Hoya 82mm R72 Infrared Filter

The Hoya 82mm R72 Infrared Filter is widely used and an excellent option for general use, despite the fact that they're not that low-priced it is still less costly than changing your digital camera to photograph IR, which often demands taking away the IR filter that is in front of the sensor.

If installed on to a tripod and with the appropriate configurations, this Hoya 82mm Infrared filter tends to make the sky darkish and lights up any green vegetation. It provides images as though they may be from another universe, an overall look which many find desirable.

Green trees and shrubs and flowers reflect a lot of IR in order that they appear white in IR. Blue skies have got little or no IR, and so no light is reflected, which tends to make the sky to seem dim, just like you have taken the image at night. With an infrared filter you can obtain some amazing special effects.
