B+W 1102782 67mm Basic IR 093 Black Filter

The B+W 67mm Basic IR 093 is an infrared pass filter that blocks virtually all visible light, transmitting only infrared wavelengths beginning at approximately 830nm. When mounted on a camera, it creates the signature IR photography effect: green foliage renders as bright white, blue skies turn dramatically dark, and landscapes take on an otherworldly, high-contrast quality. The filter appears completely opaque to the human eye, which means all framing and focusing must be done before the filter is attached — or through live view on cameras with sufficient IR sensor sensitivity.

Built with B+W's glass optics and housed in a black knurled metal ring sized at 67mm, the filter threads securely onto compatible lenses and provides a textured edge for easy installation and removal. B+W rates it as compatible with full-frame format lenses down to 24mm without introducing vignetting. For photographers using unmodified digital cameras, expect exposure times to increase substantially — often into the multi-second range — since the camera's built-in IR-cut filter blocks most of the wavelengths this filter passes. Those with IR-converted camera bodies will achieve faster shutter speeds and stronger results. Each filter ships with a QR code for authenticity verification and eco-friendly packaging.
