Panasonic Lumix DMC-G3 16MP Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens Camera  Converted to  Full Spectrum Infrared  with  14-42mm lens, Lovepro Carry Case,  8GB SD Card , Neck Strap,   Battery and Charger. 

As New condition .  Shutter count only 139 actuations.


IR Cut filter on a sensor is replaced with clear quartz filter. It means that you  need a filter on a lens to get infrared images and camera will work with standard exposure times as normal camera.

It will work with any MFT lens however some may produce hotspots.  I tried with Panasonic 14-42mm, 14-45mm, Olympus 30mm, Olympus 14-150mm and there were no hotspots, but Laowa 7.5mm  and Olympus 45mm f/1.8 had hotspots.

White balance must be set to Custom where you record uniform colour card or just grass. 

White balance affects final image look.


470nm, 550nm ,580nm, 850nm and IR Chrome  filters can be found here:

There is few important steps to do to be able to process images correctly.

1. Create Camera Lens profile in Adobe Lightroom

1.1 Open RAW image in Lightroom and Export it as DNG to known location.

1.2 Open exported DNG file in DNG Profile Editor and set White Balance to -100 in Colour Matrices and export profile to Lightroom folder.

1.3. Open Lightroom.

1.4 Import Develop Profiles to Lightroom

1.5 Restart Lightroom

1.6 Open image in Lightroom and select newly created Camera Profile and Apply it. 


2. Process image in Photoshop

2.1 Swap Red and Blue Channels

2.2 Create Hue/Saturation Adjustment layer and adjust Hue to Blue

2.3 Open Camera RAW Filter and adjust Hue,  Saturation and Luminescence for separate colours in Colour Mixer.


It is creative process but very pleasing.

Take images in a bright sunshine with blue sky to get best results.

Don't expect to have beautiful images straight out of the camera- a lot of creative post processing required :) . Don't be afraid to break the rules :)


P.S. It is very addictive- don't say that I did not warn you :)
