Nikon Z5 converted *NEW* | IRreCams

Description

Attention: There is an Infrared LED inside this camera. Light reflections and stray light can become visible in images with long exposure times and / or dark lighting conditions. This LED is only switched on when using the mechanical shutter; the problem can be completely avoided by selecting the electronic shutter.

Note: The automatic sensor cleaning function is lost during the conversion of this camera.

Note Line Pattern: Some Nikon Z series users report line artifacts in infrared images. With a very high contrast image processing, lines of the AF system may become visible on the images. The chance increases with stronger IR filters, with weak filters the effect seems to be less pronounced. The lines are also only visible with very strong post-processing of contrast, clarity (Local Contrast) and/or haze removal.

Note White Balance: The white balance cannot be set correctly with this camera. Depending on the lighting situation and filter, a manual white balance in the camera is not possible and returns an error message (the problem also occurs with the InfraBlue filter). The white balance can be set to 2500K with color correction, but a clear magenta color cast usually remains in the image. When photographing in RAW (recommended), however, this does not matter because the white balance can be set correctly on the PC. Photographing black and white JPEGs in the camera is also possible without any problems.
