A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Infrared on unmodifed A6000 ? (alien.top)

I am interested in trying out infrared with my Sony A6000, it is not modifed so just normal.

Can I use it as it is with a Hoya R72 filter, just to try it out, it is my only camera so not interested to have it converted before trying it out extensively.

I did the test with a tv remote and it shows up really nice on the camera, is that enough ?

Maybe someone has actual experience with this, before i order the R72 filter.

I have a IR modified and Full spectrum modified A6000s. Check out some photos here: https://www.reddit.com/r/SonyAlpha/s/hkIPQvbwrr

I recommend getting a modified one online as the cost to pay someone to modify will be similar to getting a second hand modified one.

Like others said, without modification, you need really high ISO or long exposures.
