Time to sell some items and pay taxes (and then buy new toys as the bookings begin to flow in...)
Two items I'd like to sell:
Canon 10d converted to IR. This is a fun camera that produces some really neat/fun results! (Digital IR is actually far more sensitive to the infrared spectrum than film IR, allowing for some very beautiful images)
I'm really not sure of the value of a converted 10d. It looks like straight 10d's are selling for about $325 on ebay. The cost of having a camera professionally converted to IR is $350.
Would $600 be fair? anyone interested?
Then, I have my 24mm TS/Tilt Shift lens. I bought this lens a few months back. It's really fun to shoot with, but I am constantly forgetting to use it. So I can't afford to have it sitting in my camera bag.
$950.
Drop me an email at tim at halberg photographers dot com if you're interested.

hm... I've been wanting one for a while, but was going to convert my rebel.... I'm thinking about it.

Do you have any images taken with it? You can email them to me at jessicamesser@aol.com if you don't feel like resizing and posting.

I'm thinking it was mostly overcast/cloudy for the Yosemite pictures. I wish I had time right now to cruise back and grab more pictures from weddings...

nah...its cool. I figured it was prob cloudy from the way the pix looked... I just wasn't seeing that VIVID white that you get from IR film. I'm very interested in this. I think I might just have to take you up on it.
When you had it converted did they calibrate it to a specific lens? It seems when I read up on this, you had to include the lens you intended to use on it. I know when I shot IR film, I had to use a red filter and focus differently than normal.... Do you still do this with the digital IR? If so, is the lens included?
