For Sale: Fully Infrared (IR) Enabled Sony DSC-F717 Digital Camera

This incredible camera can be used for super high resolution REGULAR as well as INFRARED (IR) photography. Externally, there are no visual changes. Internally, the optics have been modified (by MaxMax.com) so that the camera can see from 330nm to 1200nm versus a stock camera which can see from about 380nm to 750nm.

The camera can be used both for X-Ray photography:

Or Landscape IR Photography (which is what I use it for):
http://www.pbase.com/luben/infrared

The camera is second-hand, but in PERFECT working order. It is 1 ½ years old and has taken 6700 exposures.

It is in ‘very good' condition with a few minor usage marks on the body, but NO knocks or dents. Please see photos of the camera and all other items on this Auction at this link:

If you are not familiar with the camera, here are brief camera specs :
http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Sony/sony_dscf717.asp

Special Note: This modified camera must use XNite-CC1 colour correction filter (included) for normal (non-IR) pictures and a IR-pass filter (such as Hoya R72, XNite-630, XNite-850 or XNite-1000 – all also included) for infrared photography. This modified camera is sensitive to both IR and visible light. If you take pictures with no filters, the camera will see both the IR light and visible light which will alter the correct colour balance. To take normal pictures, use the camera with a XNite-CC1 filter to block IR and pass visible. Please see example pictures on colour balance here:
