That is unfortunately true, as the last image on the wiki page would suggest, but it still doesn't cut off all IR radiation. Even modern DSLR cameras come with the IR-cut filter right in front of the sensor, but cranking up the ISO and blocking the visible spectrum can still result in some nice IR images (with whatever little IR that passes through). If someone can get the night mode on the camera to work, it might turn out to be an interesting experiment ;-) > > Regards, > John > > On Mar 17, 2011, at 9:20 PM, Anish Mangal wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> Just wanted to share my attempt at low-cost IR photography with the XO-1 >> camera. >> >> http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/User:M_anish#Partial_near-IR_photography_with_the_XO_camera >> >> -- >> Anish | [email protected] >> _______________________________________________ >> IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!) >> [email protected] >> http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep > > _______________________________________________ > IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!) > [email protected] > http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep > -- Anish | [email protected] _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
