The 138mm T1 Infrared Filter from Tiffen is a high-tech filter targeted towards eliminating infrared contamination at 680nm. This filter will assist you in maintaining your color spectrum when shooting against a dark fabric. You will notice the blacks turn out true with no color cast from the red end of the spectrum.

This filter has been created to help capture a much broader spectrum of color than previous infrared filters - particularly with digital camcorders.  Color shift is a critical factor in digital photography especially when dealing with the infrared spectrum - and even more important when shooting with HD technology.
Unlike traditional film cameras, CCD or CMOS sensors of a digital camera are, by nature, susceptible to infrared contamination. Manufacturers try to avoid this problem by incorporating an infrared absorbing filter on top of the image sensor. Because these filters do not have a sharp cutoff at the infrared wavelengths there has to be a compromise in order not to exclude visible red wavelengths. Despite these precautions, some infrared wavelengths pass through resulting in contamination of the image.

Tiffen's Water White glass, using their ColorCore Technology, is characterized by a high transmission quality. Typically, it will transmit 98-99% of the light. It also features an anti-glare and anti-reflective quality that makes it useful in a wide range of uses including the movie theater industry, store and art displays. The glass is virtually defect-free and is becoming more and more prevalent in digital equipment.

Removes Infrared From CMOS/CCD Sensors    Provides a Broader Spectrum of Color    Captures More Subtle Red Hues    Blacks Appear Crisper    Anti-Glare / Anti-Reflective Quality    Can Be Used With Neutral Density Filters    Allows Use of Heavier Density ND Filters    Water White Glass    Made in the USA

Helps eliminate the red contamination on dark products and fabrics

Good for digital photography

Can be used at all times with most digital cameras

Tiffen's ColorCore technology is produced through a process that entails permanently laminating the filter material in between two pieces of optical glass that are ground flat to tolerances of a ten-thousandth of an inch, then mounting them in precision aluminum rings

Q: 3. Is the ML-L3 compatible with the D800?

A: No it is not compatible with the D800.

Q: 4. Will this fit a gfx50r?

A: I'm sorry, no, I don't believe there is a replacement eyecup for the 50R, the 50S, yes, but not the R.

Q: 5. Does this battery grip fit the X-T3?

A: Unfortunately, the BG-F1 does not fit the X-T3. The proper battery grip is the FUJIFILM VG-XT3 Vertical Battery Grip, B&H # FUXT3VBG. https://bhpho.to/34dWxDb

Q: 6. will this fit an xt-20?

A: I do not think it will fit, however, there is a short video on you tube by Bjorn Sozumschein of an ocular adapter that may have been made by him. Look under T-T20 eyecup. Hope this helps.

Q: 7. Does a battery need to be in the camera in order to function?

A: No you do not have to have a battery in the body in order for this grip to function.

Q: 8. Will this work with the D500?

A: The Nikon ML-L3 Wireless Remote Control (Infrared) is not compatible with the Nikon D500. You cannot use any IR remote. The Vello FreeWave Plus Wireless Remote Shutter Release for Nikon is a compatible radio remote. This one has a 320' range and you do not need to be in line of sight. Here is the link: https://bhpho.to/3xZMbGO

Q: 9. How well does this work in bright sunlight? I would be concerned IR doesn't do well in that case. Also it can not be directly in front or behind, it will be from arms length away from one side. (Camera helmet mounted)thanks,mk

A: Infrared remotes may be affected by bright, direct sunlight depending on the angle the remote is being pointed in relation to the camera. Your best bet is to go with a remote with radio connectivity, such as the Vello FreeWave Fusion: http://bhpho.to/1g8dSNu

Q: 10. Does this fit on the Fujifulm X-T30?

A: Unfortunately this grip is not compatible with the Fuji XT30.
