Tried it yesterday and it's definitely an upgrade. One question: Are the new modes included in the "auto" menu choice? I know it's slower, but I still use it when shooting surfing where the occasional pelican floats by...

Good Job.
If I didn't know better I might have thought the boats were going at a breakneck speed and the plane floating in the air.

...funny how panning can create a strange and wonderful look, eh?

I use Rob Shea's actions. Try them, they work great.
Rob has a lot of info on his site and his youtube site

I've used his stuff before and have been checking his vids for a couple of years. I've been shooting IR for 14 years and it never gets "comfortable" (I'm on my 4th conversion) but I think that's the fun of it!

IR gives shades of gray which can be turned into false color. "False color displays a graphic representation of the brightness range in an image."

Any plugin compatable for PSPro out there?

...so, how would one use a false color display shooting IR? This is very interesting!

...managed to get to the Huntington Beach Airshow last Sunday. Using my newer 180-600 Z lens coupled with the 1.4 TC...so rocking 840mm. In retrospect, maybe a little much, especially when I'm trying to use slow shutter for panning the propeller-driven aircraft, haha. Well, I'm not done processing yet, but did have at least *one* panning success...whew...

After using it and looking at the results in post, you are right in your observations. Funny enough, though, I step on these files so much in PS, the limitations are not so evident...though softness is for sure. But if I create a piece and hang it on a wall, well, very few would geek to our extant, eh? ;0)

Did you use false colors for shades of gray?

I dunno, lol, but it works much better than the LR option(s) I've tried (ie. creating different camera profiles, etc). There are many variations you can leaf through also. I end up in LR, though, and just continue my processing as "normal." I took maybe 50 shots this day and ended up with 16 to play with, objective being a different look for each...so far so good!

Nice sunny day at the LA Arboretum...shot with my full spectrum A7 and a reletively cheeeep adjustable filter; it says 530nm to 790nm, so I put it somewhere in the middle, lol. These two are roughly the same place, just different angles and, of course, liberal processing. I've started using ON1 for my initial processing, then taking the results into LR/PS to finish. These files were too big so I resized...
