What other filters does B+W offer for infrared photography?

In addition to the #092 filter, B+W offers the #093 and #099 filters. The #093 filter is a black infrared filter that filters out the entire visible spectrum, while the #099 filter is an orange-colored filter that blocks the blue and blue-green portion of the visible spectrum.

Randal B : I have been told that this filter will not work with dslr's, more specifically the Nikon D7000. My lenses are Nikon DX AF-S Nikkor 18-105, as well as a Nikon ED 70-300. Anyone know if this is the case?ANDREW R : Nearly all digital cameras are shipped from the factory with an infrared (IR) blocking filter installed over the sensor (digital sensors tend to be IR sensitive). These filters essentially block visible light (in certain parts of the spectrum) but allow IR. Unless your camera has been modified for IR photography, these filters will not be especially useful to you (for the most part).

Filter on Olympus E-Volt 520

Filter does as advertised with the high quality I've come to expect from B&W Filters. Both pictures were taken with an Olympus E-520, ISO-100, F/2.8, Focal Length = 12mm. The first, the reference picture, the shutter speed was 1/250 sec. The second, the IR picture using the B&W 092 filter, the shutter speed was 3 seconds. This gives an overall filter factor of 750. Taking into account the advertised 20 to 40 filter factor for the filter this leaves the internal E-520 IR blocking filter with a factor of 25. Bottom line, IR photography is possible with a E-520 using this filter if the camera is mounted on a tripod.

About B + W 092 IR Filter

With B+W's innovative range of infrared photography filters, you can unlock new dimensions in your photographic pursuits. The 46mm Infrared Filter # 092 (89B/RG695) is a high-quality, durable filter designed specifically for black and white infrared films. This dark red filter effectively filters out light below 650 nm, enhancing the performance of your camera by making optimal use of the relatively low sensitivity of infrared films.

When used with color infrared film, this versatile filter produces images of a pure red hue, adding a unique touch to your photography. With a filter factor ranging approximately between 20 and 40, the 46mm Infrared Filter # 092 (89B/RG695) is an essential tool for photographers looking to explore the potential of infrared photography.

In addition to the #092 filter, B+W offers the #093 and #099 filters. The #093 black infrared filter filters out the entire visible spectrum and is ideal for use with black and white infrared films with a sensitivity up to 1000nm. The filter factor for this model is determined by the film sensitivity.

The #099 filter, on the other hand, is an orange-colored filter that blocks the blue and blue-green portion of the visible spectrum up to 500 nm. This filter reduces the excessive sensitivity of color infrared films in this spectral range, evenly separating colors and avoiding a blue tint. The filter factor for the #099 model depends upon the film's sensitivity.

Whether you're a professional photographer or a hobbyist, B+W's 46mm Infrared Filter # 092 (89B/RG695) offers a new avenue to enhance your photographic capabilities and creativity.
