Re: Details about my slow panned image

Will do when I get a chance.  Sounds like my teacher back in the day: ‘Just wait until you turn 20+ and all the acne will go away!’  Famous last words.

Its done all the time on accident. Does a mess to skin.  Im sure its been done on purpose a fair amount as well.

How about turning this phenomenon into something creative?  Done before?

Any ND will have issues.   You will just have polarized IR.   Unless its an IR CUT polarizer.

Thanks!  How about a polarizer?  That one is good for killing some 2 stops or so if nothing else.  Any problems there?

depends on the amount of ND  on the camera.    Once you go past .6 ND you can start to get IR haze and most things by .9ND will show IR issues in the digital world.   The funny reds are from the Ir contamination.   

"...Unlike many photographic films, the CCD or CMOS of a digital camera is inherently susceptible to infrared contamination, even when the manufacturer attempts to reduce this problem by adding 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. This results is some infrared wavelengths being allowed to pass.

While minor infrared contamination does not normally cause much of a problem for visible images, when using conventional neutral density filters especially denser grades, this issue is multiplied by the filter factor."

Curious:

I did some test shots with an ND filter (still photos on a tripod - and I believe they are a common ingredient to digital video, even built into some lenses for video) - so, where are the IR haze and funny reds coming from?

You also have to remember that ND on a digital camera will introduce a fair amount of IR haze and everything get a not very nice red.

Not sure if you can improve on this with an ND filter on a handheld shot, because it might get too blurry.  But if you do, please share the results!
I like it the way it is,
