About ir.dev

I'm Zii Miller, a full-spectrum hobbyist. I built ir.dev as a resource first and foremost for myself, because it's hard to remember everything and there is no universal guide for IR photography.

What's here

Guides, how infrared works, conversions, focus, white balance, channel swaps, plus ultraviolet and full spectrum.
Filter reference, wavelengths compared, with what to buy.
Lens database, check a lens for hotspots before buying.
Tips, shooting and general photography notes.
Common questions, quick answers linking into the guides.
Gallery, example images.

Independent

ir.dev isn't a conversion service or a filter brand, so nothing here is steering you toward a product.

How facts are checked

Where a claim is technical, like wavelength ranges, filter behavior, or conversion costs, the guide lists its sources and the date it was last reviewed. Standard physics is cross-checked against references such as NASA and optics makers, and gear specifics are checked against manufacturers and conversion specialists.
