The special filter for extreme contrasts

The B+W 093 Infrared Filter blocks the entire light spectrum. It therefore appears almost black and captures the pure IR range without visible red. It enables image results with extreme contrasts.

With the B+W Infrared filter, the existing residual sensitization can be exploited for experimental black-and-white photos with high contrasts.

Green leaves and grasses are reproduced from bright to white. A "wood effect" with dramatic contrast between clouds and sky can be achieved.

Notes: 

• Check the IR-suitability of your camera first: To do this, just point the IR-remote control at the camera and press any function key. If the monitor of the camera shows a white light spot, this means that the camera sensor has got enough sensitivity left. 
• IR-photographs need to be edited with a post processing application: Convert the photograph into black-white mode and use the automatic contrast or - to obtain an even better result - increase the contrast by using the histogram.
