The following video presents Cinema VariCam LT IR Test Shooting:
The Cinema VariCam LT has an integrated, detachable Infrared (IR) cut filter. Users can do the IR shooting to record 4K images in dark unlit nightscapes. This is ideal for capturing nocturnal wildlife and other scenes with no illumination. Also, the IR filter can be used in daylight as a creative tool for achieving a unique look.”
