raspberry pi noir
panning to set up a rpi 'noir' camera soon - it comes with no IR filter.
Question: how about an inexpensive source for an IR blocking filter AND an IR passing, visible blocking filter? |

What do you call inexpensive? This is always a good place to start. http://www.lifepixel.com -- Regards, Savageduck |

IR blocking filter aka hot mirror you can get from amateur astronomy suppliers although it probably will cost more than the rpi. http://www.telescopehouse.com/acatal...25____510.html Wratten 87 is the usual choice for near IR long pass although you can get custom colloidal glass filters at any cutoff in steps of 10nm. (for a price) http://www.edmundoptics.co.uk/optics...s-filters/1918 Cheap IR pass filters are easier the unexposed tail of slide film will block all visible light and pass near infrared pretty well. If you have a long enough piece it is interesting to put it across your eyes and wait until they adapt to the low light levels. You will after about a minute get to see the world again in pseudo false colour near IR. Green foliage looks very bright and sky looks much darker. -- Regards, Martin Brown |

This is always a good place to start. http://www.lifepixel.com Duck, you might want to google "rasperry pi". His whole setup so far would have been under a hundred bucks. Then I am not going to be a big influence in anyway, am I? I started out by asking the OP what he called inexpensive (a vague term at best), and if he can get things done for under $100, good luck to him. -- Regards, Savageduck |

Now you sound like a megapixelist. Here are a couple of shots from my very first digital camera, a Nikon CoolPix E775 which shot images using a 2.1 MP sensor. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1295663/FileChute/DSCN0701A.jpg https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1295663/FileChute/DSCN0250A.jpg I really don;t see the quality of a pi camera at 17 quid which includes the lens, sensor is fixed focus and fixed aperature being able to comptete. -- Regards, Savageduck |

WTF are they going to use them for? They are what they are, snapshots from around 2001 shot on an E775, & that was an actual 1.9 MP on a 2.1 MP sensor. The first digital camera I used was a ricoh 300,000 pixels :-) well that's how the it was advertised. -- Regards, Savageduck |
