Stunning Effect
After viewing some spectacular images on the internet, I purchased the R72 filter simply to play in the infrared spectrum without the high cost of sensor stripping.

Nice fit for an olympus E510
I was a little worried about the ability of the E510 to take good infrared photos with the ir cut filter still in place. All of my worries were gone after I saw that first photo, the hoya rm-72 filter is a good match for this camera. I bright sun my exp time is anywhere from 4 to 6 sec. at f8 and an iso of 400.

Why choose the Hoya 82mm R-72 Infrared Filter for your photography ventures This specialized filter is meticulously engineered to facilitate infrared photography, a technique that can transform the ordinary into the extraordinary with its unique visual effects. The Hoya R72 is compatible with both digital cameras and infrared film, offering versatility to photographers who wish to explore this intriguing photographic domain.
Infrared light, which begins at the high-red area of the visible spectrum around 750nm and extends beyond 1000nm, remains invisible to the human eye. However, the Hoya R72 filter is adept at isolating this spectrum, allowing only the highest red edge of visible light and infrared light to pass through. When you peer through the R72 filter, you'll notice its near-opacity, a characteristic that underscores its effectiveness in filtering out non-infrared light.
Photography captured using the Hoya R72 Infrared Filter unveils a world that radiates differently under infrared light. Subjects and landscapes reveal unexpected textures and ethereal qualities, offering photographers the opportunity to produce images that are both visually arresting and creatively distinct. The results are often surprising, with foliage turning white, skies becoming dramatically dark, and everyday scenes morphing into surreal landscapes.
It's important to note that infrared photography requires a different approach to exposure settings. The filter factor and exposure compensation for the Hoya R72 can vary significantly from standard photography, largely dependent on the ambient lighting conditions. Photographers may need to experiment with longer exposures or adjust their camera settings to capture the desired effect.
The Hoya 82mm R-72 Infrared Filter is a tool for photographers who are eager to delve into the world of infrared photography and discover the unseen beauty that lies beyond the spectrum of visible light. Whether you're a seasoned professional or an enthusiastic hobbyist, this filter is an essential addition to your photographic kit, opening the door to a new realm of creative possibilities.
