Complete Guide to Digital Infrared Photography (Invisible Light Photography) (Tatsuoki Takeda) [PDF]

https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Digital-Infrared-Photography-Invisible-ebook/dp/B01CSTBVGC



The “infrared photography” is the photography to take a photograph by the “invisible” infrared light included in the solar light. In an infrared photograph we find a different sight from the familiarized sight we see commonly with our naked eyes.

By the way, after we began to use a digital camera it becomes extremely easy to take an infrared photograph (DIP: digital infrared photography) in comparison with the previous infrared photography by an analogue camera. This book describes the fundamentals of the infrared photography, the method to take an infrared photograph by using a digital camera, the post-processing method to make the photograph more attractive. And, moreover, various infrared photographs taken and post-processed by the author are placed, to develop readers’ understanding of the infrared photography.

For the infrared photography the post-processing is very important. Therefore, the methods to post-process an infrared photograph by using the “Photoshop CS (pay-ware)” and the “GIMP 2 (free ware)” are concretely explained.

As a camera to take an infrared photograph it is more desirable to convert a conventional camera by removing an infrared-cut filter in front of a sensor of the camera. However, anyone can take an infrared photograph by a conventional non-converted camera by preparing a visible-cut, infrared-transparent filter, if a certain condition on the sensitivity to the infrared light is satisfied.

The detailed contents of this book is as follows.
