B + W 82mm Basic 093 Infrared Filter, Black Red 830

Before venturing into the ethereal world of infrared photography, the B+W 82mm Basic 093 Infrared Filter, Black Red 830 is an essential tool for professionals and enthusiasts alike. This high-quality filter is meticulously crafted to block the entire visible light spectrum, allowing only infrared light to pass through. As a result, it appears nearly opaque, capturing the pure infrared range without the intrusion of visible red light.

The B+W 093 Infrared Filter is renowned for its ability to deliver image results with extreme contrasts, transforming ordinary scenes into surreal landscapes. With this filter, photographers can exploit the camera's residual sensitization to create experimental black-and-white photos that are rich in contrasts. Green foliage and grasses are rendered from luminous brights to stark whites, while the "wood effect" unveils dramatic contrasts between billowing clouds and the deep sky, adding an otherworldly dimension to your photography.

Constructed with professional-grade materials, this durable filter is a testament to B+W's commitment to quality. Its versatility makes it a favorite among photographers who aim to enhance their images with increased contrast and a unique visual flair. The B+W 82mm Basic 093 Infrared Filter is an effective tool for capturing the unseen beauty of the infrared spectrum, offering a new perspective on landscape, nature, and architectural subjects.

Please note that infrared photography, as facilitated by this filter, should not be confused with thermal imaging. While both utilize infrared radiation, thermal imaging operates at a much higher wavelength range (starting from about 10,000 nm), and serves a different purpose altogether. The B+W 82mm Basic 093 Infrared Filter is designed for pictorial infrared photography, providing a creative avenue for photographers to explore beyond the capabilities of standard imaging techniques.
