Nikon D90 715nm Standard Infrared converted camera with HD video

Infrared photography opens up an unseen world of beauty and never-ending surprise.  Up for bid is a Nikon D90.  The internal IR cut filter has been removed and replaced with a 715nm longpass filter.  This filter blocks most visible light and allows near IR and IR light to be recorded by the sensor.

The results?  You’ll have a camera that will capture infrared images without the need for long exposures or the need for a tripod. With the 715nm filter in place, this camera is sensitive to just the slightest amount of visible light in the red spectrum.  The results are light color saturation with preserved ability to capture stark B+W images by using the D90s B+W mode or by converting to B+W using software.

With ergonomic controls and comfortable rubberized grips,  The D90 it will accept all Nikkor AF lenses.  The camera sports 12.3MP and 4.5fps continuous shooting mode for easy handheld HDR. Live view on the bright 3" LCD helps with the guesswork that's sometimes required with IR photography.

The first picture in my listing show what the image looks once it has been post processed for false color IR.  Images can be converted to black and white as well.  Included on the CD that will be sent is a tutorial on how to do false color IR this as well as the software to do it.

The camera’s condition:  The camera is mechanically perfect.   All buttons switches and knobs have been tested and work smoothly.  The viewfinder is clear.  The LCD has no dead pixels and has some very minor marks (see pictures).  Cosmetically, the body’s condition is average for a camera of its age with no distractions/eyesores (but please see my pictures as they are my description).  The autofocus has been adjusted and tested and is GUARNTEED f/1.8 sharp with the 50mm AF-D and will likely perform similarly with other lenses.
