We can modify this camera to be IR+Visible+UV, High-Red, IR-Only, High Resolution (HR) and UV-Only.
 | IR+Visible+UV: Camera seee everything the sensor is cable of seeing. Camera will see some UV, the entire visible range and infrared from 715nm to 1200nm. |
| High-Red |
665nm: Camera will see from 665nm to 1200nm. Red channel will see visible red and infrared. Blue and green channels will only see infrared.
590nm: Camera will see from 590nm to 1200nm. Red channel will see visible red and infrared. Green channel will see come visible green and infrared. Blue channel will only see infrared.
| IR-Only |
715nm: All channels only see infrared. The red channel is the most open to the IR and contains somewhat different information than the blue and green channels allowing for some creative color effects such as red-blue channel swapping to get deep blue skies. A 715nm converted camera sees about the same amount of light as a stock camera so apertures and shutter are similar to a stock camera. 715nm is similar to a Hoya RM72 or Wratten 89B.
830nm: All channels only see infrared. Camera loses about 2 stops of exposure. Once you equalize color levels, picture will be almost completely black and white. The infrared effect is more intense at 830nm - skies are darker, clouds whiter and you see further through smoke and haze.
| UV Only:: Camera will only see UV light. We recommend focusing using the Live View feature. A lens such as the Jenoptik 60mm APO lens works well with this conversion. |
Note: 18-55mm lens is included.
The Nikon D3000 is a prosumer digital SLR camera. Because of the nature of the IR enabling modification, we do not recommend this camera to anyone who does not fully understand the implications of the modification. This camera offers great IR sensitivity, dynamic range and low noise.
We can modify this camera to be IR+Visible+UV, IR-Only and High Resolution (HR) . An IR+Visible+UV camera will see both Infrared, Ultraviolet and Visible light after modification. An IR-Only camera will only see IR from 715nm through 1200nm. The IR-Only camera has an internal 715nm IR filter with an antiflection coating. The 715nm filter performs similarly to the Hoya RM72 and Wratten 89B.
Please note that this model does not have a drive motor to autofocus lenses. You need to make sure you are using a AF-S or AF-I CPU type lens which have autofocus motors built in.
