Thanks Alan and Dave. This was a major update to Lightroom that included
super resolution (they call it enhancement) that uses artificial
intelligence to boost the resolution of the image. For example, a K1 file
boosts to 144mp with no apparent quality loss via artifacting, and a raft
of presets, a couple of dozen or so.
The enhancement was included in camera Raw last month for Photoshop, and
found its way into Lightroom on this month's update.
I suspect to get the look of old school craptastic B infrared film  one
could run a couple of presets. I suspect there is one that can add stupid
amounts of pseudo grain to an image.
I think with the IR emulation, people forget that infrared response is as
predictable as the response for visible light.
Converting a camera to IR is not likely going to give a significantly
different look than using a computer to emulate the spectral response. It
just ruins a perfectly good camera for any other purpose.

I do miss Ektachrome Infrared. I had a lot of fun with that stuff.

Looks pretty good to me. Perhaps shooting the original at high ISO would 
lead to a more grainy conversion? I had a look at the presets in my 
older version of DXO but no IR there.

This is a one button conversion to infrared. To me it isn't grainy 
enough, but the only time I shot infrared was Kodak's 35mm IR film in 
the late 1970s or so. The stuff had ping pong ball granularity.

Other than that, it seems like a pretty decent emulation.

This is a rather boring scene from my outing with the granddaughter last 
Sunday.
Lightroom just added a whole bunch of canned presets in the latest 
updates, including an infrared one.


This is a one button conversion to infrared. To me it isn't grainy 
enough, but the only time I shot infrared was Kodak's 35mm IR film in 
the late 1970s or so. The stuff had ping pong ball granularity.

Other than that, it seems like a pretty decent emulation.
