Technical Photography Filters set – v.1

Technical Photography Filters set

Technical Photography Filters Set is composed of 4 scientific filters (52 mm thread). They are essential for Technical Photography (TP) – a collection of broadband spectral images realized with a full spectrum digital camera (covering the 360-1100 nm spectral range). In our Technical Photography (TP) Training module we illustrate how to use these filters to produce technical photos such as IR (Infrared), UVF (UV Fluorescence), UVR (UV Reflected), IRFC (Infrared False Color) and IRF (IR Fluorescence). These images reveal information such as underdrawing, pentimenti and retouches. They can enhance the reading of faded documents and provide a tentative identification of pigments.

The Technical Photography Filters Set can be used with ANY full spectrum digital camera.


 Quick release adapters. Prolong life of your lenses and filters

The filters set comes with quick release adapters which make easy, safe and effortless to change filters on your lenses.  These magnetic snap-on adapters free you from the tedium of changing filters and the wearing out of the threads on the filters and on the lenses.  They do not harm the camera and the lenses, as well as the focus mechanisms, media cards, drives and other electronics.
