I am waiting to see what Nikon and Fuji have up their sleeves at Photokina in mid-September. If the D400 or the like comes then that works for me but if Fuji release the XPro2 then I may well dump almost all of my Nikon gear and go Fuji. To do that the XPro2 will need to have even better AF than the XT1 or as good AF speed as my Nikon D300 or D3 and also be 20-24MP, the XPro1 will then be converted to IR.

100% Crop in PS. Please bear in mind this image has been reduced in size by the forum software by about 50%. I haven't done side by side but I think the IR conversion has increased the D200 sharpness due the absence of an anti-aliasing filter. Cows legs (Top left) just defined on my screen at about three miles seems pretty good to me. Attachment: Oakdale IR 100% Crop.jpg (Downloaded 58 times)

Thanks Eric, another tip for my edufication! I rarely, if ever, touch the tint settings in Lightroom (usually a last resort when all else fails!!!) but I will give it a try next time. I have often wondered about varying the channel swap slightly to influence the final tones especially the sky. Perhaps my Victoria sponge of layers needs the channels switching slightly differently for each layer. Bit more blue for the sky etc... Just to help things along.

Sorry forgot to mention my starting point. I found that starting from the default d200 settings left the converted image more in the cyan/ green area of blue as the starting (opposite) colour is this slightly red/magenta hue. By shifting the tint closer to yellow you are instead starting from the complimentary colour of blue. The interesting thing is that you don't actually need to calibrate the camera WB. If you just shoot on auto...then set the temperature to 2000 and the tint to -80 it should give you same result. I just remembered this discovery.... I should do this on Fuji!!!!!!!!!!! ![]()

What was the replacement filter that was fitted to the D200 ? The RAW rendering looks different to the images from my D70 (720nm filter fitted) which seems to produce a browner result SOOC. Was it 720, 660, 590 nm or some other?
