Q. Would it be as easy as getting an infrared filter and placing it on a flashlight? Do I need a specific type of light bulb?How can this be done?Would like to use it for improving the night shot on my Sony HDR-SR11 camcorder.Thanks for any info.I am thinking of using a flashlight with 830nm.Is this ideal? Thanks for any info.
A. You can get specialist IR lights for recording bats - these have a peak output of 810nm, so 830nm should be OK. I don't know that it's "ideal" though - the "bat lights" are a compromise so as not to disturb the bats, and the cut-off for the IR detector is around 1000nm. I don't know where the peak sensitivity is, though.
I'd have thought that IR emitting LEDs would be a better option than using a filter.

Best camcorder with night shot or equivalent?
Q. I want to buy a new camcorder but one of my big requirements is for to be able to shoot at night (see in the dark) so like Sony's night shot or an equivalent. I would prefer flash but would by tape too. Also if we could keep it under $1000. The night vision is important because I am going on a wildlife camping trip.
A. I would go the sony handycam for it's nightshot , it is the only one with your budget in mind that has the things you are looking for , or get a cheap t-500 , convert the three light led's with green and blue nail polish (as seen on youtube) and get the same effect for 150US with a high definition camera
