DISCONTINUED. This model has been replaced by the Nikon

Rod
The Nikon D80 is a 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
or 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.
