DIY Night Vision

i tried this using the exact same method you demonstrated here. although the light was clearly visible when i pointed the flashlight directly at the camera, there was hardly any visible light when i pointed it elsewhere. do you need a special kind of flashlight? celophane? help please.

very nice video, I will defiantly try this! I hope you earn lots from this!

thanks for the tip, very helpful. *5

I think the light coming from the camera's lcd might be pretty bright if its real dark out, but cool idea, just needs some modifications. keep it up

There will be nice videos on metacafe in nightvideo :D

5 stars from me too

give that a try. Cool video. Thanks!

Would it work if I just used 10 sheets of blue selefane or do you need the red?

well done

i have a jvc hd7 camera and i have a remote that had inferred led so if i got a lot of them would it work as a light even tho my camera dose not have night mode

My camera (Canon S3 IS) can pick up IR (I have tested it with my TV remote), but when I do this to my flashlight, it doesn't pick up anything. Have I done something wrong?

I cut out all the circles and put them in a small black film container and all i do is slide it on the front of my flashlight, works great with my infrared webcam

Are all digicams from the 90ies suitable for this? or only specific brands?

This is such a simple and great way for someone at home to make one! good job =)

I'm realy thinking about making these but i was wondering the blue and red cellaphane is that the stuff that the other bloke uses to make thermal imaging goggles in day light he uses lighting gel eg congo blue is that the same stuff cherrs

its obviously that u can see in the dark when u r filming when u turn on the light!

if it has long range it would be bettter then nite vishin bout in stores,,,

Do you think this would work alongside kipkay's 10$ IR Goggles? if so very cheap nite-vis lol

man, you're genius!

NICE great job 5/5

With a LED torch light?

there is a ghost !!! look 74 sec... on the window

I saw a GHOST!

it at your TV and it automatically changes channels!

this is great, now I can rob a bank yessssss

getting a coment from kipkay, great idea 5*

used only red and green cellophane. what you are seeing is actually blue light photo not infrared

Or you could just use the damn flashlight.

you could just skip the part about putting the colored cellophane in to block the flashlight. Just turn the flashlight on with the clear lens and you'll have "night vision," without the use of a camera too.

i combined the flashlight from this video with the goggles from kipkay's infared goggle video

You took the music from the freeware game witches lol
