Notes & Caveats
Your Dragon will require the latest ‘swappable OLPF’ upgrade to have been installed. We recommend choosing the IR calibration in conjunction with this filter. Earlier firmware users, please use the LLO cal.
Expect to see false colour and to work the image hard in Redcine-X to develop your look, including heavy curves, inverting and transposing channels etc. Mono or Duo-tone images are often most attractive.
With original DSMC cameras this filter has no ‘low-pass’ function. The image will be as sharp as your lens and sensor can resolve in combination. On a standard colour Dragon, you may see aliasing in extremely high frequency detail. Monochrome Dragon is immune to this in almost all situations.
This filter transmits a wider range of wavelengths than any single lens is designed to accommodate at one time. Near-IR focus will be different from visible focus, potentially resulting in split or haloed focus. For best results you must filter at the front of the lens with colour or IR glass to choose the part of the spectrum you want to work in. Mixed sources of light can also show up the same focus issue.
Not all lenses perform equally in IR. Some will exhibit hotspots (if this is an issue, watch out for our upcoming IR-only filter), some will have internal reflection and flare issues, and some very modern lenses may appear darker than expected in IR due to their sophisticated coatings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Shipping
The standard flat rate worldwide shipping we offer is via the UK Royal Mail. The International Tracked and Signed service partners with the national carrier in the delivery country for cost effective tracked delivery. In Europe 3-5 working days and worldwide 5 to 7 working days are required for delivery. We insure the packages in transit independently, and the on-time delivery success rate is over 95%.
We are happy to ship via Fedex or similar when necessary. Contact us via email with your order number to establish cost and shipping time.
It is cheaper in most cases for us to ship and pass the cost on directly, than to use a customer’s shipping account, due to the relative cost for export vs. import shipping, and due to insurance requirements – we insure independently to reduce shipping cost.
Please refer to your customer account and notification emails for a tracking number. In some cases packages that cannot be delivered during working hours are held by a local delivery office, pending customer response to a letter that is posted to them. This can greatly slow down the process – please check your tracking number regularly and contact us if you have queries. Once a parcel reaches its destination country, detailed tracking is taken on by the national postal service rather than Royal Mail.
