Colour Codes
Here are some demonstrations some examples taken with two standard prime lenses that score quite differing levels of infrared hotspot - using the same scene. The two lenses were chosen using the results from these pages. Each two images were taken using the same settings (aperture, shutter & ISO) on the same camera (Sony A7) with the same filter (B+W 093 - 830nm).
