I generally find a tweak of the hue controller works wonders, in fact it gives the choice of pink leaves or golden ones without the need for a channel swap.Hi all
Have just got my ir converted camera oiut again to try and get some inspiration back into photography, its a finepix s5700 no raw option, I normally use it for b&w but was looking at some of the colour images and thought will have a try.
What I cant work out is how some of you get the foilage a yelowish colour, after colour swapping mine are pink, this shot I just went out and took to show, white balance is set from the grass on my lawn
Any advice would be very much appreciated
Straight out the camera

What wavelength conversion do you have? "Goldie" images work best on 590nm conversions. Anything longer (I found) wasn't so go

Hi, The use of higher level filters >760 etc tends to give paler foliage. If you want more (false) colour tone (and therefore a better grey scale range) in the foliage, a lower wavelength filter will help... I like the dark red and red filters.
After a little play with your image, this popped out. Very similar to my 720 filter work. for this I swapped around the colour channels as: RED: R-26,G54,B-113, GREEN: R--29, G64, B76, BLUE: R 153, G-76, B 9.
I hope this gives you a starting point.....
Very nice Mark.
Handy tip: The lens hood you use for your 50mm lens cannot be re-appropriated for your 28mm, even if it looks ok in the viewfinder.

Whatever software you use, this ability makes IR conversions a breeze. Click and done (or click and at a great starting point). Saves having to remember how to do it every timemakes it equally easy to save settings as a Preset.
Anyone with any insight for processing Rollei IR shot at EI25 with a 720nm filter..? I've got Ilfotec HC or DD-X on hand...
Very approximately... As in, for anything over a second, I doubled it, and anything over ten seconds, I then added a bit more. Shot on a Pinhole, and bought somewhat on a whim, so I will not be upset of I've completely screwed it up.MDC has 6 min for Rollei IR @ 400 in HC-110(B) which I use successfully. Pulling it by a stop would be about 4.5 minutes by my 20% rule of thumb. Pulling by another stop would be 3.5 minutes which feels mighty short.
Were your exposure times over a second? If so, did you account for reciprocity failure? I put the results of my tests on my blog here because there was precious little on the internet about it.
