I have a 183 degree fisheye. You can banish haze by shooting in IR. Hmmmm. I
have an IR-modified digicam that the fisheye should fit. Otherwise, I'd need to
come up with a 28mm IR filter to screw behind the fisheye or an improbable
one (maybe a big sheet of Wratten 87C) in front.

"Improbable" sounds like an understatement there; behind sounds more more practical. I have to think about how the scene would look in monochrome (if I shoot IR film). Does your digicam do IR as monochrome or as false-colour?

Hmm. I'm gonna have to shoot the skyline at night in IR in a few directions and see how it looks in IR without the fireworks, for clues.

By the way, were you aware of this very Spammish-seeming holiday (http://bamber.blogspot.com/2005/07/today-is-international-kissing-day.html) coming up tomorrow?

If I used flexible filter material, it should be doable.


The colour filters on the sensor are still there, but their IR response doesn't
vary a lot, so there is a little colour information, but not much.


I should post about International Kissing Day!
