Hi,
I shot several scenes with cheap tungsten spotlights. Since its for a metal band, all wear black t-shirts.
But, they look red, or better brown. (whereas guitars and leather stays black, so its not a colorgrading issue).
Since the BMPCC are very sensitiv to IR and tungsten light has a lot of IR and some black clothing are brighter under IR light (those which are colored red before black) I think IR filter is necessary for shooting with tungsten light.
Can someone confirm this?
Is this a problem only with 100W to 400W spots from DIY market or generally, even with 1kW ARRI etc.?
I mean IR stop filter of course. Not IR filter for IR-photographie.
