B+w 67 mm Ir 830 Basic Polarizing Filter

B+W 67 mm IR 830 Basic Infrared Filter

Unlock a hidden world and transform your photography with the B+W 67 mm IR 830 Basic Infrared Filter. Designed for photographers and videographers who dare to see beyond the visible spectrum, this premium lens filter is your gateway to the mesmerizing and surreal world of infrared imaging. By selectively blocking visible light and allowing infrared light to pass through to your camer´s sensor, this filter enables you to capture otherworldly landscapes and create high-impact, artistic images that stand apart.

Experience the unparalleled creative potential of infrared photography. With this filter attached to your 67 mm lens, ordinary scenes are rendered into extraordinary visions. Green foliage and leaves on trees turn a brilliant, snowy white in what is famously known as the "Wood Effect." Blue skies become dark and dramatic, often appearing almost black, causing white clouds to pop with stunning contrast. Water surfaces absorb infrared light, making rivers and lakes appear deep, dark, and mysterious. The result is a dreamlike, ethereal quality that is impossible to replicate with standard photography or post-processing alone. This filter is an exceptional tool for landscape, architectural, and experimental fine-art photographers seeking a unique and compelling aesthetic.

Crafted with the legendary precision of German engineering, B+W filters are renowned for their exceptional optical quality and durability. This infrared filter is made from high-grade optical glass, ensuring maximum clarity and sharpness while minimizing distortion. The filter is housed in a robust and slender brass mount, which prevents binding and cross-threading on your lens, guaranteeing a secure fit and easy handling even in challenging field conditions.

B+W offers a range of infrared filters, each meticulously engineered for specific creative outcomes. The specific transmission properties define the final look of the image. For example, a filter like the B+W 092 demonstrates this level of precision: The almost black, but in front of a light source dark purple B+W 092 infrared filter blocks visible light up to 650 nm, and only just below 700 nm does it let 50 % through (hence the dark red colour). For 730 nm to 2.000 nm, the transmission is over 90 %, i.e. very high. This allows shooting of the pure red and infrared image. This IR filter is suitable for most digital cameras.

The IR 830 (also known as the 093 filter), is an even stronger, opaque filter that blocks all visible light and transmits only from 830 nm onward. This makes it ideal for purely scientific or highly contrasted black and white infrared photography, producing stark, graphic results. Please note that using an infrared filter requires longer exposure times, so a sturdy tripod is essential for sharp, blur-free images. It is also recommended to use manual focus, as a camer´s autofocus system may struggle when visible light is blocked. For optimal results, use this filter with a digital camera that is sensitive to IR light or has been professionally converted for infrared photography.

Elevate your creative vision and explore the unseen. The B+W 67 mm IR 830 Infrared Filter is more than just an accessory; it is a professional tool that opens up a new dimension of photographic expression.
