Hi bros,

juz curious.

which of the modified nikon camera is a better?
not referring to the specification of the cameras,
but more of the sensitivity to IR and the exposure duration.
 

Since the hot mirror will be removed, it does not matter (as far as i know).

I would choose the one with the best noise performance instead, I would go for the D50 as it has better noise performance and larger LCD than the D70. D40 does not have AF motor thus it is out for me.
 

Yeah bro silvergetz is right in his preference for his converted D50 with HOYA R72.

His IR photogs are in http://www.clubsnap.com/forums/showthread.php?t=672121

Well, I prefer my D70 also converted with HOYA R72. You can see my IR photogs already posted in this forum.

I like D70 becoz i prefer to use CF cards, like it's small LCD screen, and it's old technology image sensor - CCD sensor.

BTW, someone is selling his converted D50-IR at http://www.clubsnap.com/forums/showthread.php?t=673307

You gotta hurry get it before it's gone :cool:
 

haha, juz finish my exam. feel so out of the world after not taking photos for so long.

super nice picture u guys have loh!! i shall ask n c if the D50mod is still available. thanks guys!!
 

I don't like the D70 because of small screen :(
Unfortunately being a newbie, taking IR photos really requires on-the-spot pixel peeping which I am unable to do.

I also prefer SD card to CF. Had to get a CF specially for this after I modded a 2nd hand cam which I bought from BnS. On the other hand, I already have a number of good quality spare SD :rolleyes:

Just some points that apply to me, I guess.
 

Hi brothers, Any one knows where can I send my D70 for modding ,for IR photography?My contact is 91775717,name Eddie.Either PM me or msg.Thanks
