Full spectrum photography

Movies of ultraviolet and infrared rays were available for many decades and is used in a variety of photographic opportunities from the 1960's. Technological trends in the field of digital photography has opened a new direction in full spectrum photography, where the choice of filtering through
the initiative ultraviolet, visible and infrared to new artistic visions.
Editing digital cameras can detect some ultraviolet, all. Visible and most of the range of near infrared imaging sensors are more sensitive digital about 350 nm to 1000 nm A digital camera platform contains a filter that blocks infrared hot mirror most one bit of the infrared and other ultraviolet detection by the sensor, narrowing the acceptable range of approximately 400 nm to 700 nm. Replacing a hot plate or infrared blocking filter with an infrared pass filter or the transmission spectrum allows the camera to detect the broadest spectrum of light sensitivity greater. Without the hot mirror, the red, green and blue (or cyan, magenta and yellow) colored micro-filters placed over the sensor elements pass varying amounts of ultraviolet (blue window) and infrared (primarily red and a little less green and blue micro-filters).
