Product Description
With this conversion service we will replace the internal hot mirror filter with a high quality custom made infrared glass filter. This will allow your camera to capture infrared light instead of visible light. After IR conversion you won’t need any filters in front of the lens and the camera will be just as sensitive to infrared as it was to visible light. This means you can hand hold and compose normally.
We also calibrate the camera to accurately focus infrared light, according to your ordered calibration choice.
Our most popular infrared filter is the Super Color IR due to its versatility in allowing stunning color and monochrome infrared images but it does require some Photoshop post production.
Our most popular focus calibration choices are Universal and Custom, depending on user preference and camera Live View AF capability.
If you are unsure of the choices for IR filter or IR focus calibration please be sure to go through the Start Here section. It should give you everything you need but if you find you still have questions please feel free to contact us by phone or email, we are always happy to help.
Our 1 year warranty is included on conversion services and installed IR filters.
After you place your order you will receive an email with instructions on how to send us your camera.

I have had two Panasonic mirrorless cameras converted, one to “super-color” and one to “standard IR.” Both were done fast and expertly, and the results from them are outstanding. Two infrared photographs from these systems have won prizes in juried competitions. Of course I take my share of the credit, but the high quality of the infrared images means LifePixel gets its share as well. I will do business with LifePixel again as I update my equipment.

I had my GF1 converted recently. I purchased the Super Blue filter. This is the second IR camera I have owned (the other being a Nikon D70s). I am enjoying shooting in both B&W and color. The only issue so far has been how to adjust WB, since I like to shoot RAW images. This was easily solved by setting custom WB for the current lighting every time I shot. This allows me to post process my images in Photoshop. I am loving this camera and take it with me all the time.

This is my first Panasonic camera conversion, I’ve had 2 LifePixel Nikon DSLR conversions in the past. I wanted a smaller IR camera so I could take it everywhere. I do take my GX7 IR with me 90% of the time. The image quality is excellent and I don’t have to worry about which lens I use.
