Desperate times call for desperate measures. I've still got my old M8. Its excess IR sensitivity ought to make it a good IR camera. Accordingly, today I ordered an R72 IR filter and a couple of step-up rings. I might as well try something new while “The Plague“ has curtailed my musical activities.
Those of you who have used the M8 for IR photography, any tips? Ballpark sunlight exposures, what depth-of-field mark to use for focusing if the lens has no IR mark? Is the M8's internal meter any use with IR? Etc.? All tips greatly appreciated. Please post some sample shots.
Proof of concept: My quick test of an IR TV remote control last May. Yup, the M8 sees things we don't. In magenta, veritas.
