polidoc Posted March 3, 2010 Share #1 Posted March 3, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hallo Leute, ich bin neu hier im Forum und wollte mal Eure evtl. Erfahrungen dazu hören - ja, es ist Winter und in Mitteleuropa macht das noch nicht soviel Sinn aber vielleicht war ja schon jemand mit der X1 auf Reisen. Ich habe früher schon öfter mit meiner Canon EOS 20D und EOS 5D IR-Fotos gemacht und wollte wissen, ob schon jemand was dazu bei der X1 sagen kann. Hoffentlich hat die X1 keinen so gravierenden IR-Sperrfilter vor dem Sensor. Klar, es gibt kein Objektivgewinde um einen Rotfilter draufzuschrauben, aber man kann ja evtl. einfach einen während der Aufnahme vor das Objektiv halten... Also, hat es schon jemand ausprobiert? MfG Michael Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

polidoc Posted March 3, 2010 Author Share #2 Posted March 3, 2010 Hi everybody, sorry, I posted this German version in the international forum, so here is the English version: I was wondering whether somebody has tried some Infrared shots with the Leica X1? True, it does not have a thread on the lens to fit an Infrared filter on it, but one could simply hold the filter in front of the lens while taking the picture. I am just interested in how the X1 blocks IR-light and if it is suitable for Infrared. Thanks for answers! Cheers Michael Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivsphoto Posted March 3, 2010 Share #3 Posted March 3, 2010 Hi Michael, I just tried a 89-B IR filter - the exposure time went to 15 sec on a bright day with F2.8, ISO 100. Seems X1 does block the IR. The resulting image became artsy considering the camera shake with such a long exposure Regards, Igor Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
polidoc Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share #4 Posted March 4, 2010 Hi Igor, thanks for the information! 15 sec with f/2.8 is really disappointing from the IR-point of view. I managed to get IR-shots done with 1 sec and f/8 on my Canon EOS 5D and Canon cameras are in general known to be not that ideal for Infrared. But hopefully the overall image quality of the X1 will make up for it.I don't have the camera yet, but it should be shipped soon.

ivsphoto Posted March 4, 2010 Share #5 Posted March 4, 2010 Michael, I think it is not too bad - with ISO 1600 or 3200 you can get a decent result and it will be less noisy compare to IR film. By the way, I also tried R72 filter - the same result. Regards, Igor Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
polidoc Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share #6 Posted March 5, 2010 Hi Igor, yeah, that might work. I forgot, that the X1 gives also good results in ISO 1600 or even 3200. Looking forward to checking it out! Thanks and best regards Michael Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
