C-3000Z with the almost-infrared Wratten #70

The Wratten #70 filter (the one I have is of the old, East-German make) cuts the light off at about 40 nanometers below the cut-off of the #89B. This does not seem like much, but is enough for the white foliage effect to disappear, although the results are also quite pleasing.

More importantly, the exposure factor I measured with this filter on the C-3000Z was consistently close to 130x (7 EV), so that I could often get away without a tripod.

I still occasionally shoot with the #70, if not for the typical IR effect, then for the almost-black sky and pleasing tonality.

Here are some examples, just the final results after desaturation and tonal adjustment. (The images are clickable.)
