SOLD: Sony Full Spectrum (IR/Infrared) modified DSC-F828 ONLY $400!! - 02-02-2010, 12:21 PM


Well, the Pres just killed the Constellation Program, and with it my job. As a result I am going to start selling off some of my photo gear, hopefully not having to part with my main equipment just yet.

First up is a full spectrum modified Sony DSC-F828. This camera can shoot full specturm, which means if you put the INCLUDED IR filter on it, you will get Infrared photos and normal photo speeds. Since it is a EVF or LCD camera, what you see is what you get. If you put a hot mirror filter on it (NOT INCLUDED) yuo can use it like a normal camera. Best of all IT SHOOTS RAW and can be edited in most any RAW software. I ran some through Photoshop Elements 5 and it worked.

Good:
Lens is flawless
IR capable and has an included filter
Battery, Strap, Cables etc included
RAW capable
Uses CF or MS

Bad:
RAW write speed is about 8 seconds per RAW
The little lever that holds the battery in place is broken, but it stays put when you close the cover with no issues.

PRICE: $450

NOW $400

DPreview Review
Luminous Landscape Review

More gear to follow soon.

Thanks. The new budget seems to be meeting with some resistance so we'll see what happens.

Looks like a great Camera...$400.00 is a steal...since the mod..usually costs about $300...good luck...!!!

One last bump attempt.

Full-spectrum, IR ready, RAW capable, SD video capable, Zeiss optic, CF or MS camera. Ready to rock for $400.

Okay, one last ditch effort before I try elsewhere.

Some people have done their own. This one I bought pre-coverted and my A100 I sent to Precision in CT to get converted.
