description: Infrared photography can provide unique and flattering portraits, eye-catching close-ups of flowers, travel photographs unlike any you've ever seen before, and, if you know a few tricks, a new perspective on sports photography. You may have seen infrared photos without even being aware that they are infrared images! This full-color, hands-on book includes numerous do-it-yourself tutorials that show you how to convert your existing camera for IR use. You'll learn how to take infrared photos with both snapshot cameras and digital SLRs using a full range of shutter speeds and lens openings. You'll be amazed to learn that many cameras, including dSLRs and consumer cameras like Canon PowerShot and Nikon CoolPix models, can be converted to shoot infrared photos full-time.The only things you need are your camera, an IR filter (you don't need a costly IR filter - you'll learn how to make your own!) and an image editor capable of channel swapping, such as Photoshop, Photoshop CC, ACDSee Pro, or The Gimp (which is available for free for Windows, Mac, and Linux users.)  Digital Infrared Pro Secrets will help you blow the lid off of IR photography!
