This particular one, an Olympus Stylus 1, was a lucky find on eBay, I think from a deceased estate. I already had an unconverted Stylus 1s so am familiar with the camera. Yes converted to B&W afterwards in DxO Optics Photolab7, from raw. Any other software would do. This is fixed @720nm, but there are other options; essentially the IR/UV bandpass filter in front of the sensor is removed and replaced with something else, ranging from plain glass for a full spectrum conversion , through to 840nm for a full IR effect. There's lots of info on the web, but This Site is a particularly good introduction; it uses its own names for the filters offered, but expand each one and it gives the wavelengths If you don't fancy converting yourself, I bought an Olympus E-M1 Mk1 mirrorless body from a chap on ebay in Inverness, who sells pre-converted bodies, or will do yours. Two user names, but nothing listed at the moment fra251252 & fra3434, there's several others, but I've no experience of them. That one I opted for 590nm, but I sometimes then add a 720nm clip in filter in front of it Faststone Image Viewer now has an option for basic colour swapping, as discussed on the video on the LifePixel site 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
