Camera SLR Lenses

This video addresses one of the problems you might run into when using the film/night vision DIY IR camera method. That problem is how to film in bright sunlight without the video being all washed out and void of any detail. One solution is to use the film canister method, which is really quite simple: 1) Get a hold of a film canister. If you don't have one go to Walmart and ask someone at the photo lab for one. Get one with a black bottom and grey cover. You'll only need the cover. 2) Drill a hole right in the center of the canister cover. You can experiment with the size of the hole, but 1/8 inch seems to work okay. 3) Place the canister cover over the lens of your video camera. This will fit very nicely over most of the slightly older models, and will be good enough on the newer ones. 4) When you look into the viewfinder/lcd display you will notice blackness surrounding a circular area where you are shooting at. Zoom in until there is no longer blackness in the corners. 5) You are now ready to shoot. You will notice that you are able to get much better footage with greater detail and it isn't anywhere near as bright. Thank you. Please 'Like', comment, and SUBSCRIBE! Thank you!
