Description
This conversion service replaces the camera’s internal hot mirror filter with our high quality custom quartz glass clear filter or Schott infrared glass filter.
List of models we convert:
Sigma DP1*, DP1s*, DP1X*, DP2*, DP2s, DP2x*, DP1 Merrill, DP2 Merrill, DP3 Merrill,
* only available with the full spectrum conversion.
Because of the nature of the Foveon sensor used in these cameras, false colors can be difficult to achieve and the cameras will usually not set a white balance. The full spectrum camera will create EIR style infrared without any additional filtering or post processing.
Want a model converted that isn’t listed? Contact us.
Although we offer conversions on all these cameras, that does not mean that all cameras are created equal. Before you buy, read our REVIEWS page to see how your camera will perform once converted.
