Nikon D70s: 6.1 MegaPixel Prosumerl Infrared-Enabled Camera
Models:
XNiteNikonD70 IR+Visible
XNiteNikonD70IR IR-Only
XNiteNikonD70HR Visible Hot Rod
The Nikon D70 is a semi-professional digital SLR camera. Because of the nature of the IR enabling modification, we do not recommend this camera to anyone who does not fully understand the implications of the modification. This camera offers great IR sensitivity, dynamic range and low noise.
We can modify this camera to be IR+Visible, IR-Only and Visible Hot Rod. An IR+Visible camera will see both Infrared and Visible light after modification. An IR-Only camera will only see IR from 715nm through 1200nm. The IR-Only camera has an internal 715nm IR filter with an antiflection coating. The 715nm filter performs similarly to the Hoya RM72 and Wratten 89B.
A Visible Hot-Rod camera will maximize the resolution and color depth of the camera at the expense of possible moire pattens. Please see more about this conversion here.
