Kolari 850nm Infrared Lens Filter

Capture high-contrast B&W infrared landscapes with white foliage, black skies, and exceptional sharpness.

Beanie Young (850nm)

Explore the world of B+W Infrared with the Kolari 850nm filter. | The 850nm IR filter creates the classic high-contrast B+W IR effect, resembling traditional B&W IR film. It will produce bright whites and pronounced dark tones. With a custom white balance in camera, the picture is close to pure B&W without any processing. | With Kolari Vision’s precision engineering and superior optical quality, you can achieve exceptional clarity and detail in every shot. |

This filter requires a full-spectrum converted camera, or an infrared camera converted to a lower wavelength, such as the 550, 590, 665, or 720, to produce the desired visual effect.

Uncoated glass, like in our standard IR filters, has a reflection of around 7.7% at all wavelengths (about 4% when the light enters the glass, and another 4% when the light exits the glass). For our Pro Gen 3 IR filters, we developed an IR centered anti-reflective coating that reduced the ~7.7% reflection down to <0.4% on average over the IR band, reducing ghosting and glare while increasing overall transmission from 90% to 98%. We also topped our Gen 3 filters with a hydrophobic anti-smudge scratch resistant coating to increase durability and make cleaning easy.

We understand that post-processing IR images can be challenging at first but don’t worry, we have many resources and tutorials available for IR photographers. Here are a few of our most popular IR post-processing resources below:

how to find filter thread size
Finding the Right Filter Size for Your Lens
Before placing your order, please double-check your lens’s filter thread size, not your camera model or lens focal length. The correct filter size is usually printed on the front or side of the lens, or underneath the lens cap. Look for a number next to the diameter symbol (ø), such as ø77mm—this is the size of the filter you need. Important: Your lens’s focal length (e.g., 70–200mm) is not the same as the filter thread size.

Some delivery addresses are classified by DHL as remote areas. These are locations that are farther away from major cities or standard delivery routes, such as rural towns, islands, or hard-to-reach regions.

Because of the extra time and cost required to deliver there, DHL applies a Remote Area Surcharge (RAS).

With our shipping calculator, these surcharges are now shown before you place your order.

If your address is flagged as a remote area, we recommend checking whether you have an alternative address (such as a workplace or a friend/family member’s address) that is not on DHL’s remote area list. This can help you avoid the surcharge.

You can verify whether an address is in a remote area by checking DHL’s current list of postal codes:
