  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Apparently the RED has X-Ray vision...

Nice images. But I don't understand this is a modified RED with the protective filter in front of the sensor removed ? Or you just stacked lots of NDs in front of it so that only IR can pass. or both...

Bingo. It's a special camera that RED built without an IR cut filter. I then added a ton of ND to eliminate visible light [with the exception of the last few pictures].

Aesthetically, it's more interesting if you only cut 3-4 stops of visible light, so you get an interesting combination of the two. But there's sure something fun about stacking 10+ stops of ND in front of a camera and still have it be more sensitive than a normal RED.
 
cool stuff!
Any chance you might be able to shoot some images using an Infrared light source only? I am a DP in Germany working on a wildlife documentary about bats and would love to see some night-vision style type of images with the IR RED, (and hope to get a chance to shoot some myself).

Scarlet lens?

Scarlet lens?

scarry, so IR light can pass through black plastic? I wonder how a low cost lens with plastic housing reacts to IR light - maybe IR contaminates all the glass elemints inside?

Will the Zoom lens on Scarlet have a black plastic housing, or will it be all metal?

What?

Other tan the fact that you must be the most asexual man on the planet, why the dig at Aaton? I owned one for 12 years and never had a significant neg. scratch.
 
Fun Stuff Brook, gotta let me know when you're playing with the rare toys.
 
Cool shots :)

They use this technique of IR photography to take pictures of old paintings to tell if they are real or not (it shows any original painting underneath / initial sketchlines)
