Free Action Set for Faux Infrared

[gmitchel]

Want to experiment with the B&W infrared look but don't own a digital camera compatible with infrared photography? You're not alone. Expensive DSLRs and digicams have a powerful IR blocking filter to reduce moiré artifacts. In many cases, this filter is so powerful, IR photography is impossible or impractical.

I've been experimenting with different techniques for simulating digital infrared. The result of my research is the TLR Faux Infrared action set.

There are 21 different actions in TLR Faux Infrared. Portraits and landscapes typically require different conversions with the Channel Mixer command. Portraits make heavy use of the Red channel, landscapes of the Green channel. You can choose five different settings for each, with low grain and high grain options to simulate Kodak and Konica films. There is also a Manual action that you can tweak.

This is a free download to everyone!
