taken long ago woth a Nikon D70. I'll be giving it a go with the X-S1 ASAP.
