Improving the optics of the Tri-Aerochrome Film Filter

I was quite surprised that my idea of using a 3D film camera with infrared film and a custom filter worked so well in creating an Aerochrome-like image. The basis of the idea can be found in my previous post below. https://teaandtechtime.com/an-analog-aerochrome-film-replacement/ But there were still problems I wanted to solve, the first being the… Continue reading Improving the optics of the Tri-Aerochrome Film Filter

Converting a Digital Camera to Take Infrared Aerochrome Images

Always chasing the beautiful colors of the elusive Aerochrome film I dived into the art of infrared photography. It is one of the many niche areas of photography, infrared photography can produce images that are almost otherworldly. This is because infrared light is invisible to the human eye, making the resulting images alien to our… Continue reading Converting a Digital Camera to Take Infrared Aerochrome Images

An Analog Aerochrome Film Replacement

In a few previous projects, I investigated ways to create images that look like the famous Kodak Aerochrome infrared film. As a film stock that is just not available anymore, we must look for ways to re-create it in creative ways. The color swap method gets easily confused on things that are green but not… Continue reading An Analog Aerochrome Film Replacement

Emulating Kodak Aerochrome Infrared Film with Python Image Processing

What is Aerochrome film? It is an analog film stock that is sensitive to infrared light and uses false-color reversal to express infrared light as a visible color. Infrared (IR) light is invisible to the human eye but is all around us and be felt as heat. All objects in the universe emit some level… Continue reading Emulating Kodak Aerochrome Infrared Film with Python Image Processing
