Schnedier Tru Cut UV/IR Filter

Post by snuforeo » September 12th, 2011, 4:06 am

Anyone know if the newer Schneider Tru Cut UV/IR filter effectively eliminates IR contamination in the F3 without side effects?

Any filter that cuts off near IR will have an effect on the Red end of the cameras response range as it's near impossible to have an instant frequency cut off, so I would expect a shift towards blue.

Are you having problems with IR/Near IR with the F3? I have not had any issues yet.

Thank you for the reply... literally just had my first shoot with the F3 last Fri. I will get a proper response after I've had a little time to tinker....
