Kenko Tokina Co., Ltd. is glad to announce a new PRO1D R72 N filter.
The R72 is a near-infrared transmission filter designed exclusively for digital cameras.
Although digital cameras typically block infrared light using a low-pass filter, they still retain slight sensitivity to infrared.
By using the R72, you can capture infrared photographs that render light and shadow in ways not visible to the human eye. While infrared photography traditionally requires careful exposure control, digital cameras make it easier by allowing users to check and adjust exposures on the spot. Since infrared sensitivity varies by camera brand and model, users will need to experiment and refine their technique. However, this filter opens up the world of infrared photography to a broader audience.
* Since standard photographic lenses are not designed for infrared, some may produce internal reflections in the infrared spectrum, which can result in a white circular spot at the center of the image. Please be aware of this possibility.
Kenko is part of Kenko Tokina Co., Ltd. - leading optical manufacturer and trade company specializing in manufacturing and sales of Kenko brand photo accessories like photographic filters, conversion lenses, extension tube sets, mount adapters, binoculars and other products that make one's lifestyle more exciting.
