I uploaded a few videos on YouTube....

by
...Of some infrared & ultraviolet filter tests on my still-unmodified Nikon D3100 DSLR-- My first YouTube video uploads!

You can find them here: https://www.youtube.com/user/dmfalk/videos

They're each about a minute long.

I had some issues focusing (mostly with the UV videos, as I was focusing manually), so there's some fuzziness... And I don't have them custom white-balanced to look like some of the better videos out there....

I would particularly like to do as good as this (IR) and this (UV), if I can get my camera converted to full-spectrum (with results like this and this), but I need to raise US$300 to have it done.

So far, I've raised $0.

If you would like to help me towards my goal (and have the means for it) I have PayPal available from my donation link, here. (I'm willing to discuss other means.)

This is my dream.

(Why? I got into this because I was born blind due to cataracts, removed-- Because the eyes' lenses are natural UV filters, I can see UV while most can't, which kinda makes things funky-coloured, if my glasses don't have UV coating on them... :P Which inspired me to pursue seeing the world through light most can't see- UV and IR. The IR used here is not the heat-type of IR, but the upper part of the IR spectrum just below red, and thus is sometimes called "near", "reflective" or as I prefer, "refractive". A digital camera has sensitivity to IR, visible and UV, but comes built with a UV/IR-cut filter, so it can only shoot in the visible spectrum. That can be removed, withe filter being replaced for IR, UV both or full-spectrum. I'm aiming for full-spectrum, which means money to do the conversion, money to send the camera, and money for an external UV/IR-cut filter, which I don't have yet. The total cost is about $300, and the service would be done by an outfit called Kolari Vision.)

Saw that.

Anyhoo, the videos are just up to what I want to do just yet, since I'm fighting the damn camera filter (hence the need to get it modified), and I hope to do A LOT better once it is.

Oh, and I scored a copy of "Touch of DMP II" the other day... :) Finally, after 25 years! :)

NICE! :D Off eBay? :) I sampled "On The Avenue" by Flim & The BB's from that CD a while back. I'll post that mix shortly.

So, basically, surgery gave you superpowers? :o

Nope- just a "slightly" greater colour perception. (I'm not colourblind at all.) With thick glasses to replace the missing lenses, my vision's only 20/80. :P

(And only one eye works, anyway. :P )

Dang.  I guess Igor was out of laser shooting eyeballs. :p
