Hello everyone, I'm relatively new to this website, however I'm not new to photography or forums, you can find me on a few out there.
Anyway, I mostly a film shooter, and I had a digital question. I have a 5DmkII that doesn't get much use these days, however I was thinking since the demise of some good IR film, that I might can have it converted for infrared.
But then of course it wouldn't be usable for normal photography. It's kind of an expensive camera but I don't really use it that much, however I would in theory like to have the availability of shooting with it again if I should find a client that requires it. While looking for the proper infrared filter back when I started shooting infrared film, I also noticed that they had a few different kinds including infrared pass filter versus an infrared blocking filter.
But I'm not really familiar enough with wavelength numbers to fully understand everything that goes on with the light spectrum, but I'm asking in theory if I were to have the sensor converted so that it could except infrared light and take infrared pictures, would I be able to pick up a filter that I could put at the end of the lens that would undo basically what I did to the sensor in order to shoot normal Photography again?
If this is possible, should I be aware of any issues that I might encounter using such a filter
Thanks so much for any help/info.
