I'm easily amused, but am fascinated by biofluorescence. Had converted a dslr to full spectrum for UW photography here in Cozumel (I promptly drowned it). It's a whole new experience seeing the reef in a way I hadn't before.I'm sensing sarcasm...
Oh man, ... sorry!(I promptly drowned it).
So, the yellow filter wasn't sarcasm?
Oh man, ... sorry!
Edit: I have a good enough idea what a full spectrum converted camera does (and at rare times use one at work), but maybe not that a good of an idea:
Why did you do the conversion for flourophptography?
(Genuinely curious, explaining why I am asking while asking... not trying to be right and very likely not knowing better at all)
Would‘t you not want to exclude the UV & blue end of the spectrum to see the fluorescing response better and would‘t the yellow filter do that even on a full conversion?
Or are you expecting a fluorescing response reaching all the way into the IR spectrum?
