This conversion service replaces the cameras internal hot mirror filter with our high-quality custom manufactured glass replacement infrared or clear filter. The autofocus systems are calibrated to the Pentax kit 18-55mm lens. This calibration results in general focus accuracy for most lenses from 18-300mm. You can also send your own lens to be calibrated to instead at no additional charge. Note, ultra wide angle lenses need special calibration. If calibrating to an ultra wide angle lens the autofocus will not work with telephoto lenses.

Focus Calibration Information:
Please note that on mirrorless cameras, we calibrate the camera to focus universally with all lenses. For DLSR camera’s our post-conversion focus calibration is set to 50mm, and will generally focus well with most lenses between 20mm – 300mm. If you are sending in a DSLR for conversion and plan on using lenses outside this range, or using one specific lens, you may want to include this lens with the camera so we can calibrate the camera to it specifically. If you have any concerns regarding lenses and your DLSR camera; please reach out to our customer service team before shipping the DSLR to us.

Frank Marek –
Just got my Pentax k5 back with full spectrum conversion. In short, it is wonderful. Autofocus works, vibrant photos with ir filter, real life colors with hot mirror filter, and the sensitivity I need for astrophotography. I am going to recommend Kolari Vision to anyone seeking a first class camera mod!
Stephanie Banks –
I contacted Kolari Vision to explore the possibility of converting my Pentax K50 to infrared. In the process, representatives from Kolari Vision communicated with me, as needed, regarding the price, additional components I requested, and valuable information about how to use a couple of functions with the camera, post conversion. Their responses were always timely, expert and professional. An official warranty and Certificate of Authenticity accompanied the camera, which provide assurance and confidence in their work. I would not hesitate to recommend Kolari Vision to other photographers.
