Nikon 1 IR

A few images around the cottage we're staying at the moment.
The 1st and 3rd have swapped red & blue channels.
The 2nd and 4th are B&W

Nikon V1 converted to IR (720nm) and 6.7-13mm

I like the first one very much, everything falls in place for me: the scene, the light, even the flaws obviously due to the lens contribute. The corners are quite unsharp or distorted, is that to be expected with this lens in the visible spectrum as well?

I also enjoy my IR converted V1, and the lack of ultrawide lens in my bag leads me to stitching many shots from the 10-30 kit lens... Your system looks so much more convenient!

The 6.7-13 zoom should be sharp across the frame in visible light. At least my copy of it performs in this manner.

A lot of lenses behave differently in IR from what they do in visible light, so be prepared for all kinds of surprises, bad as well as good ones. In fact, some lenses that are at best moderately good in visible light can be excellent in IR. One just has to try as these aspects are a little unpredictable.

Chris, the first one is really nice, but the rest aren't that bad either.

Thanks, it probably my processing skills (or lack of).
Normally my 6.7-13 is sharp (as Bjorn stated).
The last one looks pretty sharp to me.

Chris, it is really on the borders, not at the center: look at the right side of the last image.
It doesn't bother me actually (IR is so unusual anyway) but it is present.

Some very interesting photos!
