question
Will it leave some soft color? Or will it always look B&W? Or, was the sample image converted to B&W?Thanks,MJ
That filter only lets the infrared spectrum of light to come through and hit the sensor. And IR light is Red. So you can convert it to black and white or change the white color balance to achieve different IR color effects. You can do all this in post with programs like Photoshop or Lightroom.
