Fujifilm X-E2 Full Spectrum converted camera!

Infrared photography opens up an unseen world of beauty and never-ending surprise. Up for bid is a Fuji X-E2. The internal IR hot filter has been removed and replaced with a Spectosil 2000 Fused Silica filter which will pass UV from 170nm all the way to IR frequencies over 2000nm. This material is superior in all aspects to Schott WG280 or Quartz plate glass which passes UV from 280nm. I am the only service offering this superior product for full spectrum conversions.

The result is what you see in the first picture in my listing which was taken with a camera exactly like this one.  You can set the WB on green grass for a standard IR look or AWB as seen in the picture here. This camera is the preferred conversion for astrophotography.

The X-E2 is basically the same camera as the X-Pro1, but with only an EVF (no optical window). It sports arguably the best APS-C sensor in the industry. Smaller, lighter and significantly cheaper than the X-Pro1, while offering the same outstanding and image quality and impeccable handling.  JPEG quality is so high that you rarely need to use Raw.

The myth of the ‘retained dust reduction system’: Using clear glass to replace the fluorine coated ultrasonic shake filter originally used is a gimmick. Clear glass adds another layer of reflectivity and distortion to your images.  And dust will electrostatically ‘stick’ to uncoated clear glass regardless of how many times you actuate the ultrasonic shake filter. The fluorine coating on the original shake filter reduces reflectivity and distortion, and reduced the static attraction between the dust and the shake filter allowing for the filter to drop the dust when activated. Unfortunately it also filters some IR and reflects some UV and has to be removed.  I don’t sell gimmicks, just the finest converted cameras in the world.

The camera’s condition:  Operation is smooth and all buttons and functions have been tested. Cosmetically, body’s condition is as new (but please see my pictures for the details as they are my description on cosmetics). The autofocus is tested and this camera is GUARANTEED wide open sharp with all X mount lenses.

Why should you buy from me?

I have been in the camera conversion business for years. There are no surprises when you open up that box.  I take good quality photographs of everything for your peace of mind.  I have over 30 years experience behind a camera and I know what photographers want.  I also have 15 years on eBay with 100% feedback so I know how to make sure buyers stay happy. All conversions are carried out on a Class 100 Clean Bench to eliminate sensor contamination. I use the highest quality custom made German Schott optical glass filters. Beware of cut rate eBay sellers who use 'German quality’ (Chinese) glass, acrylic, plastic or polyester sheet filters for their conversions!  Do you want that in your camera?  Do they guarantee f/1.8 sharpness in their DSLR conversions? Ask them! I also offer unlimited technical support and free camera recalibration and cleaning should this camera ever require it. I sell the finest converted cameras in the world without gimmicks.
