Flowers in sunshine with ZB2 and s8612


Recommended Posts

After looking at some graphs I know that the difference in image colours between BG3 2 mm and BG3 1.5mm is that the thinner filter gives a slightly more green tone in the fields coming out as green, less dark bluegreen.

I see an even more pronounced effect of this with my BG25 2mm stack.

 

Compare the position of the down slopes between 400nm and 500nm

for BG3 2mm, BG3 1.5mm, BG25 2mm, BG25 1.5mm

I have the 2mm versions of those filters and might want the 1.5mm version(s) too in the future

 

The image is borrowed from Cadmium's eBay page for BG25. I hope that is OK.

This is all very helpful information, thank you, I see what you mean Ulf ref. the gradients and filters. I'm not wanting IR contamination at the moment, so will stick to Cadmium's S8612 2mm for the time being. The BG25 looks a good one to try out as well sometime.

 

Here is another shot with the ZB2 /s8162 with the 28mm series E.

Blue bells, the "yellow flowers" are those being hit by the dappled sunshine, quite an interesting area for Bees and Hymenoptera. "White balanced with my card in the shade".

Zb1 is like BG25. So its a cheap alternative.

I have genuine BG12 in 1.5mm, 3mm and 5mm and I should compare it to my ZB1 to see how they look. These are all kind of similar with much less IR than BG3.
