The guys at ACS are very knowledgeable on the subject. You don't need more pixels than 10m so it may be a D60 off Ebay may be your best host. Good luck and enjoy your IR shooting. Damien.

Good luck and enjoy your IR shooting.

I have a D90 which I have been testing out with a Cokin IR filter and like the results but would love a converted, dedicated IR camera, as the exposure time on my D90 needs to be almost upto a minute. I have read that ACS can provide a pre-converted IR camera but they do not have any price list for this service. Does anyone know how much this would cost? I am fairly new to IR.

You will need to follow the camera manual instructions if this is your first time with this feature. Once it is set you can forget about ever having to do one again as it will be saved to the cameras internal memory. Regards, Damien. Hi Gary,

Can you give more detail on setting the Custom White Balance please. I've had a few successes on the IR front and want to be sure of what I'm doing - not just happy with great coincidences!! Great article. Hi.
